I wish I could remake theMeet the Parentsposterto say Meet the Pierces.
Alas, I am both lazy and busy trying to see both Annette Bening movies at TIFF.
OntonightsSuccession, we finally met the mysterious Pierce family.
Are they chaotic good?
Or just chaotic neutral, which in itself feels just a little nefarious?
Heres whos up and whos down after dinner at the Pierce compound and the PGM acquisition.
Theres even a troubling discord in his marriage.
And its not even a melodramatic, hes won, but at what cost?
And in return hes a step closer to keeping his empire.
Everyones worn out and depressed, but theyre still jockeying to be his favorite.
There is something a little snide, a little snobby about Nan Pierce.
In two more words: totally twisted.
But hes chipper as ever here!
Cousin Greg will outlast us all.
Even though someone like Rhea might wield more power, Naomi has the Pierce last name.
Rhea Jarrell
Theres something extremely slippery about Rhea.

He won over weirdo Ben Franklinlookalike Maxim Pierce.

When you laugh, Logan tells him, hey do it at the same volume as everyone else.
We didnt get you from a hyena farm.
If I could marry any line in HBO history, in might be that one.
Maxim Pierce
Listen, I love this Benjamin Franklinlooking weirdo!
Maxim seems like that guy!
Kendall asking Naomi if shes a poetess
I mean, JesusChrist.
