[Editor’s note: The following contains spoilers for Succession, Season 4 Episode 3, “Connor’s Wedding.”]
The king is dead — the king, that is, of backstabbing, blunt negotiating, and withholding affection from his children. Logan Roy (Brian Cox)’s death in the fourth season was as unexpected for the audience as it was for the characters of the show, who had weathered past health scares from which Logan had always bounced back. But no one lives forever, not even the scions of media empires, and one fateful trip to an airplane bathroom was Logan’s last.
The remaining episodes of Succession will reveal just what kind of chaos is in store, as the remaining Roys face the consequences, personally and professionally, of Logan’s passing. But for now, let us remember the character for perhaps his most profound legacy, as one of television’s most gifted and beloved spewers of profanity and other slams. Below is just a taste of the invectives which Logan Roy has slung on camera at the people closest to him, from business associates to his own children.
