Succession season 4 premiere date: An extended episode 1?
We also, by some measure, like to imagine that the network could do at least something to reward us for so long of a wait. With that, let’s go ahead and pose the following: Is there any chance at all that we get an extended premiere whenever the show comes back? Is that remotely realistic?

We do think an extended episode 1 for season 4 is something that both HBO and creator Jesse Armstrong will consider; however, how they go about it remains to be seen. There are a lot of major factors that play into this, and the most likely #1 component to it will be simply the story. We have a hard time thinking that, under any circumstance, the season 4 premiere is going to be longer solely for the sake of it. Instead, the more likely scenario here is that we’re going to have a chance to see the first episode be however long it needs to be.
More than likely, we will see the first episode run for an hour and a five minutes / something in that vein. When the dust settles, we have a hard time really envisioning things going that much longer than that. Succession is not a cable drama that is going to be stretched out solely for the sake of it. We think there is a specific plan here and the network will stick with it, even if a lot of us are out clamoring / craving more.
