WARNING: This article contains SPOILERS for Succession's series finale.

Succession’s series finale was far from a happy one, but some hilarious Succession finale memes are trying to make the show’s ending a bit more positive. Succession had been setting up a tragic ending for a while, and the series finale did not disappoint on that matter. None of the Roy siblings got what they really wanted, and Kendall Roy suffered his biggest loss in the entire series.

Succession made a story about three billionaire siblings competing for an empire into an engaging, human journey. As a result, all Succession characters have their own fan bases, which often leads to hilarious memes and viral tweets. Succession may be a drama, but it was also one of the funniest shows on television. Here are 15 Succession series finale memes that perfectly summarize the show’s ending.

15 Is Succession Worth Watching?

Succession can already be considered one of the best TV dramas of all time, but the series finale got long-time fans wondering whether they should even recommend Succession to others. Twitter user @successtextpost summarized that feeling with a hilarious Succession finale version of a classic internet meme. Succession is worth the watch, but new viewers must be aware of just how heartbreaking the show can be before starting it.

14 Succession's Ending Board Meeting Was Very Agitated

Succession’s series finale had yet another board vote, except that this one would define the fates of Kendall, Shiv, and Roman forever. Watching the Roys siblings argue and hurt each other in a separate room during the GoJo deal voting was one of the saddest Succession moments, if not the saddest. However, while the Roy siblings were making quite a scene in the other room, what was the rest of Waystar Royco shareholders doing? This meme by @germystrong based on a picture shared by Succession star Arian Moayed has the answer.

13 Kendall Roy's Ending Was Succession's Saddest

Succession had many moments in which Kendall Roy would just walk, leading viewers to ponder what exactly Kendall was thinking during those scenes. Succession’s series finale used that same trick for Kendall’s final scene on the show, as noted in this meme shared by @successtextpost. Kendall had been through a lot in Succession, but forever losing his chance of becoming Waystar Royco’s CEO was his biggest defeat. Becoming the successor was Kendall Roy’s only goal since he was 7, which is why Ken was so devastated in the finale.

12 Succession Fans Have Strong Opinions On Tom Becomes CEO Twist

Tom Wambsgans becomes CEO in Succession’s series finale, which would naturally leads to strong reactions from viewers. Whereas long-time Tom fans had been placing their bets on Shiv’s husband becoming CEO for a while, those who were on "team Kendall" or "team Shiv" are surely disappointed. Obviously, the definition of victory and defeat in Succession can be very complicated. Still, seeing Tom come out on top while all of the Roy siblings, especially Ken and Shiv, lost so much, can be very frustrating. This hilarious meme shared by @amandayoungdyke exemplifies it.

11 Wait, Did Connor Roy Win In Succession's Finale?

While Kendall, Shiv, and Roman were fighting each other for the future of Waystar Royco, Connor Roy was getting ready to move to Slovenia. Granted, Succession did not reveal whether Mencken actually becomes president. However, if Mencken does win the election, Connor Roy will get the future he wanted. As noted in this meme by @tenderfates, the "Conheads" may be the real winners of Succession after all.

10 What Happens To Kendall After Succession's Finale?

Kendall Roy and his siblings had many “final straw” moments. As such, even though the latest argument between Ken and his siblings was quite intense, the family may still get back together at some point. Not even Logan and Ewan ever stopped talking to each other for good. It would not be at all surprising if Kendall Roy does something similar to what this meme by @hellyshiv describes. Unfortunately, Succession ending with season 4 means viewers will never get to see Ken as “Uncle Ken."

9 Roman Roy Has Seen Better Days

Succession season 4 saw Roman Roy struggle a lot, especially after Logan Roy died in episode 3. Roman had been lying to others and himself about his feelings – “I pre-grieved” – which led to this breakdown at Logan’s funeral. At the beginning of Succession season 4, episode 10, Roman was at his lowest. Injured and with no patience for business plays, Roman had no place to go but his mother's house. This meme shared by @kennysroys perfectly captures what Roman looked like for most of the Succession finale.

