After Logan’s dramatic decision to consider Matsson’s Waystar Royco offer at the end of season three, Inheritance in season 4, the Roy siblings are more united (that is, against their father) than ever. In other words, new episodes of one of the so-called the best HBO Max series Around will chronicle the Roy family’s civil war – and we can’t wait to see who (if anyone) Logan appoints as his successor after three exceptional seasons of drama.
