I said at the time, how can they improve on the second season finale? He attained his goal. They should have left well enough alone.
I watched 5 episodes today and so far it’s quite good.
I have only seen 4 episodes of Season 1. Does Season 2 end the same as the BBC series? If so, then there won’t be much suspense for me.
I was looking forward to watching season three until a friend said it is now all about left wing causes.
Finished watching ep 1 and 2 of season 3.
Don’t recall seeing any shark yet.

Is it coming to Comcast?
Too bad the show was written before wal mart decided to bump the wages of all their low level “associates “.
I thought this season was awful and dissatisfying. It’s also fallen deeper into absurdity.
I’ve only watched the first scene of the new season, but like the first scene of the series, it’s brilliant.......defines his character....
Barry comes across as quite the tyrant this season
Watched the first four episodes of the new season. Disgraceful scene at the end of episode four.
When art condones illicit behavior, it ceases to be art
Black Sails sunk their own ship last weekend
I’ve never heard of it. Is it a network tv series?
You guys that watched the whole thing already, where do you find the time? I will take me about a month to watch a 13-episode season. 3-4 shows a week is about all I can handle from any show.
I binged watched all 13 episodes on Friday.
Loved the first two seasons. Season Three left me feeling sad and empty.
You are right. Totally jumped the shark. Dang shame. I hope season four is better. (If there is a season four).
I have seen the BBC series a couple of times and it is first rate. Ian Richardson, in my opinion, may be the better actor in this.
I am now watching the second season where I left off some time back. Will decide whether to watch Season Three later.
I saw the UK version of House of Cards when it was on Masterpeice Theater on PBS. Its based on a book and the author did have Francis pay for his crimes but the BBC decided to have him escape punishment in their version.
House Of Cards by Michael Dobbs.
The first book on kindle is on kindle unlimited/
Think I will read the books!
In the original BBC series, Frank talks to the camera often and we get to hear his thoughts. We see his ruthless rise to the top and then he’s killed off by his wife. This version is good but it’s turned into a soap opera.
At least not until Season 4.
