Pro-Spacey
Many Spacey loyalists are standing by the Academy Award winner.
They are pointing out that, in the law’s eyes, he’s innocent until proven guilty. Many are also angry that Netflix would even try to carry on the show without its lead actor or are just frustrated that Spacey actions came to light so close to the series’ planned finale.
#Netflix not cool for firing @KevinSpacey . He’s an amazing actor and i support him! Plus looks like punishing the #HouseOfCards fans.

I agree that this should happen, but shouldn’t he at least have a trial first?

It’s a good thing Netflix have fired Spacey screw him. But please don’t stop House of Cards. The writers are the best in Hollywood.

Just cancel it
There is also a group of fans in the middle. They take opposite sides when debating Spacey’s guilt, but think the same result should happen regardless: House of Cards should be cancelled.
Some think he was rightfully removed, but the show is too sullied by his actions/presence to continue on.
Others are mad that Spacey’s gone and think Netflix should just scrap everything as a result.
Just cancel house of cards now, no point doing it without Kevin Spacey ffs

I️ loved Kevin Spacey. He was one of my all time fave actors. House of Cards will not be the same without him so they just need to drop it.

House of Cards without Kevin Spacey would be like The Big Band Theory without Jim Parsons: just cancel the show.
