House of Cards, Season 3 (Spoilers)

OK, since you clicked I'm assuming you've seen all of season 3.  If not, don't read on...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What a brilliant show.  Top 5 all-time imo.

 

I need to re-watch the whole season to pick out some details but...

 

Obviously the main thrust of this season was Frank and Claire's relationship.  We'd seen some cracks build in previous seasons, but neither of them seem to mind the other fuging around (no real shock there) as long as it furthered their defined goals.

 

Claire seemed to lose sight of that tho and started wanting more for herself, and of course Frank, being the controlling, ruthless asshole he is, gives her as much as he can, but keeps as much real power for himself as he can.

 

Both Spacey and Wright deserve awards for their acting, Spacey in particular.

 

 

Doug:  I knew he wasn't going to let Rachel live... he seemed to be really considering it, but in the end I knew he had to do it and would.

 

Dunbar:  She started with noble intentions and is falling down the path of power, pretty funny to see her make the play with the journal and have Frank call her on it.  Then when Frank got the phone from Doug and told her to fug off, god that was great.

 

 

Interesting that they just cut Mendoza out so abrubtly... I guess they had to given the Dunbar storyline.

 

I found Petrov's character to be interesting in that he's just like Frank and I think Frank hated that.  Petrov seemed to best Frank at every turn... I suspect we'll see Frank turn the tables on him next season somehow.

 

 

Two characters that are really creepy to me are Meechum and Tom (the author) both of them are really weird to me.

 

 

One thing I love about the show as a middle aged guy is all the hot 40 something women they have on the show.  That's a real plus.

 

Discuss.

    • KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.
    • Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.  
    • Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
