Post by Tasdik »

Alright so, I keep seeing people talking about HOC. Question is, is it actually any good?

I had absolutely no interest in it, but I watched it and it was actually pretty good. I say give it a chance, watch an ep or 2.

Just finished season 2 yesterday.

I've finished S1 and S2

it's good but it's a HBO try hard. It's not accurate on a lot the political powers which throws me off when I watch it but Kevin Spacey makes the show for me

I don't care much for politics and I tend to dislike politicians but Kevin Spacey's superb acting sells it intriguingly...Normally I would be with DarkJackal and hate his character but he plays it so well...He makes being manipulative, deceptive and spinning concepts and ideas interesting to watch.....

I don't think there was ever a show/movie that didn't make me hate Kevin Spacey's character.

A show made for entertainment might not be accurately portraying real life and the way things really work?

So uh, apparently, while using nefarious methods to watch the show online, I started at season 2, then skipped back to season 1.
