'Succession' Final Season
There's some sad news for fans of HBO's Succession. The show's creator and showrunner Jesse Armstrong revealed that the upcoming fourth season will be its last. "You know, there's a promise in the title of 'Succession.' I've never thought this could go on forever," he said in an interview with the New Yorker. He would go on to say, "And I feel sad, and I have the circus-has-left feeling that everyone gets who works on a production that's good, and this particularly so." The series first launched in 2018, and the final season will begin on March 26.

As far as Corden's slot on the network goes, Paramount Global and CBS are rebooting Comedy Central's @midnight game show.

The project is still in its infancy, but the first episode is being written by Jason Fuchs, who also was a co-producer on It Chapter Two.
