Because I just finished watching it. The ending was total crap.

It's honestly pretty bad. It's just poorly written, and I cringed hard at the shitty dialogue in that funeral scene, also Frank's opening speech in congress was so fucking awful, who the fuck is writing this shitty dialogue? It sounds like something an edgy teenager would write.

Acting was awful too, especially by the teen girl of the beheaded guy, the quality of this show has declined so hard.

Also, ICO, who the fuck in their writers room came up with this garbage fucking acronym? Islamic Caliphate Organization, fucking seriously? This is by far one of the dumbest things ever uttered on television. How hard is it to come up with a proper name for a fake Islamic terrorist group?

Spoil the ending, there are better things to watch.

This show was ruined as soon as Robin Wright became executive producer and started pushing the strong independent womyn meme.

I can't get into this show, because politics bores me.I also find Kevin Spacey to be a dull actor.

>>83381326
Because it started as an entertaining romp for the first two seasons that maintained a somewhat meta apolitical stance and was just a drama about corruption more or less. Then they got new blood who turned it into a soapbox to push identity politics and 'dude so obvious solutions if only we did this' bullshit. Slid into shit. Irredeemable.

>>
>>83385451
Frank was always a singular mind with power, what does he do when he becomes President? He wants more. It's the classic "lust for power until it destroys you" that is a typical Greek archetype for a character in a tragedy. His personality didn't change when he became President, what changed was the tools with which he could get away with more shit. Are you not even paying attention? Every season, more shit piles on and on in the background, like a dam ready to burst and he strolls around like an oblivious cunt pretending that he can talk or connive his way out of anything.

It literally needs to get more ridiculous for the whole circus to come crashing down finally.

Netflix's data driven model means they know how female feet boost interest in any IP. HoC was the IP where this became most apparent and we've used that in our scene design.

Spoilers obviously (not like it matters for this series)
>Black caucus is turning against the president at a stalemate in the House presidential succession procedures
>Conway's advisor tells him this
>"I guess we will give him a call" Conway responds in an unenthusiastic way
This seems like the proper response after months of trying to gain the presidency and having definite mandate for the position.

The entire series is Francis Underwood's contention with a series of cardboard cutouts he triumphantly pushes over when appropriate. He should have lost his upswing in power with the uneasy resolution of the teachers' union problems during season 1, but they used a dumb plot device to explain it all away.

The UK version of House of Cards is much more realistic in the buildup of Francis's personal power. He is always in the upswing by his own design in the first season while remaining "politically inactive" regarding the public spotlight, and during the second season he finally gets to use his built up power.

Well...you are right. They didn't. Humans have never really been terribly monogamous, unless your history class only goes back to the Victorian era and that's it. This "only stable monogamous relationships work" is a meme, kiddo. A meme that came out of American conservatism after WWII especially, influenced by the Victorian-era beliefs that carried over from Europe in the early throes of the 19th century.

this is incorrect if you consider other animal species in comparison to humans and the progression of the human genus.

monogamy seems to have arisen at the time when high sexual dimorphism in Homo genus predecessors started appearing (Homo erectus first had this level by most interpretations of human fossil remains). this was maintained until the rise of civilization where monogamy was the definite standard regarding sexual activity in advancing civilizations (the societal structure and religious beliefs of early societies point towards this heavily).

Monogamy is present in history unless you are trying to use the weaselly contrived sociological argument that relies on the lack of record keeping of regular couples which happily ends with the Victorian era (provide proof of stable marriage, well it didn't happen if you can't!).

In most ancient societies with a good historical record, monogamy was practiced by the average person and was practiced in form by the rulers (concubines and other forms of polygyny existed).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monogamy#Ancient_societies

Monogamous structures like arranged marriage and other pairing based on socio-economic status are easily evidenced throughout history.

I don't think you know what that is.
>Monogamy is present in history unless you are trying to use the weaselly contrived sociological argument that relies on the lack of record keeping of regular couples which happily ends with the Victorian era
First off, you are arguing that a lack of supporting evidence for historical records of monogamy, somehow supports that..these societies were heavily monogamous? Am I being fucking baited here? That's beyond retarded. Secondly, what do you mean it "ends" with the Victorian era? You can prove through a historical context of the last few hundred years, that monogamy saw a popularity spike that correlates to a myriad of religious and societal views that benefits monogamy.
>(provide proof of stable marriage, well it didn't happen if you can't!).
I don't have a clue what you are trying to say here.
>In most ancient societies with a good historical record, monogamy was practiced by the average person
Which is also true of non-monogamy...
>and was practiced in form by the rulers (concubines and other forms of polygyny existed).
Which nobody is denying.
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monogamy#Ancient_societies
Again, nobody here is denying that monogamy as a concept, exists in human society.
>Monogamous structures like arranged marriage and other pairing based on socio-economic status are easily evidenced throughout history.
Nobody is disagreeing with this either. The disagreement is your proto-Christian-conservative nonsense that "only monogamy produces stable relationships". That was your ridiculous claim you moved the goalpost from, since you probably figured early on that a three minute google search makes you look foolish. To assert that monogamy is some sort of bedrock of human society (when it clearly isn't) makes you look absolutely brainwashed.

