18 Most Hotly Anticipated TV Scenes Of 2018

15. Frank Underwood's Death - House Of Cards

Despite the production being delayed after Kevin Spacey's firing from the show, House of Cards is still slated for a 2018 release (whether it happens or not is another matter).

Spacey's removal, while understandable, means that there'll be an added furore around the series when it does return, and that the showrunners have to find a way of writing him out of the series without him appearing.

The easiest way to do that - and indeed, the only option given how Season 5 set up a Claire vs Frank conflict - is to kill him off. The real draw of Season 6 as a whole will be seeing Robin Wright's Claire as POTUS, but in terms of a specific scene it's going to be interesting to see how they actually deal with Frank Underwood.
