Movies and shows like those are the work of many people. It's not fair to the rest of those involved to shun a work because of the unrelated actions of a few people who contributed to it. Francis Underwood and Lester Burnham are just characters. Kevin Spacey portrayed them and his skill and appearance helped bring them to life but I don't see why enjoying their stories has to be about the actor in whom they manifested. If you're worried about benefiting people like him when you pay money for their works, remember that their share of the profits of the sales/rentals is insignificant compared to the contracts and licensing deals they're now being refused or kicked out of. There are far more horrible things consumers are funding far more directly than the crimes by people who starred in the movie/show you're watching on your laptop. The right course forward is to investigate every allegation, support victims and put measures into place to make it less likely to happen again -- all you can do is attempt to pressure those in positions to make those decisions to make the right ones.
