Shout out the guys that recommended south park loving the show , just downloaded season 1-19 , still at season one though but it's been great so far....
You can never go wrong with south park. I love the fact that there is always something new to learn, and it is based on true happenings around us (Most names and agencies are not changed). Eric, Stan, Kyle, kenny, Randy, Mr Garrison, Token, Butters, Mr Chef are all fun characters.


I also re-downloaded the 20 seasons again, this time I had to download subtitles per episode. This would help me in capturing funny moments like I do here to other Tv shows.

Eeya, the thing pain me wella grin grin

Dude, I sincerely apologise if I got under your skin, I have a tendency to do that sometimes. If by striking out most of my comments and throwing slurs at me made you feel better, then by all means, you can have a go at this one as well after I'm done. wink grin

Thing is you didn't make any sense at all in your previous post. I know you're probably a genius that doesn't reason in an average man's capacity, but you should have made the minimal effort to comprehend my gibberish before getting emotional. I'm only but a simple man after all. embarassed

Alright, that's it. Cheers mate! cool smiley
Funny you. I trust you took most of my points.

Pain? Probably those words helped u feel better.

You are saying Emotional and Simple man... (Are you really sure about your sexuality? )

Man up Bro!!! My points are

1) If u are not a fan of a series, you dont need to spew thrash about it.
2) Dont compare incompatible series.

If you cant understand these points then clearly it is beyond me.

You completely quoted me out of context. I don't even know where you were getting at. Now lemme break down what I said in simple terms.

My colleague loves the 5th season just like you (irrespective of the fact that almost everyone online has something bad to say about it), but then she has a wacky taste in television series to begin with. I use the series, Quantico (a universally hated show), to drive home my point. Get it now?
You need to read slowly... What has Quantico got to do with HoC?

No

No... Dont rush,

just answer that.


You are even implying I have a wacky taste in TV series (I would pretend I dint see that). But honestly, If u are talking about one TV series, just stick with that. You and that Chic combined knows nothing about Tv Series (FACT)



koice:
Au contraire. Dude, you ain't getting me at all. It's like we're on two different dimensions or something...
Sure... We aint on the same TV series dimension. I wonder how it took you this long to notice, Probably cos u reason in french and have to translate it to English undecided


koice:
Okay, now this is getting amusing.

[s]What do GoT & HoC have in common? Politics and power, right? The former is a real life politics played out in a fantasy setting, whilst the later is a real life politics played out in a real world settings (albeit in a parallel universe).

Since politics and power were the running themes, don't you think it would make a lot of sense to compare main characters in both shows that share similar traits to one another? In this case Frank & Little Finger share some similarities thus comparing and contrasting their respective characteristics isn't only unevitable but criminal not to do so.

....

[/s]
Mehn!!! in a desperate attempt to sound intelligent, you just shot yourself in the foot. You dont know anything about GOT and HoC.


koice:
I'll stop here since I've already expressed my opinion on the current season pretty clearly on previous posts. Our opinions doesn't have align but please try to be objective in your analysis. Any sane person that have watched the whole season and then come out to say Season 5 delivered is nothing but a fanboy.
Your Opinion is noted and respected, I doubt you read the last part of my last quote. In all your statements you always seem to end well. It is clear you cant watch a series without comparing it with another one. You have proved that with all your posts.

Are we going to argue about being a fan of HoC? I am a Fan, you clearly are not a fan. You dont need to rubbish a series you did not comprehend. You clearly really misunderstood. I think the issue is your comprehension skills, you couldn't even understand what i highlighted in my last quote.

Anyways its not worth it... Enjoy bro!!!

koice:
You're actually the only other person that I have heard say this. The first person was my colleague but she also highly dig Quantico. Go figure.
You see, thats the problem... Comparing One show with another (Never seen an episode of Quantico in my life). Let HoC be HoC, and GOT be GOT. You are the only one here comparing different characters of a Series that dont "Gel" grin

So the "Go figure" is a message to your future self huh



koice:
Actually, you sound pretty biased, like you've made up your mind that you're gonna like it no matter what. That's blind fanboyism not objectivity. Don't get me wrong, I admire your royalty to the show, but daring to suggest that anyone with a differing opinion doesn't get it reeks of radical fanboyism to me.
Biased? Mehn dude, you need to go through your first post I quoted and redifine bias. I have seen so many shows to be labelled a blind follower. I critic shows I dont dig, outline positives and negatives. I am sure you have not seen my previous posts. How can I make up my mind to like it before I actually completed all episodes before making assessment?

