Or maybe 9. Anyway, didn't watch the entire series, and don't intend to watch Season 2. I will, however, never miss a single episode of Downton Abbey. The characters are believable and the look at that period of England's history is most compelling. House of Cards has folded for me, but I would like to think Frank will get his one of these days. Should be some accountability for Peter's murder if nothing else. However, I'm pretty sure Frank reach his goal and end up as president. Disturbing, but realistic.

Cheers.

I do thank you for posting John Cramer's videos about HoC. There were times when I wondered if he had watched the same episode I did, but his take was interesting. I quickly began to despise Frank in HoC but on the other hand found myself feeling bad for Thomas in Downton. Go figure! The season finale will soon be upon us, so I'm keeping fingers crossed that many more seasons are ahead!

You may well be right on these various points. Frank is such a charming villain...and his wife as well........although now with her longing for a child, I find her strangely more approachable.

I will be right there watching Season 2 as soon as it airs.

Keep on analyzing!

no friend of Franks'.
