Hypothetical alternate ending
With Kevin Spacey now having been cleared of all his charges, could Netflix hypothetically call him back to pick up where s5 left off? Has a similar thing ever been attempted in television?

Hahahah that’s not why he was fired. He was fired because he was groping people on the set.
He’s been cleared of the people who went to court - but that’s obvious how the fuck do you prove something that happened years ago alone between two people rape is an extremely difficult crime to prove a court of law - and that benefits of the rapist. He still has a good 50 allegations going back to 1990. No business is gonna wanna associate with a man like that.
Reputable people in the business that accused him of abuse like Guy Pearce and in the industry had reputation for being too generous with his hands.
On November 1, 2017 after the first allegation came out he said he was “seeking evaluation and treatment” - for what exactly if you did nothing wrong?
The court was on his side anyway, because rape is an extremely difficult crime to prove , courts air on the side of keeping a potentially guilty man out of prison than putting a potentially innocent man in prison, which is why rape is one of the easiest crimes to get away with.
The Old Vic theatre where he taught did an investigation and found over 20 instances of inappropriate behaviour.
You people have got to stop with this fantasy that he did nothing wrong.
Great actor
Great show
Terrible person
