Season Three of this critically acclaimed political drama, has constantly been brewing, boiling and stewing giving us little whiffs of what might happen and what will actually happen. Reaching a critical level in all aspects, it’s safe to say that this finale was quite unexpected.

Frank Underwood is spiralling out of control.

The President and his wife, are being attacked from all sides and even their façade of a marriage seems to be a breaking point. In this penultimate episode of Season Three, it becomes apparent how much Frank needs Claire. Compared to last week where we were shown exactly how much Claire needs him, this time it's a role reversal. Frank is the face of his campaign, yet Claire is the all-important voice giving the people of America hope. Hope that Claire, it seems, will no longer provide for her husband’s benefit.

“A vote for Frank Underwood, is a vote for America Works”

With the 2015 elections looming heavily over us as each and every political party trying to prove their worth to the masses, Chapter 37 seems a rather fitting episode for such a time. Without a doubt this is the most nail biting, enticing and revealing episode of season three so far. From the get go this episode resonates spitefulness and viciousness as it is made painfully obviously how vindictive this man and woman are when put up against each other.

What’s the best way to deal with problems? Forget about them, hide from them? Or confront them head on with all your might? As President, it’s near impossible to ignore any crisis, as Underwood states whilst indulging writer Tom about the lack of sleep that comes with the job. This episodes problem, well we could go so far as to say this entire season’s problem, has been Petrov. It’s blatantly obvious we are supposed to despise this Russian tyrant, but the perfectly evil performance given by Lars Mikkelsen just makes you want to applaud the man for being so malicious during desperate times.

Gotham "Under the Knife" Review (Spoilers!)

Have you seen this man? We suspect that he may have the decent plots we desperately need.

After last week’s episode, ‘Beasts of Prey’ and even after Gotham has taken over a month out, sadly the show is still the same old drab it has always been. Yes, drab maybe a pretty harsh word it use, and thus a word one would ordinarily try to refrain from using in the same context as Batman; but this week's, Under the Knife offers us nothing we haven’t seen way back since episode one.

Since Franks colleagues asked him to step down, in this episode this is the first time we have seen him actually engage with his supporters. Of course, there have been snippets but nothing like the scenes we are presented with here. It’s almost like watching a famous star or football coach get a team raring to go before a match; a touch of hooliganism some might say.

Some people love Frank Underwood. Some people really don’t – in fact it’s hard to sort out those who loathe his tactics and those who simply agree because they are wise enough to go along with him. You could go as far as to say the man has been like a hurricane the moment his smug backside hit that presidential chair.

Portal - I'm With Geek Review

Created by independent studio Future Artists, director Mark Ashmore gives us a five-part webseries exploring the concept of a virtual world that is so readily available that anyone can become hooked on it. At the heart of Portal we have alternative universes, advanced technologies and one very addictive game. This unique webseries offers us something that isn’t too far from what society wants now; addiction might be a term used flippantly, but it's a real term that causes real damage. Portal is an addiction, so much so they have banned it. This game offers the chance to enter a surreal universe so perfect, so great compared to your current lifestyle, that the authorities have put a stop to anyone using it.

Over the last few chapters it’s been Frank who has been unsure of his position; his presidential status. Yet here we are with what appears to be an entirely different First Lady, a very emotional and impulsive one. This is by far the most engaging episode of Season Three yet, as we see Claire and Frank travel to Russia in the hope of negotiating peace. As usual nothing is a walk in the park when it comes to politics and the treaty that they had taken months to set in stone is completely and utterly obliterated by Claire’s sudden apparent feelings.

Frank Underwood isn’t running for President in the next election. He said that he was stepping down and only focused on getting his grand idea locked into the American society. But do we believe him? No chance. Well there are few members of the cabinet that seem his choice is suspicious too, leading to some unexpected candidates to come forward. Luckily, this episode has branched away from the dinner table and straight into the conceited politics the writers of the show do so well.
