Looks like it could be a decent program. Kevin Spacey staring as the ruthless politician hell bent on making his way to the top
Premiers on Netflix early February in this country. Good for those who have it like me;)
Quick read on Wiki suggest they outbid HBO and AMC for the rights to the program:eek:
Will look forward to this with great interest

There is the main storyline, as with the UK original but it's supported by additional character arcs for the wife, the reporter, and for a congressman in Frank Underwood's control. This isn't surprising as it has 13 episodes to fill compared to the UK original's four.
It doesn't feel like a remake to me, which is a good thing.
very good
more new dramas netflix
First episode was highly enjoyable, but I think the UK version was better [waves Union Flag. ].
True. But I suppose the hope is that it will hook enough people into subscribing when they see what else is available. Plus, of course, you'd eventually need to subscribe if you want to watch season 2.
You might say that
My favourite bits of the original UK series were the asides. It makes the viewer feel odd but thrilling. Will spend the rest of this weekend on Netflix gorging on this I can't wait.:)
Kevin Spacey is a brilliant actor. Love David Fincher's movies too.
Three episodes in and I am most intrigued with Robin Wright's character.
The decision to release all of the episodes in one go is interesting. The only problem is that there is no "pace" at which we can discuss it.
Nice to have something to drop into the slot Boss left.
That is definitely a problem. I have been reading/following this thread but with one eye closed.... just in case I come across a "spoiler" posted by someone who is ahead of me
