Succession is a show that needs some time to take off - even though from a technical standpoint, there's nothing to complain about: The acting, cinematography, score, etc. Have been great from the start.
But the entertainment factor wasn't quite there in the first few episodes - which has changed now. The previous episode was a huge step up already, but this one was even better in my opinion. I'm surprised to see it not being rated higher.
The main storyline takes a step back, which is absolutely fine - because we finally get to see more of the humour that was already sprinkled throughout the previous episodes.
"Austerlitz" is a hilarious trainwreck and each character gets to have their moments. There were several moments when I had to laugh out loud and I am finally beginning to see why so many people love this show so much.
