Holy Crap, First three episodes, business as usual. Same feel as season three and then episode four happened.
It was so fucking smart. I was getting so bored with the bitchiness between Frank and Claire and I love that this allowed Claire to take the spotlight. The bumblingness of the VP pissed me off though. I know he got put there by Frank purposely, but even still.
I love that Lucas got to play his part again, I hated that he just was wasting in jail, and I think that was a great way to pull the editor back into the store
I'm a little skeptical about how damn quickly Frank bounced back from a full liver transfer and I was screaming at the TV when Doug was donating to the other Liver guy.
And Claire and Yates? I'm so glad they crammed some sexiness into this season - it's what I missed from season 1 and damn is Yates sexy, but the breakfast? Holy fuck - awkward!
I love the interactions between Conway and Frank and the visual of Claire and Frank aging and this young beautiful family. Conway is so smart and smarmy and just the right match for Frank.
I'm bored of Doug, I only have an episode and a half left but I hope something happens to him.
Phew! My DH doesn't watch so thanks for listening to all my thoughts!

I finished it last night. I have random thoughts.
The Underwoods are terrifying. WTF is Doug doing with that woman?
I thought that the reporter from the Herald was going to die. I can't believe that Seth and Cathy Durant just kept showing up to work like no one had threatened to kill them.
Tom is creepy.
Oh, and the Conway's son is the worst. You don't get to wander around the White House, taking juice and toy soldiers and not shaking the president's hand. I did enjoy when Claire turned the obnoxious "do you regret not having kids" question back on Hannah.

Frank can't kill him. The spotlight is too bright. And Frank knows that quite a few people are suspicious about Zoe and Peter. If yet someone else connected to all of that died? Um... yeah. He can't smarm his way out of that.
And yeah- Seth and Cathy? For them to keep going like they are, I just sit there and think "is ambition really THAT blinding???". When Frank threatened cathy and pseudo confessed to killing Zoe and Peter - it was chilling. For her to just be all "la-ti-da back to work as normal!!!!!"" - I don't get it.

ECB, I was scared something was going to happen to him or his dog when he was at his house. I felt better once he was in the White House and the story was published.
I watched the whole thing last weekend in about 36 hours, lol. It was SO GOOD! At the end of the 4th episode I was screaming "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! MEEEEEEEEECHUM!!!!" I was so so so sad he died but he had lots of nice moments in the first three episodes, especially the hand tracing.
I loved that the former Herald editor pieces the season 2 story together and went public with it, and that Jackie and Remy came forward.
At the end when Frank is feeling like it's all over and Claire convinces him that they need to "bring the terror" or whatever, what do you think that means exactly? How do they plan to win the election with that? I know there are only a few weeks left until the election at the end of the season.

Did you ever see the movie "Wag the Dog"? They manufacture a fake war (like, totally fake - on a soundstage with actors) to draw attention away from a scandal during election season. I think that's their plan, except the war is going to be real. He's going to look strong and presidential and like he's defending America from terrorists. They wanted the hostage to die to justify attacking ICO.

That was one of my favorite moments. It was pretty perfect.
I also really hope they have Claire start talking into the camera now.

I had a liver transplant and I spent more time yelling at the TV than watching. They did such a great job with some of the story and failed miserably at the rest.

Yeah. Where was the moon face? I couldn't walk across a room for the first few weeks.
The open convention thing was really neat for me as a Canadian, to see. But I feel like Kathy took a little too long to clue in. The general who became Conway's VP was a bit naive. Awesome season
I cheered and scared the dog when Freddy said, "You're a motherfucker, Mr. President."
Bumping because I just finished watching. LOL to this-
31. Can you really kill a person with a cup? Asking for Seth.
The bolded below made me LOL:
6. Why is Frank beating up Dream Claire? Why is Dream Claire stabbing Frank? Why did they have to add the squishy sound when she goes for the eyes? This is all one question because when I first screamed it, it was in a single sentence.
