House of Cards on Netflix

Anyone watch? Pretty solid. Spacey is the man. I'm probably halfway through the 2nd season.

Great show. When the 2nd season came out, I watched every episode over a weekend.

When does season 3 come out?

Next February I think.

All my current shows are out of season so I was thinking of checking this out. Spacey is great, even if he plays the same smug asshole in pretty much everything.

I don't know a single person that started watching that didn't get hooked. IMHO, this is one of the best things ever produced, and a big F U to television.

Might as well get some use out of my Netflix account. Sadly, I pay $7.99 for their service and wind up streaming more stuff on free sites since Netflix offers next to nothing these days.

Would def. recommend House of Cards. Starts a tad slow, but in no time, you'll be hooked. 50 minute episodes or so. Some fine talent to look at too.

I've actually gotten some value out of lately, watching shows like Burn Notice, Dexter, Chuck, etc. that I never watched during their heyday.

Try Orange is the New Black. Not as good as House of Cards, but still pretty darned good.

Must watch the first episode of Orange is the new Black. You wont regret it. My wife's friends recommend the show to her. It was funny when she was asking why they recommended this show during the first episode.

Orange > House of Cards

Spacey plays his role real well, but he and his hot wife are dicks. Same with Piper Chapman.

I love House of Cards. Yes, Spacey and Princess Buttercup are "dicks" but they are so good at being dicks that it's compelling TV. The end of season 2 was perfect. I would be completely satisfied if there were never a season 3.

There has to be four seasons:

13 episodes per season
Four season x 13 episodes = 52 episodes
52 = number of cards in a deck

BOOM

Finished the 2nd season. Bravo.
