And I fucking love both.

(Although I'll argue a little about Succession being grimdark. It's bleak as hell, but it's also fairly comedic. Or maybe my sense of humor needs a tweak. But "grimdark" to me means absolute joyless-ness, and Succession does make me laugh a fair amount.)

Yeah, I think Game of Thrones is the grimdark version of Succession!

Yet Arrested Development was better.

Agree. I feel like Succession is trying to be Arrested Development but ~prestigious~ instead of good.

(Anonymous) 2023-05-11 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
Nah. There are two key distinctions between them, and neither has to do with "prestige".

One, Arrested Development was made by an American sitcom guy, and Succession was made by a British sitcom/dramedy guy.

Two, Arrested Development was made during and is of the Bush era, and Succession was made during and is of the Trump and post-Trump era.

This is one of those takes that's genuinely fun for a laugh, but the more seriously you take it the worse it gets. Like, yeah kind of, but also, no not really.

Both shows are absolutely fantastic IMO, in very different ways.

I disagree that Succession is grimdark though. I can see why some people feel it is, but I disagree.

Well damnit, now I'm convinced to watch Succession.
