re: House of Cards: Full Season Discussion (WITH SPOILERS)

Can't believe I have to wait a year for another 13 episodes. I want it now dammit.

Mixed feelings about this season, I thought the dynamic with the author was interesting and the interactions with the Russian president were always very tense. Stamper has always been my least favorite character but he grew on me a little bit this season. Seeing him in a more human light was cool, but I think they focused on him way too much. Probably as a means to fill time. On the other hand the finale was pretty bleh, especially compared to last season. It certainly didn't feel like they had really accomplished anything. Also, Claire is just the worst. She is about as fugazi as they come. Had to be a couple pints low on blood to even say anything honest and I swear, right before she passed out, her accent changed. I got so tired of seeing that tight-lipped, never-blinking, resting bitch face of hers in every scene she was in. Not to mention the hotel room scene, wtf?

What the hell happened to Mendoza? The majority leader is just gone all the sudden and all we get is some fricking aside from Frank about unreported income? That was bullshite, Netflix.

All of that bitching and I'm still hooked like a crackhead on it. Such a good show.
