Any watchers of this amazing program on here? My god. This show alone warrants a Netflix subscription. Just finished season one and I'm itchin' for them to release season two. The performances (especially Kevin Spacey's) are just phenomenal, and the writing is pretty consistently good throughout. I've never been one for political drama, but sweet Jesus. Addicting show. Quick synopsis: Frank Underwood (Kevin Spacey) is the United States Congress House of Representatives Majority Whip. A new president is elected to the White House, and he had led Frank to believe that the position of Secretary of State would be his. Frank doesn't get the position, so he formulates a plan to get back at the president and attain the political power he was after.
I watched one episode to try it, finished the whole one in one weekend. This is by far worth a Netflix subscription alone; I loved every minute of it. The story is compelling, the acting is superb, and it keeps you engaged throughout. One of the best series I've seen in awhile.
