"Living+" is the sixth episode of the fourth season of the American satirical comedy-drama television series Succession, and the 35th episode overall. It was written by Georgia Pritchett and Will Arbery and directed by Lorene Scafaria, and originally aired on HBO on April 30, 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), who has passed away by this point of the series. The episode sees the Roys preparing the launch of "Living+", Logan's unrealized initiative on Waystar's Investor Day, as the ambition of Kendall (Jeremy Strong) and the unresolved grief of Roman (Kieran Culkin) threaten to destabilize the company. The episode notably features Cox's first appearance since Logan's death three episodes prior in "Connor's Wedding", as Logan appears via videos he had recorded for the launch.

“Living+" received critical acclaim, with praise for the performances (especially from Strong, Sarah Snook and Matthew Macfadyen), direction, and satirical elements. The episode earned Primetime Emmy Award nominations for Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series for Scafaria (losing to "Connor's Wedding"), and Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for J. Smith-Cameron's performance as Gerri Kellman; it also won the Writers Guild of America Award for Television: Episodic Drama.
