No

I really like the show, it has some all time great episodes. But I honestly have no idea where the mythical level of hype has come from.

What shows do you overwhelmingly put over it for comparison?

I mean, we will see how the season pans out, but I wouldn’t necessarily even put succession in a Mount Rushmore of shows that have been aired this year

I still consider it must see tv, but it’s pretty much on par with something like white lotus or severance in my mind

disagree heavily it’s the best show currently on Tv Easily The bear Barry and severance are all the next 3 but they aren’t on the same level imo.

Ok? And I’d put those shows at the same level in my opinion (since this is a thread on individual opinions)

I’m allowed to really like the show without thinking it’s unequivocally the top 4 greatest shows of all time lol

I’m assuming this year includes shows from 2022 because nothing in 2023 so far is on Succession’s level

It being different mostly, IMO. Like it has a different feel to it and in the age of infinite versions of the same thing that goes a long way.

Also, nice mix of prestige quality and moment to moment laughs/entertainment. And that damn score.

If anything does it would be the dialogue. Its far better than most of its prestige competition
