Succession ended its four-season run last year with a whole pile of Emmy victories to go with its high ratings and universal acclaim, but until now the only way to watch this series has been to stream it from Max, watch on actual cable, pay too much for your own streaming copy from a digital retailer, or opt for a DVD set. It’s rare to see a show as big as Succession release on DVD without a Blu-ray version as well. But that’s going to change soon, because HBO is going to be releasing Succession: The Complete Series on Blu-ray, and you can preorder it right now. Unsurprisingly, it’s more expensive than the DVD version, which is currently on sale for $45 at Amazon, but it’ll offer a better overall viewing experience.
$78 (was $95)
Succession is the story of Logan Roy, head of one of the world’s largest media conglomerates, who just announced his imminent retirement. Now his kids, and more than a few others, have to spend four seasons jockeying for position in hopes of becoming the new boss while also earning a little bit of love from daddy.
While there’s no release date yet for this set, it’s expected to arrive sometime this year. As the title indicates, the set will include all four brilliant seasons of this darkly comic family drama, along with a variety of extras to go with. This set is currently listed for $78 on Amazon, but there’s a decent chance that will change before it actually launches. With Amazon’s preorder price guarantee, you’ll get Succession for the lowest price offered between the time you order and release.
Since it’ll be a minute before you actually get to have this Blu-ray set, there are other ways to get your Succession fix. Such as by reading the episode screenplays, which HBO released in book form last year not long after the series finale. Each season has its own book, and the books for Seasons 2 and 3 are included in Amazon’s current massive B2G1 free sale. Why only those two? I don’t know, I’m just the messenger. Season 1 also has a coupon for a dollar off you’ll want to click before you check out.
