Backstayges and Roys

I finally realized what the group trips of Succession remind me of: the group trips of Mary Backstayge, Noble Wife, the Bob and Ray radio-serial spoof. In last night’s episode of Succession the whole gang traveled to Norway: Kendall, Roman, Shiv, Tom, Frank, Greg, &c. In Mary Backstayge, it’s Mary and Harry Backstayge, Calvin Hoogavin, Pop Beloved, and Greg Marlowe, traveling from one adventure to another.
