HBO
The new HBO drama series "Succession" is getting mixed reviews. Some critics find it tired and boring, but some say that it does an excellent job representing privilege.
"Succession," which debuted on HBO Sunday night, follows the Roy family, which controls one of the biggest media and entertainment conglomerates in the world.
The series comes from the producers of Oscar nominee "The Big Short" (2015) and follows the Roy family as they navigate the future of their company and themselves after their father, who is getting older, starts to step away from running the company.
The show currently has a 73% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes and a 75% audience score. Some critics love it, especially once you get a few episodes into the first season. But other critics say it's a "slog" of a series, and that it isn't a very original take on a story about the extremely wealthy.
"Succession" stars Brian Cox, Hiam Abbass, Kieran Culkin, Sarah Snook and Jeremy Strong.
Here's what critics have to say about HBO's "Succession"- the good and the bad.
