13. SUCCESSION

Chosen by Piers Morgan

A brilliantly savage and unfiltered dissection of a staggeringly dysfunctional dynastic family run by a tyrannical overlord. Starts quite slowly, and weirdly, but grows into a monstrously entertaining series. Some think it’s based on the Murdochs (I know them all well, and they’re not like this.. ), others think it’s the Trumps (I know THEM all well too, and they’re not like this..), but at its heart, this is really about any rich, powerful family, and how f***ed up they can get when simmering tensions, overbearing parents and fierce sibling rivalries explode.
