One of the more notable TV actor exits in recent memory was Kevin Spacey's controversial departure from Netflix's "House of Cards".

What began as Netflix's first foray into making prestige TV ended in a mess of a final season when Spacey was fired by Netflix ahead of the sixth and final season after sexual assault allegations were leveled against its star.

Thankfully, Spacey's co-star Robin Wright elevated the muddled season as Claire Underwood, the wife of conniving politician Frank Underwood, who assumes power following her husband's death.




If only the story of Frank Underwood ended at that point. After a period of time in which Spacey was out of the spotlight, the actor reprised his role as Frank in an eerie video on his personal YouTube channel, which became something of an unwanted Christmas Eve tradition.

Spacey also reprised his role in an ad for comedian Tim Dillon's Netflix special, which is especially surprising given how quick Netflix was to cut ties with the actor following his public cancellation.
