10 more days! can't fucking wait. I'm planning to grind the whole thing in one sitting with some friends. Does Netflix usually release seasons at 12am?

just finished it
did I forget what happened the last 2 seasons or something?
seems like this season turned into a soap opera about boy-girl trouble and the politics, scheming, wheeling and dealing, took the back seat <<it's still there mind you but the relationships took a step up (not just Underwood's but everybody's)
only read if u've watched it all
Spoiler!
i don't give a crap about Remy and that ladies relationship...their characters, especially Remy's, didn't need to be explored at all, and Remy should have been written out a lot sooner...
a lot of the characters felt like time wasters more than anything
thomas yates (guy from boardwalk empire), his character started off pretty good but then it fell apart with almost a 'wtf? is going on?'
and i didn't really buy the whole claire/francis break-up as it seemed Francis was fixing their relationship to claires approval with each episode, but then in the last 1or2 eps it's as if none of that happened and she just hates his guts
and woohoo at least they didn't end the show on the 3rd season
all in all it was alright (i did finish it already...) but there were a lot of nitpicks other than what was mentioned in my spoiler, i'd say the previous 2 seasons were far stronger
This show never gives us what we expect - it's all part of the allure of House of Cards. Season 3 wasn't as exciting/intense as I thought it would be, but I'm still looking forward to Season 4!
Ya season 3 was pretty disappointing, very uneventful and not exciting compared to season 2. I did think episode 11 and 12 were very good though. The finale needed more closure, it was so abrupt.
Sadly Frank vs. Petrov is nowhere near as intense as Frank vs. Raymond Tusk in season 2. Petrov's character starts to fade towards the end of the season, kind of a waste of such a cool character
I just finished season 3 and Im pretty disappointed in season 3 compared to 1 and 2. I usually watched 1 ep or 2 episodes a week but I watched the last 6 episodes in the last 3 days just to get the show done with. You could see the direction it was heading and the plot lines started getting predictable.
You knew power would corrupt Frank. Their relationship would deteriorate, Remy wouldn't work out (he was so bad ass in season 1), Doug was a side show compared to season 1 and 2.
And all of Franks dealings went from 'how is he going to make this happen' like season 1 and 2 to 'how is this going to fuck itself up' in season 3.
Is season 4 confirmed?
I guess this is a good case of how the rise to the top is far more interesting than being on top.
