The power struggles and betrayals within a dysfunctional global media dynasty as the aging patriarch’s health declines and his children jockey for control.
A savage, Shakespearean comedy of manners that captures the rot of the modern billionaire class; the scripts are breathtakingly profane and the ensemble acting is of the highest order. Occasionally repetitive in its narrative loops, but overall a landmark of the streaming era.
