Oh my goodness!

Even though I know that the vast majority of society is predominantly corrupted in some form, it's still dishearteningly tragic, especially when I read/hear that concerns (or relates to) child abuse. I just can't imagine the pain and heartache that the victims/survivors went through. They will have to deal with their trauma for the rest of their lives.

My thoughts and condolences go out to the victims. They didn't (and don't) deserve to go through their traumatic experiences. I wish for their well-being, safety, and, if possible, recovery.

Looks like he's accused of sexual harassment while on the set of House Of Cards.

Oh man. He's really done now. This is fresh enough there could even be charges brought.

I really like Kevin Spacey. Now I'm not so sure.

If the accusations can be proven in a court of law, I hope he gets what he deserves.

I never really liked his Gene Hackman impression in Superman Returns anyway.

Good. That's what should happen. It says a lot about how often people get away with things like that that I figured they'd finish the last season of House of Cards before they cut ties.

Speaking of that, House of Cards is f***ed. There is no way it can end well, now. That show is mainly about Spaceys character. I'm sure they'll finagle something to bring it to some kind of conclusion but there's no way it's going to be satisfying or feel natural.

I agree.

I hope that the victims find some solace and safety from this whole situation. They really need it.

Here's how the original UK series ended.

Damn. Kevin Spacey turned out to be disgusting, didn't he?

I hope Netflix is able to salvage House of Cards. I love Claire Underwood and Doug Stamper.

Just kill off Frank and move on.

Now the movie American Beauty from 1999 where Kevin Spacey wants to have sex with an underage girl, and is accused of having gay sex with a teenage boy he buys crack from makes so much sense.

And this movie is from 1999, literally 18 years ago. Just think of how long this has been going on.

Yes, you can't forget American Beauty, the movie based on the life of Kevin Spacey that was written, directed and produced by Spacey.

I mean, they could try something, but given the whole show is about Spaceys character and the inevitable fall from grace, there's nowhere to move on to. That's sort of what I mean about the show being f***ed. They don't have a lot of options.

Yup.

RIP Netflix's House of Cards

There's no way that's referring to you. After all, your name's not Pappenbrook.

More trouble for Kevin Spacey, He's been completely cut from a film directed by Ridley Scott, the film was completely, so the director will reshoot all the Kevin Spacey scenes with another actor, Christopher Plummer will be taking over the Kevin Spacey role.
