Was anyone else expecting a 3-way when Claire and Frank were sitting together and shooting the shit with their body guard? The scene was right after Frank told her he got caught looking at porn and I was like, "WELP I KNOW WHERE THIS IS GOING".

Get it together Tycrone, and get off the Internets. Seriously, that sucks--that was one of the few moments in my life where I was legitimately shocked by a TV show, sucks to have that ruined.

Just finished watching this show. I don't think I would've been surprised by Zoe's death anyway, but it's tough to say.

I really enjoyed it from start to finish, I love the drama in politics and legislation. I could've done without most of the personal bullshit suspense though. I just stopped caring about Rachel early in the second season.

Rachel was useless. She was there just to further the story. I wish that the assistant dude didn't fall for her, though. It was weak of him. However, I guess he deserved his own death for doing so.

Stamper was one of my favorite characters in the show, but yeah, once they grew his character in that direction he was toast. His character and the show in general are about being ruthless, dispassionate and focused. Once he lost that he was done.

Or maybe we will get a couple more seasons of Frank keeping his power but gradually losing everyone close to him, Claire included.

This is where I hope they take the show. Hopefully they do it via new material and don't just have his past sins come out one by one, I'm already tired of all the skeletons he's got, I want new ones.

I expected him to do something with her. I did not expect him to throw her dumb slut-ass in front of a train. lol.

I thought there would be some sort of discrediting subplot or something. And I love the way they just said, "Nah. Fuck that." I still like S2, but can't help but feel it would have been stronger if they'd added more asides like in S1 and kept to their first episode idea of "We could -- but that's fucking played out. EAT TRAIN"

While it isn't crazy to think he may kill her or have her killed at some point, the fact that it happened in the first episode is what made it a "holy shit" moment
