Watched first ep and just didnt like it at all... maybe its coz American politics is least favorite subject in films / tv shows for me...it all seems just all very cheesy... that news reporter lol, typical love affairs etc... and what was that guy talking to the camera all about ? was it supposed to mean something? be funny or clever ? i dont get it...

should i keep watching it? or its gonna be in same style all seasons ?

That's called breaking the fourth wall. It just adds to the narrative and literally spells out what he's thinking or planning through his suspicious actions.

I'm not sure you'd enjoy it of politics is a genre you don't particularly enjoy. Obviously there's more to the show than politics. Watch 2-3 more and see how you feel.. Then drop it.. Or don't

As others said, top notch show. It's not cheesy in any form either.

The majority vote is, seasons 1 and 2 are phenomenal whole 3 fell a little short but still worth watching. Season 3 had a few character flaws that didn't flow right with seasons 1-2.
