"Connor's Wedding" is the third episode of the fourth season of the American satirical comedy-drama television series Succession, and the 32nd episode overall. It was written by series creator Jesse Armstrong, directed by Mark Mylod, and originally aired on HBO on April 9, 2023. Succession centers on the Roy family, the owners of global media and entertainment conglomerate Waystar RoyCo, and their fight for control of the company amidst uncertainty about the health of the family's patriarch Logan (Brian Cox). The episode takes place during the wedding of Logan's eldest child Connor (Alan Ruck) as things take a turn after Logan collapses while aboard a private jet. The episode does not depict Logan's illness or collapse, and is mostly told through the perspective of Logan's four children at the wedding as they gradually come to terms with the fact that their father is likely dead. "Connor's Wedding" received unanimous critical acclaim, with many calling it the best episode of the series, as well as one of the greatest television episodes of all time, with praise going to the writing, direction, and performances. In particular, the decision to kill off Logan early in the season, as well as depict his demise mostly off-screen to focus on the other characters' reactions to it, was applauded. Out of the twenty-seven Primetime Emmy Award nominations received by Succession for its fourth and final season, five were specifically for the episode, which won Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series for Armstrong (giving him one win for each season) and Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series for Mylod.
