I'm reading that from AP in the Boston Globe. I'm surprised -- I didn't think they'd do that. I'm so disappointed in Kevin Spacey -- I really enjoyed his work, but I won't be able to anymore. Being drunk doesn't excuse trying to rape a child.

Netflix had already said that season 6 would be the last season of the show, but today they actually suspended production of it. So it looks like season 5 will be the end.
I really liked that show.

Dog gone it...I just saw a tweet last week from Robert Newman (Josh from Guiding Light) that he was going to be on Season 6.
I have never seen the show but I have friends that really like it.

So Robin Wright is out a steady paycheck. That sucks for her. Ripples, people, there are ripples to everything thing.

I heard that they will finish this season. Replace him as Frank...no reason why the other actors should not be working because he's an ass

House of Cards helped her prove her own directing chops...she'll land on her feet. Plus, she's got other projects going anyway. I have a feeling I'll be cleaning out my DVD collection though...

how is that even possible in a credible way? i mean, this isn't like replacing Becky on Roseanne. nobody cared who played Becky. she wasn't the star of the show. this is the main character of Frank are are talking about. Kevin Spacey made that character who it is and the show what it is.

That your actions speak for you and we as a society need to put a person’s character before a profit?

I feel bad for the cast and crew. I really loved the show and am sad to see it go this way. But did they have a choice at this point? How would he do the press tour with this swirling around?

Kill Frank off. Have Claire finish the story.
I'm disgusted with this whole thing. Disgusted with the portion of our society that thinks it's OK to touch/take/harass/assault anyone nearby. What kind of warped sensibility does this come from?

I wonder if he will be sued by the actors and crew for loss of work due to his actions.

What kind of warped sensibility does this come from? I know! That's what we taught our daughters since they were old enough to understand. That they cannot just go an touch/harass people! Even now, as teens, they won't even tap someone on the shoulder to tell them something. They take the "keep your hands to yourself" seriously. Too bad some adults don't seem to understand that.

Damn Kevin Spacey! I”m hoping they come to their senses and continue with Robin Wright as president. How about a nice grisly assassination to get rid of Spacey?

Ripples, people, there are ripples to everything thing. i would say robin wright would be the person who will most quickly bounce back based on how highly her performance has been regarded on the show. i hope the rest of the cast and crew are as lucky.

House of Cards Season 6 Will Be All About Claire Underwood— FinallyKevin Spacey scandal or not, the show should have taken this step years ago. www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2017/12/house-of-cards-next-season-kevin-spacey"Now, the show’s final season will officially move forward without him, Sarandos said—scrapping the previously filmed material that featured Spacey. “We are excited to bring closure to fans,” he said, per T.H.R., noting that the series will now focus mainly on Robin Wright, who plays Claire Underwood. To which we say: finally. This pivot isn’t just the show’s way of moving past the Spacey scandal—it’s also a logical step House of Cards should have taken seasons ago. The natural course of the show long ago turned Frank Underwood into a nearly unbearable character, a hardheaded man who would do anything to maintain his grip on power. "

There will be a season 6 wirhout Kevin Spacey I saw it on ET last night.
It makes me incredibly sad. HOC was one of my favorites shows ever. Without KS the show is not as good. He is such a talented actor and when I heard the allegations I said WTF I admired his work so much.

At least the last season (finale) was set up to make his exit more believable. I won't say more because of spoilers. I'll continue to watch just to see what direction they take.

Kevin Spacey made that character who it is and the show what it is. I thought it was so weird when they replaced becky, to see a different face/height and pretend she's the same person. She should have gone off to school somewhere, not have a stand-in. I saw a picture of the cast getting together for their remake and both Beckys were there, I wonder how that will play out? Robin Wright had a leading role in Wonder Woman, she's doing pretty good for herself.
