I didn't see a thread for this show yet, so I thought I'd start one. My apologies if there is one and I missed it!

From IMBD.com:

Majority House Whip Francis Underwood takes you on a long journey as he exacts his vengeance on those he feels wronged him - that is, his own cabinet members including the President of the United States himself. Dashing, cunning, methodical and vicious, Frank Underwood along with his equally manipulative yet ambiguous wife, Claire take Washington by storm through climbing the hierarchical ladder to power in this Americanized recreation of the BBC series of the same name.

My wife and I binge watched the first two seasons on Netflix a few weeks ago. Man, what a show! Kevin Spacey is perfect in his role as Frank Underwood. Ruthless, vengeful, and cunning, he is willing to do anything to get what he wants, and take down those who wronged him.

Any fans?

Between 1992 and 1999, Kevin Spacey was on a roll. He was in 5 bonafide classics and 4 other good movies.

Since American Beauty he hasn't had one good role.

Like De Niro, Pacino, Keitel and Norton he has barely been in anything of note since the turn of the millennium.

Pity; but good to see him make a splash in a new medium.


I invoke my right under the 5th amendment of the United States constitution and decline to answer the question.

This is one of my favorite episodic series. Spacey was brilliant.I did the same XDCX. I think watching these series, House of Cards, Breaking Bad and Dexter are best if you watch them all in a row.

Kevin should have won the Emmy this year. He is great on that show.

I just don't know where the show can go after the end of season 2.

Incidently, I bought cuff links with the letter F and the letter U on it from watching that show.

But I did not like that he shared his hot wife with his security guy. 2 guys and a girl is too gay for my taste. Better if it was two girls and him.

I hope you notice that Underwood is a democrate not a republican.

Very good show. Looking forward to season 3.
