Just today, I've read two interviews with different HoC actors about Kevin Spacey. In one, Robin Wright claims to have had NO idea about Spacey's behavior. In the other, Joel Kinnaman said he'd heard from 5 or 6 friends about Spacey's behavior. I wondered if RW really didn't see anything or just chose not to see anything, if that makes sense.
The Kinnaman interview isn't new - it's from January - it's just new to me.
I actually don't mind that Spacey won't be in the final season and I don't think I would have cared even if the scandal hadn't happened. IMO, Claire is the most interesting character on the show. SHE'S the one with the most growth and change in the series and the one I enjoy watching the most. Frank Underwood was a great character and I thought KS was brilliant in the role. That being said, Frank didn't change one iota from the first day to the last day. I enjoyed watching him, because he was so evil AND sort of lovable at the same time. BUT, if I had to choose which Underwood to watch, it would be Claire. Frank had sort of fizzled out in the last season, as Claire made her ascendancy. It was fun to see Claire get one over on the person who thought he could manipulate anyone to his will.
I'm curious to see how they'll handle Frank's absence. Fatal heart attack? Federal prison sentence? Faking his own death and going on the lam?

OMG, is anyone else watching!? Holy crap! I just finished episode five and if I could have actually high-fived anyone (cats arent really great at high-fives) I totally would have! Now I'm even more bummed that we only get 8 episodes in this final season. I want more! Robin Wright is KILLING IT! (totally miss the:bowdown smiley right now!)

Ohhh I love your review Critical ........no I have not started it yet. Seeing you have seen them all 8 episodes and we have been told this was the FINAL season, if its as good as you are stating........is it POSSIBLE at all, that TPTB may rethink HOC being DONE??

This is definitely the final season. They also scrapped the Doug Stamper spinoff.
I binged the whole season in one sitting. It was good. Robin Wright/Claire is such a bad ass! 8 episodes was just right. It's ironic the whole season was about Kevin Spacey's character. I enjoyed these episodes but Kevin Spacey was missed. I liked Claire talking to the camera and she carried the show nicely but the intensity that Frank Underwood brings and that knock on wood...nothing will ever be like it.

OMG........Hubby and I finished HOC.........I DID NOT WANT IT TO END..........noooooo.........!!!!!!! It was so good!!! I needed at the least 3 more episodes!!! I wanted to see Claire have her baby (possibly in JAIL) and what did she name her. What happened to the Shepherd's and Duncan. I wanted to know what happened to the VP and Skorsky, the reporter? Yes, F.U. was in the entire Season. I found allot of the Season was shadowing our political climate NOW. (I am not sure that sentence made sense but you all know what I mean).
I loved the Claire flashbacks and that she changed her name. I wondered if the baby would be called Hale or Underwood. What I thought was blah the most is Claire's wardrobe........every other season her outfits were so STYLISH. IT was like she was in mourning the entire season with those outfits. AND they all looked the same except different colors. Did anyone notice at the BEGINNING CREDITS of the FINAL EPISODE.......they added a STATUE of a pregnant CLAIRE!!! It was ODD.

That's where most of my disappointment came from, too many unanswered questions when they knew it was the final season. Good nonetheless.
