Of the four Roy siblings, which one was Logan's favorite? The two obvious choices are Kendall (Jeremy Strong) and Shiv (Sarah Snook). For Kendall, the argument is clear: He was the one trained from a young age to take over the company, whose name Logan (allegedly) underlined in his will. If it weren't for Kendall's addiction issues and his constant rebellions against his father, he'd be the obvious pick to take over the company. Sure, Logan did say in the season 2 finale that he was disappointed Kendall was "not a killer," but Logan's seemingly proud reaction to Kendall's later betrayal implies he always thought Kendall had the potential to be one.
But a strong case can also be made for Shiv. Logan gives her the most affectionate nickname (Pinky) of all his kids, and it's been established through scattered bits of dialogue that she's the only kid Logan never physically abused.

This post contains spoilers for "Succession" season 4, episode 9, "Church and State."
Few things are harder to write than a eulogy. How do you even begin to sum up a person's life? How much do you share without making a speech about yourself instead of the deceased? On the latest episode of "Succession," the Roy siblings confronted these questions when they attended the funeral of their father Logan (Brian Cox).
Connor (Alan Ruck), who oversaw the funeral, has been pressing his siblings on who would be the speaker. In the end, all three of them were, plus their grumpy uncle: Logan's brother, Ewan (James Cromwell). Connor also wrote something himself, but he was ultimately barred from delivering it. We didn't get a glimpse at what he wrote, but apparently, his speech was too long and "legally actionable." Being the only sibling who doesn't say anything at Logan's funeral is a fitting...