Go complain on /lit/ with other moralfags about how "wahhh wahhh, non-monogamy is le bad because my Sunday school pastor said so".

lol yes, examples of societies that practiced unconventional non-monogamous sex, is totally not an argument. I also think you just learned about all these fallacies and think it makes you look smart to apply them everywhere.
>There were anti-polygamy laws in Ancient Greece before Christianity was introduced.
Ah right, it doesn't matter anymore once they (wink wink) pass anti-polygamy laws. That means, nobody else, ever...practices it.

I suppose a few thousand years of Eastern and Middle Eastern non-monogamy just doesn't cut it for this anon. I can't mention them either, or else it's a FALLUCIEEEEE

no, I'm countering to the marriage records argument which you implied by bringing up Victorian ideals being the start of monogamy

>The disagreement is your proto-Christian-conservative nonsense that "only monogamy produces stable relationships".
I never stated this and I don't believe that this always has to be true, so my "moving of the goalposts" was only a false interpretation of my words on your part.
> To assert that monogamy is some sort of bedrock of human society
I am only arguing that monogamy was the norm for the average person in pre-modern socieities in social pairing and often in genetic pairing. I'm not denying the existence of polygyny's practice, but this is genetic pairing and would not be recognized as outside of the monogamous structure of many early societies (the story of Abraham and Sarah points towards this type).

To clarify, my original statement was "monogamy seems to have arisen at the time when high sexual dimorphism in Homo genus predecessors started appearing". It seems like you interpreted my statement that any form of monogamy first started with human genus predecessors as societal and genetic monogamy starting with human predecessors which obviously has no basis in the fossil record.

Countering fallacies with their identification as fallacies is always called anti-intellectual by those who frequently attempt to utilize them.

Literally the opposite. The more sexually dimorphic a species is, the less monogamous it's likely to be. Humans are odd in that our sexual dimorphism is fairly slight compared to other mammals and even other apes, such as gorillas or orangutans. We're naturally speaking a slightly polygynous species.

It was never good because Frank Underwood does unbelievably stupid shit that should have horrible repercussions because he has "power". Faggot never shuts up about power and all he does is be a complete asshole to everyone yet still somehow manages to get people to trust him and work with him over and over. The shows definition of Machiavellian is "everyone is a retard and you're a huge obvious schemer"

This show was never good, the BBC one was great though. This is like how Chef Ramsey goes apeshit for American audiences and is pretty calm for European ones.

Wait I thought it was S3 that was the shit one. 4 is worse than 3?

So after all that S4 is still worse? And this season just glosses over the fact her nepotism caused issues and continued lack of experience, yet still gets presidency? What the fuck is going on?

Orgies in roman/greek times were common as fuck for the upper classes. Extreme levels of whoring have happened all throughout documented history. Multiple pacific island nations didn't practice monogamy and you'd have difficultly assigning specific male parent, so the community itself were the guardians/parents.

Hell you've got easy examples of upper class/royals having multiple wives, mistresses etc. And that's during christian times. You can't assume every single individual was perfectly puritan if their overlords were not.

Her skills and experience were not up to par for what she's meant to be doing. Like Trump she should have that position and those in senate/house should have HER on the leash. But after the Frank shit, she should be tainted to fuck and no one should trust or deal with her.

The series played too fast and loose with the realism, it's become a joke.

>Tfw S6 will have Claire redeem herself and become good now thats she's free from Frank's influence: frank will then hang himself in prison, and Claire becomes the president we always needed, she just had to act evil because 'woman in a mans world'

Have you watched the vastly superior british series? It's far better and shorter but more importantly this show has deviated from that show by a ridiculous degree. The very fact that his wife got involved in politics is already a nod to the Clintons, whereas the original F. Urquhart doesn't become the incompetent bumbling idiot Underwood does, I won't spoil the show but it's much better.

Regardless these characters act a lot more like Trump and Hillary than the original series, so denying the real world election had anything to do with it, when producers in interviews even acknowledge it did, is beyond moronic.

Realistically no one would elect a fucking First Lady via Senate vote. You would get an uprising on how nepotistic that is. Even millennial Americans aren't that stupid. I haven't watched S5 yet, but I'm betting it'll take a giant shit on the US government system.

So what happened exactly? End of season 4 hE declared war and now none of that's happening. Fuck sake I knew it was gonna be anti climatic bullshit. Every season they pull this on us

At least Frank is the underdog again. Him cheating his way to the top in the first 2 seasons was what made them so great.

would you describe the Underwoods as a stable family? It's part of their destructiveness. Cuckoldry is what causes them crises.

This. The show declined massively once Frank became President. He should have been Whip for at least 2 seasons really.

>how nepotistic that is

Have you paid any attention to the news recently? Things are eroding fast.

Just finished watching S5, I've just wasted 13 hours of my life.
