Spacey just posted this on You Tube using the voice on Frank Underwood. At the same time Spacey was being indicted in Massachusetts for indecent assault:



I an unsure what to think about this but Spacey is one hell of an actor.
 
It is. It makes you realize how talented Spacey is and how much the show missed him in season 6.

I’ve been trying to slog through the season. It’s boring. Greg Kinnear as a bad guy doesn’t work. Diane Lane with her clothes on doesn’t work.

I knocked it off because I had invested in the first five seasons and wanted to see the ending. You are right about Kinnear. I also don't think the Diane Lane character works. My sense is that there are a lot of plot holes just because they had to rewrite so much and that has lead to to ineffective characters.

Agreed. That final season was a disaster. At most, it should have been a two-hour movie.

Better yet, just don't bother with the final season at all. I understand firing Spacey and I get why he isn't getting hired going forward, but that doesn't mean we can't still appreciate the work he did before Hollywood could no longer ignore the things he did away from the job.
 
I am a little bit surprised so many people even made it to the last season. I stopped after season 2 or three.

But Mike Tyson is celebrated and in the Hangover movies after serving three years for rape.
 
Diane Lane is awesome. And I like Kinnear. The problem with the season was their characters were totally unnecessary given the way the season played out. The final scene could have been the first scene of the season with nothing lost.

I also figure Netflix can sue Spacey for trade infringement for portraying the character he was not authorized to portray causing damage to the brand.

PS - I've always thought that Netflix Ba-Bum sound they use was a takeoff of Spacey knocking his ring on the desk in HoC- am I wrong?
