In the Season 3 finale, Tom made a stunning move that had major repercussions for Logan Roy's children, including Shiv. Macfayden, who has displayed an incredible skill at turning his British accent into an American one, was nominated for a Primetime Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series last year.
'Matthew Macfayden wasn't even nominated?'
SO happy about kieran culkin though

Although NBC will not air the Golden Globes, the HFPA still plans to hold a ceremony on Jan. 9, even if no broadcast partner is found. NBC announced in May it would not air the awards show to support a boycott of the HFPA, which has been criticized for years because of the lack of diversity among its members. It is still not clear if the studios and nominees will continue the boycott by avoiding references to the Globes in awards campaigns.
'Robbed?'
Matthew Macfadyen robbed??#Succession #GoldenGlobes
