Thanks, Tim, Succession is perfect for me as far as the next Box Set goes. It’s funny, when you’re less prolific, I find myself thinking “Tim is so quiet...”, but when you rev up, I scramble (often unsuccessfully) to keep up. I shall also try to share although my circle of family and friends partake in little culture at all.
Succession for the next Box Set is perfect! I am so excited about it's return and now I'm REALLY excited! I will keep your comment about sharing posts in mind, but all my tv loving friends (who are from the good ole Bastard Machine days) are already subscribers here! Is that too many exclamation points?!
All of these ideas sound great, Tim. I am actually caught up on Succession so I am totally in for the Box Set!
I want to highlight this:
“With the collapsing value of social media — particularly one’s return on investment these days — having a vital community of readers talking amongst themselves is of great value.”
It’s astounding how much social media is OVER. All that’s left (at least for me) is the lingering addiction. You are absolutely right that conversations on Substack (particularly paid) are richer and kinder. I have promised myself to improve my media diet. Read more long articles where I learn something and save my comments for nice communities like this one. I basically have set up my escape hatch so it’s probably time to move on from Twitter. We have definitely reached an inflection point.
I’ve been prepping my when’s-the-next-box-set comment for a while now and wanted to post in parallel with a what-about-“Severance” post, but could never find the appropriate time to do it...
I’m happy I waited though, cuz I am REALLY looking forward to the upcoming (final I think) season of “Succession”...
Finding out that we’re gonna “box set” it is a very pleasant and unexpected bonus...
So I haven’t watched Succession at all... it just did not appeal despite the critical acclaim. Is it unwise to come in to it cold for the box set?
One more reason to look forward to “Succession”. 😊
Oooooh --good choice to launch the Box Set! Is AMA coming back, or replaced with Chat? Just curious 🤔

Yay, Box Set! (Tim, please don’t stress about posting later than Monday, should that happen. Main thing is that your head doesn’t explode.)
That ‘time-shift co-watch’ idea is completely crazypants and I can’t wait.

CANT WAIT!!!
(Oh yeah: what about “Severance”😁)
I'm really happy for this Box Set! It really helped elevate my viewing of "Station Eleven" and others. Plus, "Succession" is one hell of a show!
