The TVI Take
The Roy family's fight for control of their media empire. Exceptional cognitive engagement from the narrative complexity and moral ambiguity.
The writing — particularly Jesse Armstrong's finales — is as good as anything in television. Educational about corporate governance, media power, and family psychology. The ending is among television's finest.
