Summary

Amanda, Milly, Alise, and Sami react to the New Yorker profile of “Succession” actor Jeremy Strong and the bizarre reaction from celebrities coming to his defense. Strong is accused of being unusual and hard to work, yet people from Aaron Sorkin to Anne Hathaway have responded as if the gentle ribbing was a character assassination. Has the fact that so many public men have been exposed as awful monsters made people overly reactive to minor call-outs? We discuss. Then, they each share their hottest “Succession” takes.
