Critics

Audience

A wealthy family faces an uncertain future when its aging patriarch begins stepping back from the media empire they control. As relatives and associates weigh their ambitions, loyalties, and rivalries, family tensions become inseparable from the struggle for influence.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you like tense family dramas, dark humor, and power struggles, especially in the vein of The Bear; Not for you if you need likable characters or fast momentum.
