This article contains spoilers for the Succession finale.
Succession’s harrowing four-season run came to an end with Tom Wambsgans (Matthew Macfadyen) inserted as CEO of the newly-acquired GoJo version of Waystar Royco. After at least a couple of years of in-fighting, betrayals, and fleeting moments of happiness, the Roys have been relieved of their only lasting legacy and their ties to family patriarch Logan Roy (Brian Cox). The climactic scene during the final boardroom vote in which Shiv (Sarah Snook) decides to go back on her word and vote for the sale of the company to Lukas Mattson (Alexander Skarsgård) rather than keep the conglomerate in the hands of her brother Kendall (Jeremy Strong) was a tragic, pitiful display of shoddy family dynamics crashing and falling apart in real time. It showed all three siblings at their most emotionally raw, petty, and childish, and it wasn’t a pleasant scene to live vicariously through.

The old Leo Tolstoy adage illuminates that "each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way." In the span of its four seasons, "Succession" focused on a particular miserable American clan, the obscenely wealthy and influential Roys.
The show charted the schemes and (self-)sabotages of the Roy children as they warred over their potential inheritance: CEO control of the Waystar RoyCo media company, run by their (now-late) patriarch Logan Roy (Brian Cox). Across toxic intrigue and backstabbing, the three kids, Kendall (Jeremy Strong), Roman (Kieran Culkin), and Shiv (Sarah Snook), fought tooth and nail for the throne.
In the wake of Logan's death and the series finale, the Roy family tree is still not doing all right. There are tantalizing questions about the third-generation Roys, the grandkids, who are more vulnerable under their family dysfunction and the world order that their Roy forebearers enabled. While the finale does not...

Spoilers for "Succession" follow.
Well, it's official. Jeryd Mencken (Justin Kirk) will be the next President of the United States — thankfully not in this reality. Back in "Succession" season 3's "What It Takes," the fascist Congressman was recruited to run as the Republican nominee for president by the Roy family (mostly Logan and Roman). In the latest episode, fittingly titled "America Decides," he's elected president -- but not with the will of the people.
On election night, Mencken supporters firebomb a polling office in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Wisconsin has become a swing state since the 2010s but Milwaukee is a blue firewall, so most of the destroyed votes surely would've gone to Mencken's opponent Daniel Jiménez (Elliot Villar). The lack of those votes is enough to flip Wisconsin to Mencken and give him the 270 electoral votes he needs for victory.

We have some bad news for fans of Mighty Ducks: Game Changers and Big Shot.
Disney+ announced Friday that both series had been canceled after their second seasons.
The news is hardly surprising.
Some big changes are happening at Disney, including the decision to space out the Marvel Cinematic Universe series and movies.
In June, Peter Rice exited Disney. According to The Hollywood Reporter, a source said that the second-season renewals for both series were an example of his "questionable deal-making."
That would suggest that neither series performed well enough during their freshman seasons to warrant renewals.
The issue with streaming services is that the viewership statistics are rarely made public, meaning that we only typically hear about a show's numbers if it is successful.
Even then, it's hard to judge what will happen.
For example, the series premiere of the Gossip Girl reboot on HBO Max was said to...

Disney+ has canceled the John Stamos-led sports comedy-drama Big Shot, as well as The Mighty Ducks: Changers, both after two seasons, Deadline has confirmed.
Created by David E. Kelley, Dean Lorey and Brad Garrett, with Lorey serving as showrunner, Big Shot centered on Marvyn Korn (Stamos). After he is ousted from his position as head coach for an NCAA basketball team, he is given a chance at redemption with a coaching position at Westbrook, an elite private high school for girls, and soon learns that the teenage players require empathy and vulnerability – foreign concepts for the stoic Coach Korn.

"The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers" on Disney+ did a fine job of reviving the beloved family friendly sports franchise for a new generation. The series basically took the bones of the original movie and expanded them into a 10-episode story arc that took the ultra-competitive, powerhouse youth hockey team that the Mighty Ducks had become, had a scrappy new team of underdogs knock that chip off their shoulder, and brought them back down to Earth for a little reminder that hockey is also supposed to be fun.
Led by 12-year old Evan Morrow (Brady Noon of "Good Boys") and his mother/makeshift coach Alex (Lauren Graham), complete with a little help from crotchety former coach Gordon Bombay (Emilio Estevez), the team known as the Don't Bothers squared off with the haughty, elite youth hockey team and reclaimed the name of the Mighty Ducks for themselves, albeit in an unofficial match...

Emilio Estevez Not Returning for ‘The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers’ Season 2 Over Vaccine Requirement
Emilio Estevez will not be returning for Season 2 of Disney Plus’ “The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers,” Variety has confirmed.
According to a source close to the production, Estevez’s departure is due to a disagreement over ABC Signature’s Covid-19 vaccination requirement, as he would not confirm that he would comply with the policy. Therefore, the studio decided not to renew his contract for Season 2. Under the recent return-to-work agreement between studios and unions, production for “The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers” requires vaccination against Covid-19 for everyone in Zone A, which includes all actors and crew members who come into contact with them.
It is unclear exactly how Estevez’s character will be written off of the show. Disney had no comment on his departure from the show and a representative for Estevez did not respond to a request for comment.

The Mighty Ducks will be forging ahead without the sole link to the movies.
Per Deadline, Emilio Estevez will not be returning as Coach Bombay for the second season of the TV adaptation of the series.
The outlet states Disney decided against picking up the actor's contract for more episodes after much back and forth regarding the series' mandate for Covid vaccination.
Furthermore, Deadline states that Emilio refused to assure he would comply with the mandate, which complicated his return to the franchise.
Instead, Disney opted to move ahead in a new direction, making changes to the scripts.
The last-minute decision means production will not get underway until next year, meaning fans likely have a lengthy hiatus in store.
Like many film and TV projects, The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers has added a mandatory vaccination policy, which has been a part of an agreement between studios and unions.

Exclusive: The Mighty Ducks franchise will continue without Gordon Bombay. Emilio Estevez, who reprised his role from the 1992 movie and its 1994 and 1996 sequels in Season 1 of The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers, will not be back for the Disney+ series’ upcoming second season, I have learned.
I hear Disney Television Studios’ ABC Signature, which produces the hockey-themed sequel series, made the decision not to pick up Estevez’s option for Season 2 after weeks of back and forth with his team over the show’s Covid vaccination requirement. Reps for the studio and Estevez declined comment.
