I was a bit down on this series around season 2 because I felt it took a dip in "quality" from a prestige drama standpoint. Ridiculous writing and characters. But once I got over that and embraced it as a trashy political power fantasy I learned to roll with the absurdity and have enjoyed it much more ever since.

I agree with what a previous poster said though. Because I've accepted this as trash fun, then I want the most entertaining parts of the show to be at the forefront, and that's Clair and Frank working together as a team. I'm not here for her to undermine him or him to undermine her, or for either one of them to grow a conscious. I don't want the House of Cards to come crumbling like Walt in Breaking Bad, or for Frank to get his comeuppance. I don't need them to make some statement about absolute power and have an ending that punishes evil. Nah, double down on the fukkery. Let them two motherfukkers be evil together and entertain me by fukking up America:blessed:

One nation, Underwood:salute:

" One Nation Under Wood" sounds like a Trump porn parody :dame::mjlol:

I see Doug is back on his stalking women and taking up airtime steez :francis::hhh::scust: possibly the WOAT fukking storyline :stopitslime:

Anyone know if the god Remy Danton will be back (even though his plot may be over :lupe:)? Hope they don't skip the Underwoods trying to kick off a war from the end of last season...

I think the war is their plan to keep themselves in the white house back to back to back to back now

If Remy ever does come back it wont be til season 6. It's already been confirmed he's not in season 5 because of Luke Cage.

Doubt the show feels the same when the fictional knee deep in fukkery president seems much tamer than our actual HCIC(head cac in charge).

Weak ass Obama made it feel like Frank was on some otherworldy shyt. Trump makes this downlow Prez seem like a sissy.
