    House of Cards has gone down hill.

I mean, its raison d'etre in the first two seasons was Frank getting to the Presidency, which was a super engaging motivation. We had to expect at least somewhat of a decline once that goal was accomplished; and that's exactly what we got. I recognize that my hope for a third season as good as the first two was unreasonable; it's just a shame that they couldn't leave well enough alone.
