Man I get that Frank is powerful and has a crapload of experience, but EVERYthing goes his way.. every time. It's a bit of an annoyance and I know the show is based around him, but everyone in Washington got to be some dumb *** mofo's to not realize some clear cut things, he just finds ways to one up everyone.
I'm completely more upset about losing Doug than Zoe. Doug was a soldier if there was one, he slipped up heavy this season and it was his time to go... but watching that dude work S1 was some great stuff. He will certainly be missed because he did everything in such a collected manner and never really lost his cool until he started catching feelings for Rachel. Next season will probably start Frank's downfall I'm guessing.

Damn, Doug = Mike. NO HALF MEASURES. Plus he kinda let it happen 
What happened to Meachum got me wondering if they did the same to Doug though
and Frank's past bodyguard from S1 and I'm wondering now if the reason why Claire doesn't like Remy is cuz they tried him too 
What I really love about Frank is even when he's losing, when he's lost an argument (in a non official capacity) he always manages to have the last word and/or have a devastating/clever quip on his way out. Yes that's how they wrote it but still the fact he'll never let you see him down and out says a lot about the character.
Walker did it to himself. From the start I found it odd the president was basically in the pocket of a businessman calling dude his mentor or w/e. That to me was extremely corrupt. Taking council from a billionaire? Things would've been much harder for Frank otherwise cuz initially he didn't know anything about their relationship until he got courted for VP. After that it was easy to pick them apart.
Ideally, I'd want this to go like 3 more seasons. The next one finishing his 2 years of Walker's term, then the next 4 years and how he got re-elected and finally another 4 years somehow cuz in a way I think he can circumvent that 2 term limit unwritten rule given he wasn't elected but simply took over that last 2 years of Walker's term. That way he'd get 10 years of being POTUS
Then maybe Claire runs on her Hillary steez 
I know that'd be a bit of a cheat summing up 4 years in to 13 eps but I don't think this show is going for 8 more seasons. I say **** the idea that the only place Frank can go from here is down. I want him to stay on top and finish there. Also hope there isn't an assassination.

I know at times on PBS they show a lot of stuff that only airs in other countries and most times they don't have the title, it'll just say Masterpiece Theater pt. 32 or w/e and they show like a whole season of shows and switch to the next.

Doug fell in love, then underestimated Rachel.
Frank gotta get killed eventually, all the dirt he has done cannot go unpunished forever. Dude is evil incarnate with a wife who is just as bad and that is why they succeed over everyone else in the game because they're a true team with already too much clout.
I'm interested in seeing how public reacts to him as POTUS because they didn't exactly approve of him and his mysterious ways as VP. Also interested in how Doug's death plays out, you know Frank will want revenge/answers and how the media will play it. I know that reporter at the Wall Street Telegraph and the Hacker ain't giving up neither, they're the only ones left who know of Frank's goonery.
Also think that his sexuality will be outted somehow since its been such a central theme.

Ideally I only want one or two more seasons. If they end it right next season I wouldn't be mad.. there's just SO much to stack against this character that I don't see them pushing it past 2 more seasons. As if things were already needed to suspend belief, any more than that would be overkill even though I love the show and characters.

The Nextflix Show is based on a series of novels which was already turned into a mini-series on the BBC in 1993.

Is Frank ayo? Serious question
Edit: just finished the chapter 24. WOAH did not expect that [emoji]128563[/emoji]
That last scene gave me chills. Although the characters besides claire, frank and doug were all written poorly (i say that because franks rise was so easy and everyone above him were dumb.) but it was amazing at the same damn time. One of the best seasons I have ever watched.

Frank is beyond labels. He's another animal altogether.

They killed off almost EVERYONE from the first season. Definitely wasn't expecting that.
Definitely wasn't expecting that.Season 3 is going to have to be quick. They really don't have much story left to go off. Regardless, HOC has been some great television.

Doug (and ultimately Frank) had a lot to lose with Rachel, he definitely messed up by catching feelings. But he was the dude all through S1 and portions of 2 that you could always count on to get it done. His monologue in S1 from the AA is pretty epic.

I'll put a kinda wild guess out there based off how this season started and ended up and say if patterns continue the hacker guy will die early in S3 and some new threat will be presented with new characters.
and some new threat will be presented with new characters.She was his drug. I don't know how the attachment got that strong but it was a good story for dude paralleling his alcoholism. Don't know why he aint smash more or try to go for the 3sum. I can understand how she reacted. I do wonder where he was planning on taking her cuz it seems this last time had more to do with the deep web hacker than him being hooked on her but it doesn't make sense why he made the girl move out cuz that was before the blackmail.Everyone saying "my dude Doug"

That last scene in season 2 gave me chills man. Incredible.
I think season 4 will be his downfall. Season 3 will still continue his rise though.
No matter how much power you have, eventually it'll all come crashing down.
Somebody said the plan is 4 seasons. Each season has 13 episodes which equals 52.
52 cards in the deck

He barely breaks the 4th wall at all this season and I miss it. Didn't like less of it at all.
If you really pay attention to when he does he's not always talking about himself, sometimes he's explaining a situation, describing an adversary, or dropping a nice metaphor for a situation and what he has to do. Lots of dope quotes, sayings, and soliloquies.
