This article will help you watch one of the profusely adulated shows ‘Succession’, most specifically the 3rd season of the show on your Amazon Firestick device. This guide will be applicable to all the Firestick devices regardless of their model to watch succession on firestick device
With an IMDB rating of 8.8 and an Emmy award to its name, Succession’s success is nothing but remarkable and why wouldn’t it be, the show is prolific in every facet, you name it. With Jesse Armstrong its creator, the show has 3 seasons under its belt. While the first 2 seasons of the show are plentifully available on different platforms, it is the 3rd season that seems to be elusive as the show was specifically produced to be featured on HBO max, marking its exclusivity to a single platform.
How to watch Succession online
Succession is available to watch on HBO max, Disney+, and can be rented episode or season-wise on Amazon Prime. Now, in many countries, HBO max is not available, so that poses a big issue for those wanting to watch the show.
This leaves us with the second option that is watching it via Amazon Prime. However, the issue here is twofold, firstly Succession is unavailable outside the US to watch on Amazon prime, and secondly, you will have to rent the episode ($3.99) or an entire season 3 ($28.99) which is costlier than HBO max’s subscription that stands at 9.99 per month (with ads included) $14.99 per month (without adds).
It doesn’t matter whether you are a prime member or not. The show exists available to buy independent of your Prime subscription. The third option is to watch it on Disney+ but again geo-restriction renders this option as impotent as the others.
Setting up a VPN to watch Succession from anywhere
This problem can only be resolved by a VPN or Virtual Private Network that would allow you to stream HBO max in any country regardless of its availability and not to mention the desideratum anonymity it will provide to you while you are streaming.
Now, there are a lot of VPNs out there promising different features and functions. You can read more about them on the internet
You can choose any VPN based on its features and pricing and dive into the next step. Remember that most VPN companies offer a free 30 days trial, so you can always keep exploring your options.
