Connor was the smartest one of them all. Basically just used Dad's money to do whatever and buy a hot ass wife.

Matsson wanted an ass kissing yes man, he hinted he was going to go deep and clean house once he took over, and didn't want a "partner" but an "employee". Matsson and Shiv would have butted heads over control of everything.

Right, but he could have chosen anyone. Why the husband of Shiv? Especially one you just told you wanted to fuck his wife.

Because this way you get to bang his wife without having to deal with her bullshit personality as your CEO, as well as the potential HR nightmare that'd cause. It was also to see Tom's reaction to it so he could get a sense of what a "yes" man he is.

Terrible fucking ending to an otherwise fantastic show.
How fucking dumb was it that Shiv took the position she did? It made ZERO FUCKING SENSE. And then the waiter guy that died ends up coming up OUT OF NOWHERE to make her and Roman literally act out of character. Even if they thought he was a monster, voting against him was NOT IN THEIR INTEREST.
I have lost all hope for any media that comes from a leftist network. I really hate to go there, but its true. That creative decision to shortstop Ken at the end after all of the development you gave to him, might be the dumbest fucking thing Ive ever watched on TV. And for what? For Tom to be the "Successor"? WHY? He didnt grow or do anything besides suck dick the entire show. The Roys lost, thats what the show was about. There was no successor. Awful.
edit: The dorky director guy with the glasses turned me off when I saw him talking on an after the episode video, I was surprised that the show was so good with a guy like him involved. Welp.

They backbit and fought against each other at literally every opportunity in the entire show. The instant one of them was offered something that might elevate them against the other sibs, they did it. Every time. The idea of them three actually working together to run the company was always going to be laughable. The finale was just the last time they fucked each other.
And how are they losing here anyway? They're going to get 10-25 billion dollars each for this. They're INSANELY rich.

Thats whats frustrating is the show NEVER talks about a will in terms of what the kids get in terms of assets after the sale of the company. Obviously they are probably going to get a significant part of it, but there was never any discussion of what happens after the sale.
Either way, its not my fault Im disappointed. The show is the one who propped Ken up, and gave him this arc. It is just so dumb to pull the rug out like that. It was a sad, empty ending, and they didnt have to do it.

You've missed the entire point of the whole season/show. None of them were qualified. Logan literally told them in the karaoke bar that they aren't serious people.
You aren't meant to root for any of them to "win" especially not the guy that killed someone

Did you watch the same show as the rest of us? Greg was awesome. As for Tom, he was ready to go to prison as the sin eater to protect the family and company. Tom is an odd person, but not worthless.

I loved Greg. He was a great character. But I sure as hell wouldnt let him run a multi billion dollar company.

I wouldn't let Greg run the snow cone stand in the theme parks.

Lol, everything Tom does is to advance his own position. It had nothing to do with protecting the company. That was the effect but it wasn't the motivation
It's not like being crowned king of Westeros. CEO for Matsson is a yes man position
