Right on. I actually am wondering what people's opinions on House of Cards is. I love the cinematography, the Sherlock-eque text messaging, and Kevin Spacey's wonderful rendition of a Southern-accent. I think the plot is good, even if the pacing slows a little too much from time to time. Also some of the side-characters are somewhat forgettable, but overall I think Netflix did a damn good job.

I finished the first season and I have to revise my opinion of it a bit. It started off strong but I think it went a bit over-the-top. Normally, it takes a couple of seasons for a character to arc but not in this series. A little "too much" at the end there. Still, it's a good series and I'll watch season 2.
