What was Succession all about?

Succession revolved around the Roy family, a clan of powerful media moguls based in the Big Apple, led by the Rupert Murdoch-like Logan Roy (portrayed by the legendary Scottish actor Brian Cox). He was the mastermind behind the global media giant known as Waystar Royco and is getting ready to pass on the reins to his children. Cue the power struggle. But just when you think you've got it all figured out, Logan had a change of heart and decides to stick around. And he seems to be thriving on power, improving health-wise. The fourth season ended the story of the show. Succession is almost certain to sweep the Primetime Emmys later this year.
