Steve Krakauer previously mentioned in his newsletter [couldn't find the specific link to share] that media folks watch and tweet about it because they assume it's about Rupert Murdoch and his family. I watch but don't tweet about it, and I don't know anyone who watches, either. [Probably don't count because I am not American or European.]

Yes you're right, I think that is a big reason!

I'm so glad someone else admitted that Tom is their favourite character. On my TL everyone's still being weirdly supportive of Shiv and she's a lost cause to me now. I also *had* to write about Succession this week - it's just irresistible, but not many of my IRL friends watch, or care, about it at all!

Yes! I think Shiv has become too blank and soulless to be credible. Link your succession piece!

She only ever acts out of spite now. I can't get behind her anymore.

“They only take walk-ins for bar reservations under four”: could you translate that into English, please?

Ha, I wrote that the wrong way round. They only take reservations for bookings over four. So everything smaller is a walk in! (Wednesday evening brain fog)
