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.

    • I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball 
    • 100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.
    • I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