Funny enough you read my preview with a bias. You expected Frank underwood to be better than Lord baelish... Who even compares 2 characters from 2 different genre of shows? When Watching a show, Patience and Following the plot is always key. You were already tired at episode 3... Lol!!! Struggled to get to the 13th episode. What you should have done was seek extra views and opinions if you dint understand the show.


Everything builds till the season finale, which was not anticipated. Cos i never saw Francis stepping down for Claire, not after all the little victories he had accomplished. If you were to say the characters did not interpret the script much to your satisfaction, then we can beg to differ. Not all you typed Above.




koice:
This season just dragged for me. The writing for me was sloppy and all over the place with multiple arcs.

One of the things that attracted me to HoC was that it was realistic portrayal of real world politics. Aside from the murders, everything in Seasons 1 and 2 were things that I can see, and definitely believe. They really nailed the line of believable fiction. However, as the Seasons wore on they seemed to want to tie it in with modern events. Season 3 or 4 had the Russia plotline which was clearly influenced from Obama and Putin.

This season has a lot of parallels as well. I feel like the writers are just so lazy that instead of coming up with exciting scenarios they just rehash real world events. Everything at the end was so lazy and just convenient for the writers.

Claire's last words of the season practically made me cringe. I thought they were making them (Frank & Claire) a badass force to be reckoned with, but here we are again back to the Season 3 finale... rinse and repeat. She's just fvcking annoying now.

Bottom line, the show is going in circles and they need to hit the brakes, put it out of it's miserly, just cancel it quietly.
Now this is objectivity!!! smiley

Most things u said here are true except the script being sloppy. The series has always been about Frank and Claire attaining power. The means power is gotten is always shaddy, mindblowing, and annoying. Francis talked about a level higher than the presidency, he orchestrated the whole thing to put claire in power just for a pardon for him and Doug. Seems Claire has her own agenda.
TV/MoviesRe: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by Freciprocal: 10:28pm On Jun 01, 2017
House of Cards Season 5

After so much anticipation... HoC finally delivers. This season happens to be better than the previous season.

To those who did not understand season 5, its either American Politics is not their thing, or the watched the show with a biased mind. Frank underwood has always been a selfish manipulative person. He always begins with the end in mind.


Claire is another Woman one cannot predict, she is loyal until provoked. The way Francis and Claire plays politics... It is something that should be studied. I still love the way Francis talks to us while others are standing still (While sharing his thoughts), I also noticed Claire is doing same now.

My favorite character has always been Doug Stamper, the guy loyal die. Never have I seen one so loyal in most of the series I have been watching.

If you have been following from season 1, i implore you to continue. As I say most times, the beauty of a tv series lies in its Plot. And unargueably HoC season 5 has a very good plot. I dont want to give out details till most people have completed the season. A lot of catching up to do for those still stuck in earlier seasons...We dey wait una grin


I normally could have posted pictures, but i am giving guys time to download and watch... make I no go post spoiler as someone said tongue

it's a good thing peeps like u still exist,but taboo is trashy na.. I fell asleep so many times I deleted the episodes and later downaloaded it again,thinking maybe I would adjust,baba the stuffz boring die!!!!!!
maybe its because I've seen other shows were the main actor did great like peaky blinders.

I would recommend

peaky blinders
the last kingdom (Game of thrones alternative)
boardwalk empire
The Borgias (if you're Catholic don't watch abeg)
Black mirror grin
Taboo trashy? shocked

I dont think so. I downloaded it and did not watch it cos I had preferences. I am currently watching it and its fun (More Pictures to come).

Black Mirror is also legit... every episode keeps you on edge. S01E01 is still my favourite.

same reason i stopped watching Homeland, they shouldn't have killed broody.

And the season6 is not that interesting, it focused mainly on Oliver quin.
Its a very good show... Carrie and Saul are my favourites. Dont be shocked if Broody returns in future seasons.

Also its Peter Quinn not Oliver Quinn the highly unstable boring Archer grin
