I defy you to begin it and be able to not go directly on to the next episode. Having said all that, I ain't see Spacey's version so I don't know if it's better, worse or the same, but this is a classic BBC series.

No. I have the books but only started the first one so far.
Don't bother Ki. I feel like the original is only good if you know UK politics. It didn't do anything for me. I watched two episodes then stopped. All originals aren't greatness.

*shrug* I mean I'll still watch it since it at least seems interesting. I forgot how good season 4 of House of Cards is though. The first time through I didn't really like it much but there's a lot of details in this one and I'm catching all of them. It's great. Super stoked for the next season now.

Yeah, I'm on the second. But it's clear that there is a lot of material that was left out. The point is, it can't be battles and crises every single episode. Gotta build up the story, fill out the characters.

It's totally excellent. Sheen is a true star. Starts to stutter around season seven but up to then I found it to be gold all the way. I actually started watching it by accident, realised what it was, said Hell no and then couldn't stop watching it. It became my favourite show when it originally aired. Highly recommended.

Finished the first 2 seasons.. That is all that's on Netflix. I wasn't disappointed, but I feel like the story is just now going somewhere. The season 1 cliffhanger was pretty lackluster. Also, I'm enjoying Mike's story more than Jimmy's, but overall it's been great. Looking forward to next season, fuck Chuck.
