House Of Cards season 6 thread?

Is there a thread on this already?

If not; we're on episode 3 and I'm...bemused...IMO it's not hanging together well.
Anyone else watching it?

I have just started it, I didn’t realise it was on.

We've seen episodes 1-3. There's a lot going on but it doesn't seem to be cohesive yet.

Watching episode 2 now - struggling to figure it all out. Can't remember so much & have watched 6 seasons of scandal since.

We stopped in the middle of episode 2 and rewatched the series catch up. It helped a bit but it still wasn't entirely making sense.

We're going to watch episode 4 and possibly 5 & 6 later.
At the end of episode 3 it is beginning to make more sense but so far it's not as good as previous series.
I'm sad about that because I loved Robin Wright's character evil as she is in previous series and I wanted her to smash it now she's president but so far...nope.
I think it's a script problem, rather than the casting or acting.

I didn’t realise it was back on. I need to add this to my watch list. I think this season will be very different because Kevin Soacey is no longer in it, although I do adore Robin Wright

What happened to Kevin Stacey was he ever charged?

PurpleNailVarnish · 03/11/2018 15:27

charges dropped

I'm not sure whether that link re the charges against Kevin Spacey refers to all of the allegations against him.

That was the one that really saddened me I always rated him.

Muddlingalongalone · 03/11/2018 16:48

It's getting better, some proper old school hoc moments but it feels like it's going at the speed of a 16/20 parter so I feel like it could be rushed in the next 3 episodes.

PurpleNailVarnish · 03/11/2018 23:08

We've finished the series now.

I don't think I can say anything much without dropping major spoilers but the pace does pick up towards the end of the series.

I was pleasantly surprised having read poor reviews. Just watched episodes 1-3 and really enjoyed it. I'm mesmerised by Robin Wright's amazing figure and outfits. Plus her ability to walk so elegantly in such high heels.

I started a (spoilers) thread on this last night in the Streaming section.

Thought it was DREADFUL

My thread title is what a load of old shit.

Don't know if I can copy my comment across due to spoilers

PurpleNailVarnish · 06/11/2018 20:57

I'll have a look @PawneeParksDept.
Thank you Smile

Just finished watching and I so wanted it to end on a high, but sadly...

I also loved RW's outfits and ability to walk in towering heels

tinstar · 13/11/2018 18:59

I take it all back. Enjoyed the first few episodes but then it went downhill, descending into the bizarre and absurd Confused

You're welcome to have a rant on the spoiler LOAD OF OLD SHIT thread in Streaming @tinstar