8 Tom & Greg Won In Succession's Finale (But Did They Really?)

Tom and Greg are arguably the biggest winners of the Succession finale. However, realistically, both of them are now pawns in Lukas Matsson’s game. It seems like Greg will continue subservient to Tom, who treated Greg as a piece of furniture he could own. Therefore, Greg’s status on Succession did not change that much. Likewise, Tom may be Waystar Royco’s new CEO, but Lukas Matsson will be the one calling the shots. Essentially, Matsson now has his own Pain and Panic duo at Waystar, as nothing in this meme tweeted by @MGR1711

7 Kendal Roy Is... Just Ken

At the end of Succession season 4’s finale, Kendall Roy has no company to run, no job, no siblings, no friends, no family, nothing. Of course, Kendall Roy is now a few billion richer than he was at the beginning of the show. Still, Ryan Gosling’s description of Barbie’s Ken perfectly summarizes what is left for Kendall Roy after Succession’s final episode. The similarities between Barbie’s Ken and Succession’s Ken were noted in this tweet by @ongsuns.

6 Do Roman & Gerri Get Together In Succession? It's Complicated

Succession star J. Smith-Cameron, who plays Gerri, made her own meme out of the Succession finale. Succession’s ending strongly suggests that Roman and Gerri will never be together, namely because of how Roman reacted to seeing Gerri at Waystar. Still, Roman drinking a martini, Gerri’s favorite drink, in his final Succession scene may suggest otherwise. Whether Gerri would accept her ex back is difficult to say.

5 Succession's Series Finale Proved This Is Tom Wambsgans' World

Succession fancams have been around since the show began, and Tom Wambsgans just got a new one. Twitter user @Omiikage shared a Tom Succession fancam celebrating Tom’s victory in Succession’s series finale, quickly summarizing the character’s entire journey on the show. This Tom fancam also highlights Tom and Greg’s relationship, which persevered through four seasons of Succession. Tom Wambsgans is only party of the Roy family by wedding, but Succession may have been his story all along.

4 Tom Wambsgans Won Succession's Game Of Thrones

Similarities between Game of Thrones and Succession have always existed, and it could not have been different in the finale. Succession’s final episode did crown Waystar Royco’s new “king,” after all. While some may argue that Tom becoming CEO is similar to Bran becoming king, Succession’s new CEO made a lot of sense in the context of the story. Throughout four seasons, Tom made a name for himself in the world of Succession, acquiring titles such as “Protector of ATN” and “Breaker of Greggs.” This meme by @JamieCinematics could not be more accurate.

3 What Succession Season 5 Would Have Been Like

One of Tom’s first decisions as Waystar Royco’s CEO was to keep Gerri around. After being fired twice in Succession, Gerri keeps winning. It would have been interesting to see how Tom and Gerri, which is a quite fascinating combination of names, would run Waystar together. However, Succession season 5 is not happening. This meme by @queenxofpeace suggests that Gerri will be the one really calling the shots, which would not be that surprising. Gerri has far more experience at Waystar than Tom, plus Tom Wambsgans is no Logan Roy.

2 This Is What Really Happened In Succession's Finale

Succession ended on a sad note, not to say a tragic one. Still, this video edit by @leylanocontext pictures an extended, funnier Succession ending. Inspired by Shrek’s “I’m a believer” montage, this edit hilariously imagines what happened to each Succession character after the series finale. Maybe Roman Roy is indeed trying to get his script for Star Wars: Episode X made, Shiv and Tom had the worst vowels renewal party ever, and Jess now has a much better boss in Rava.

1 Kendall Roy Was A Little Confused During Succession's Finale

This edit shared by @hardest_my based on a meme by @successtextpost recalls one of the most absurd Succession finale moments. Kendall, who once saw himself as morally superior compared to his father, has now become just like Logan, if not worse. Kendall was willing to lie about whether he killed a young man just so that he could become Waystar Royco’s CEO. Kendall’s little confusion over whether he killed someone shows that Shiv may have made the right call. Regardless, this Succession meme puts a funny spin on a rather sad moment.
