I just watched this and I wish I could go back in time to convince myself not to watch it. The final season might be the worse season of any show I've personally watched. The HoC shittiness ranks down there with GoT and Dexter. At least during GoT's shitshow of a final season, I held out hope they could recover with a decent ending. The HoC last season was a constant spiral downward with no action, no decent storylines, and I did not care for any character except for Doug. I guess with GoT I at least still like some of the characters despite their arcs being meaningless.

The show lost its main character...what did you expect? It is the only reason I didn't watch the last season. There was no way Claire was going to be able to carry that show.

I thought the final season was slightly better than the one before it.

It’s still bad though.

Even the last season with Spacey was awful.
There was no way to salvage the show once he was axed.
It's a shame though, because it was one of the first Netflix hits.


Bloodline is still the one that pisses me off the most.
The tax credits in Florida all but killed that show.

I didn’t watch. I hated the penultimate season so much I told myself I’d only watch the last season if word of mouth was strong and (maybe or) if Claire (maybe the most overrated character in television history) died. But it wasn’t to be, and I’ll never watch the end. I now recommend to my friends to stop watching after season 2.

You mind spoiling that one for me?
First season was really good, second season was bad. I gave up like 2 episodes into season 3... what eventually happens?

I remember I started watching it after the second season had come out and I have never been that blown away or hooked on a tv show quite like that. For all of Spacey's bullshite, the dude was a great actor.

“Help, Help the secretary has fallen!” That’s when I knew this show was done.

It was a terrible show long before they got rid of Spacey.

The first two seasons with Frank's scheming to become president were great, but once he was finally president it all went downhill.

That first season was so perfectly shot and paced, it was such a joy to watch. I can rewatch those first two seasons over and over

Lost interest after S2 or S3 when the Beau Willimon left. It went to shite shortly after.

This is the biggest issue with the series overall. His mischievous climb to the top was what made the series great. When he became president it was just a show about a guy who was frustrated because of all the challenges a president faces in his every day job.

The end of season 2 is where the show should have ended.

It was all downhill once there were no more Marvelous Mrs Maisel boobs.

Yeah, it lost me at the subway station. I watched a few more and then bailed.

Brosnahan is in a new cold war spy movie based on a true story. The movie is Ironbark, I think it premiers soon, maybe at Sundance.
