when you know the guy playing the main role is just an old queen who likes fricking teenage boys even if legally as decreed by the courts, its a major ick and its hard to look past.
It failed to live up to its title.
The "house of cards" never came crashing down, Claire won and her and Frank's crimes were never exposed.
It was also already bad and felt directionless in season 5 when Spacey was still there. It didn't feel like it was building to any grand, well-planned finale with him that we missed out on
Lost the plot by season 3. It's funny how, plot-wise, Veep could play keep- away with the protagonist's white house objectives for seven seasons while this succumbed by the end of season 2.
The finale was just Frank doing the same shit Doug did. Claire snuffs Frank, "No more pain." Ho hum.
>house of cards thst never fell >wrote out the main character for his one dimensional wife
We all wanted the definitely-not-clintons to lose and it didn’t happen
I don't know if all the bizarre violent and constant gay sex was worth seeing anna paquin's breasts all the time but I feel like it might have been. Unwatchable slop otherwise though
>secretly gay >violent sexual urges >three of four accusers die over the course of one year (suicide, car accident, undetermined) >always stars in movies with manipulating sociopath characters
Once this came to light, the fiction of this series became a bit too close to reality. I wonder how much influence he had on the writing.
It just got too ugly and ridiculous, as well as repetitive.
You run out of things to think or talk about approximately 2 seasons in. It turns into >Underwoods and associates do heinous things >some kind of rival emerges >they beat the rival >low-impact drama with side characters tragically dying
>unlnowing rival is his own party leadership >rival is billionaire >rival is Russian president >rival is presidential candidate >rival is wife
All of these seemed pretty organic and different from each other.
I found the Claire season much better than expected. Mostly because she was written into Spacey's role and stopped serving as the horrifically annoying b***h character who kept ruining the show with her irrelevant woman drama.
They fricked up seasons 3 and 4 with her bullshit and season 5 illuminated how unnecessary it was.
why she monke

Those teenage boys were asking for it. Every young gay wants to get fricked by the movie star and then they regret it and boo hop cry rape.
the legality is irrelevant, its still a big ick
>major ick
Shut the frick up troony
this guy likes the idea of geriatric men sucking teenage wiener, keep an eye out for him, hes a bit of an odd one.
>be 20 something gay actor
>be at coked up Hollywood gay party
>hit on teenage gay actor at gay party
>get cancelled for it 30 years later.
I like how he said he doesn’t remember raping a young boy, but was like, sounds like something I could have done, and if I did, I’m sorry.
He was never even accused of rape
It's called statutory
>put his hand on another man's knee while in a bar
>man doesn't tell him to frick off
>man doesn't punch him
>man tells his mother.
why cant normies leave the personal lives of actors out of the equation?
What I do outside of work is not the business of my employers or my customers.
It completely destroyed itself by continuing on without Spacey. No one wants to remember it, which is a shame because S1-2 were watchable

Turns out Kevin's a little bit rapey.
Here's another one that no one remembers.
Ouch, fail. Absolutely everyone remembers that one.
I don't know if all the bizarre violent and constant gay sex was worth seeing anna paquin's breasts all the time but I feel like it might have been. Unwatchable slop otherwise though
It turned out to be weirdly auto-biographic
I've watched it a bunch of times, besides that last season.
I only watched it in the last year. First two seasons were best. Was kinda cringe after that
>Please wait a while before making a post
my opinion is that is was always shlock of the highest order like the west wing
Because the superior version exists.
What show is this?
I offer another superior version.
Correct. Bloody Americans, and their long-winded knock-offs.
Elon Musk had him on for Christmas to discuss their mutual Epstein parties in character
I love that Tucker Carlson added to the Kevin Spacey Christmas video collection
>secretly gay
>violent sexual urges
>three of four accusers die over the course of one year (suicide, car accident, undetermined)
>always stars in movies with manipulating sociopath characters

Whatever you think, he's a great actor and even when the show got bad he still made it worth watching.
I thought he was a great actor too until it came out that he is just playing himself
He's played many different characters
Which ones were the award winning ones? The ones where he played himself.
American beauty and the usual suspects both got him academy awards and couldn't be more different.
>American Beauty
42-year-old man who is emotionally numb, who is sexually obsessed with a 16-year-old
>Usual Suspect
Secretly a crime lord who plays the justice system like a fiddle and gets away with his many crimes by pretending to be harmless.
Yes, very different characters
Two cheeks of the same arse
You got btfo and you're just to egotistical to admit it
No, I think you're a bit moronic though. It's like I'm talking to a child or mentally disabled person, having to explain the most obvious conclusions.
Because it became shit
It just got too ugly and ridiculous, as well as repetitive.

Good for you if you found it convincing and entertaining, I didn't.
Because the Claire season was a disaster.
Even when the show was past its prime after season 2, Spacey always made it enjoyable to watch.

The claire season went full moron feminism. Frank could be a ruthless c**t but he was still charming and charismatic.
there was a brit series house of cards in 1990 anyone watch that?
the bald fella was really good in this one. did he win any awards?
He got a golden globe
Remember when he threatened the crown?
Because he grabbed someone's balls and was exonerated
Season 1 and 2 are pretty good. Season 3 already felt directionless and boring with the not-Putin drama.
Every Christmas he reminds us its not over.
first two seasons were great, honestly don't remember much after that
I heard that much like all American remakes, it is bloated filler and the British version is better
the fact Cinemaphile never talks about this series is insane.
