On ‘Succession,’ Logan Roy Just Died — And Grief Is The Last Thing On People’s Minds
In a shocking turn of events, the third episode of season four of the hit HBO series ‘Succession’ saw the sudden death of its main character, media mogul Logan Roy. While fans have been anticipating the patriarch’s demise for some time now, the news has still left many viewers reeling – yet grief is not the only emotion they are feeling.
This episode, titled ‘A Family Gathering,’ opens with the Roy family coming together for a weekend at their patriarch’s country house. The plot then takes a dramatic turn when Logan suddenly collapses and dies shortly after takeoff from New Jersey’s Teterboro Airport. The cause of his death has yet to be confirmed.
While the episode deals with the aftermath of Logan’s death, it’s clear that grief is not at the forefront of everyone’s mind. The Roy family, for one, is consumed with their own interests and agendas – they are, after all, a family of ruthless individuals constantly vying for power and control.
Media analysts and industry insiders, meanwhile, are speculating about what the future holds for Logan’s company, Waystar Royco. With Logan gone, who will take control of the company? And will it be business as usual, or will the sudden shift in power shake things up for the media empire?
Fans of the show are also reacting on social media, with many expressing shock and sadness at Logan’s death. But there are also those who are excited to see how the show’s creators will handle this major plot twist. Will they continue to explore the dysfunctional dynamics of the Roy family, or will they take the show in a new direction?
Overall, the death of Logan Roy has left ‘Succession’ fans with more questions than answers – and grief is just one of the many emotions they are grappling with. As the show moves forward without its central figure, it remains to be seen how the characters, the story, and the audience will evolve.
