    I can't see how any other actress would pull it off. Playing a spoiled princess is easy, but playing a truly emotionally stunted yet intelligent child of an oligarch requires much more. She's perfect for the role.

      This is always the same shit. A lot of different actresses could pull this off. The entire cast could be different and you would masturbate about it the same way you do it now. It's the writing.

    Incredibly skilled actor. She has this way of dominating the scenes she's in just with her facial expressions.

    One of the best parts about Sara Snook's acting are her facial expressions. She can tell so much with just a look. Like her initial reaction to when Kendall taking her hand during Connor's pre=-wedding reception last episode, you could tell she knew something was wrong.

    Shiv to me is so transparent. the truth is she was never the alpha with Tom. she picked tom because they had this unspoken understanding that outside the home she would be Khal Drogo, but inside the home Khaleesi (Tom) was kind of the life blood of the couple. he was her hype man so she could be confident in her ability to lead. without her hype man she is kind of a unfocused mess.
    when Shiv stopped protecting tom and abused his end of the relationship what did Tom do? He fucked her over with brutal efficiency.
    part of her is turned on by what he did, but her ego can't let her be the number 2 in the relationship as well as play 2nd fiddle to her brothers.
    part of her knows she fucked up and that her wanting a open relationship and saying hurtful shit to Tom under the guise of maintaining that dynamic is what got her in this mess, but she just can't bring herself to admit fault cause it's not something her father would do and she like Logan sees it as weakness to be honest.
    tom on the other hand can be honest with her (like he did on the beach) and it's that brutal honesty that is her biggest weakness. she has been called every curse word under the sun, that shit doesn't cut deep, but someone being honest to her face about how they really feel without yelling or trying to be me and pointing out her shitty behaviour....she doesn't have an answer for any of that because honesty isn't in the Roy playbook.
    it's actually why I feel most sad for shiv. she could be so happy with Tom if she stopped treating the relationship like a struggle for power and just focused on being a single team with Tom.

      She admits as much to him in S1: she was in a very bad place before he came along, he picked her up, she became dependent on him and it freaked her out that she needed him and couldn't function behind him. So she obviously tried to control him and one-up him to make it more bearable for her because she can't stand being the one with less power in the relationship, she needs to have the upper hand. And for all her being a Roy and socially above him, she point blank admits that he's her emotional crutch and she needs him to function, so he's the more powerful one in her eyes. If he also becomes successful in the company, she loses the only leverage she has over him, which is why she pulls her shit every time something good happens to him

    This is such a great channel.

One example here was certain podcasts, which I also heard Margot Robbie leaned on to get into Barbie.

    The Shiv Roy character is definitely no side piece. Totally stands on its own just like all of the characters. It’s hard to write all characters to stand on their own, but Succession does not play favorites.

    She low key won although by proxy of her husband. She’s not happy about it but ultimately when she saw her brother kick his feet up on poppas desk that was it! Her brothers never supported her and always saw her as an obstacle or challenge so it wasn’t a total surprise to see her heel turn in the end. Tom was the only man in her life that ever supported her potential and knew she was a force to be reckoned with. Her performance was amazing and I can’t wait to see what she does next! I pray she gets an Emmy for the final season 4! 🤓

    I don't see a killer wardrobe. Or even a killer executive, much less killer thinker, intellect, or visionary. Hardly. The role seems more to me as the kind of daughter who's not very gifted, but extremely entitled with an ego overfed by being a spoiled child. I keep trying to find one of the four offspring who might be considered gifted or experienced or visionary, but alas, I can't pick out an offspring who really would shine for the company and the country if inheriting the corporation. Even all together. . . .inadequate. Which doesn't mean that their father was king. He sure didn't know the first thing about passing the company on.

    1:31 -- how disappointing. In the show, Shiv's hypocritical "all white men are privileged and evil" quips seemed to be rightfully portrayed as hollow and (in terms of "end-of-the-world" presidential elections) unnecessarily histrionic (given how often and easily she flipped politically, and how often she used women and minorities as props whenever it best suited her personal career growth only to immediately throw them under the bus when needed).
    But, I guess the actress genuinely believes such brainless racism and sexism as "white men bad and powerful".
