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.

    • his height, size and arm will forever cause problems and limitations...that is what it is.  I think to a degree, the law of averages is just coming into play a bit with him.  So as he plays more and more, you just flat out get the decent days mixed in too.  Which is just going to happen. 
    • Good point. He's definitely better in 10-15 yards. I think that's his biggest improvement. But he wasn't 3-10 +15, he was 3-7, with at least one drop (minor but still). And with multiple passes at 14 yards completed. This passing chart doesn't look like at By one, lol. He threw more "deep" passes than Mahomes (NOT comparing him to Mahomes in a skill way lol), or at least more beyind 10 yards.
    • Karlaftis and Danna have been pretty inconsistent so teams have been doubling Jones and able to contain their pass rush.   But the good thing is that yesterday, we schemed well against Steve Spags Defense, Canales married the surrounding personnel with his QB through play designs within his comfort zone and was able to get downfield at will.  He was able to execute higher difficulty throws and look a lot more comfortable.  It tells me that Canales has a good system in mind, and had an edge gameplanning wise against Spagnuolo - which is nice to see.  It's a bit to see-saw at times with either going way too pass heavy or way too run heavy, but I think he's finding out what works.  It takes time to have it come together, and sure, I could see regression happen against a better front-7, but this was good for the entire system gelling.
