What BollyAI Thinks

Season 4 represented a creative recovery after Season 3's dip to 73% on Rotten Tomatoes. The shift toward Claire Underwood as an equal co-protagonist - rather than Frank's tactical asset - gave the series fresh dramatic energy. Ben Travers at IndieWire cited the season as an 'upgrade' that found the show 'consistently finding' authenticity it had lost. The 86% Rotten Tomatoes score and Metacritic 76 confirmed the course correction. Robin Wright's performance had throughout the series outpaced the writing, and Season 4 finally gave her material commensurate with that performance.

A genuine creative recovery after Season 3's slump - the Claire-centred pivot gives the show a second protagonist worth following.
