“succession“, his award-winning TV series HBO, returns to the small screen with its fourth and final season. The new cycle starts on the American network on March 26, but shortly before the premiere, critics who watched the first four episodes speak of “one of the greatest achievements of television.”

The story continues with the events of the Season 3 finale, when Tom Wabsgans (Matthew McFadden) informed Logan Roy (Brian Cox) of his children’s plan to prevent Waystar Royco, the family media conglomerate, from merging with GoJo.

When the company slips out of their hands, Kendall (Jeremy Strong), Shiv (Sarah Snook) and Roman Roy (Kieran Culkin) must continue their fight against their father Logan in a power struggle.

“Vivid performances by the children of the Roy family, which are an amazing master class of emotions. Feelings that coexisted with the despair of being accepted by the patriarch. Everyone’s performance is top notch, from director Marc Mailond to composer Nicolas Britel,” IGN reported on its website.

Empire magazine’s five-star review wrote: “Your jaw will drop when you watch the final season. If the formula for the first four episodes is retained, then the series will certainly have to be considered one of the greatest achievements of television.

The Entertainment Weekly website also gave a positive review: “Screenwriter Jesse Armstrong takes impressive risks without sacrificing the character dynamics that make him so enjoyable.”

In Greece, the new series of episodes of The Heir will premiere on Friday, July 4 at 22:00 on NOVA (Novacinema4).
