House Of Cards is the best political show on television. Season 5 might be my favourite they have ever done. By this point a core group of main characters has been established. It is very easy to dive right into the season. The pace is solid and consistent. Each episode ends with key revelations and the next carries the momentum on towards a strong finish. I feel the characters and plot lines are more unified this season. It is the Underwood administration against the world with all the dirty tricks and vicious back stabbing you could hope for. This episode ties the season together beautifully and completely opens the story up for next season. I really have no idea what will happen. Another thing I appreciate is that the show does not force feed you the writers own political opinions. You can probably find that in it if you want to, but, you don't have to. The Underwoods are smart, charming and willing to do anything they can to acquire power. Who cares what their political opinions are? I enjoyed this a lot and already look forward to season 6.
