Been an awesome ride sad to see this show go - House of Lies (2012) Discussion

Same.

I started this show a month ago and watched every episode, today was the last. Quality of the series started getting worse in the end tho.

I'll miss Don Cheadle and Kristen Bell. The other actors were starting to get insanely annoying and weren't fitting their roles towards the end, especially Josh Lawson.

I read about Bell being in another show next year, hope it'll be abother good show.

Really? I would say Kristen Bells character was the one who went through the most unbelievable changes throughout the show. I honestly feel like she's the one who ruined the show.

I didn't even know this was the last season or episode until it was over.

The first season was great to me. It gradually went down from there. Great cast I thought, all believeable in their roles, but the writing got progressively worse and left so many storylines unfinished. Sad to see it go, but maybe it's for the best.

Completely idiotic Cuba storyline, though.

Cuba is the analogy for Khan and Associates future.

I thought it was great, the idea of them having the literal opportunity of a life time within their reach, and consciously deciding to let it pass. It was the antithesis of all Marty's "Greed is Good" empire building that has been at the core of his successes and failures at home and in the office. Releasing his hubris in favor of family, in favor of incremental and steady growth.

Agreed on them making that decision... but using Cuba? And making Cuba look like a paradise that needs protected? It was disgusting.

Have you ever been to Cuba? It IS a beautiful country, beset by poverty because of the short-sighted trade restrictions imposed by 'Murrica.

Hopefully now trade is being normalised and sanctions lifted the people will start to benefit.

Hasn't been the same show since the first season. Trainwreck and I for one will not shed a tear to see it gone. I mean really, not one single likeable character on show with the exception of maybe, Monica. At least she was the same character throughout the series a b!tch and she played it well. Doug, Clyde, Monica and Marty characters were all equally annoying. Good riddance

When was Monica likeable....ever? Most vile, hated character in any TV show in history. I was hoping a bus would take her out before it was over. Monica likeable? When she wasn't on screen, maybe?

She played her role well and was the most consistent character of the show. B!tch or not, to me she was a likeable B. (The most hated character in TV history) as you say, means she must have played the sh!t out of her role.
