I like that the black characters are not so subpar. They actually hold weight in the show. The black dude that represent the big company has some power in this show.
House of Cards - New Netflix Original Series
- Thread starter MadWun
- Start date
Netflix outbid HBO for it actually.
They spent $100 Million on House of Cards
Damn netflix banking like that
Damn netflix banking like that
Read 2 articles about it in both Time and GQ magazine.
Netflix is not fucking around: They plan to pump out 3 original series a year.
Arrested Development is already in the pipelines to come out soon.
It is an interesting new way to put TV shows out except I'd prefer that they did not put all episodes out, maybe like 3 a week or something.
Na I like that they put it all out there like that...you have the option of marathoning it or pacing yourself on a daily/weekly basis however you wanna do it...thanks for the info tho...def looking fwd to those new series...I liked Lilyhammer too
Frank + Peter are my fav characters...would be nice to see them on the same page w/ dude sobered up...white chic got a tight little ass...I love small asses like that...I might fuck around and be finish w/ this series before the weekend...about to watch ep 6 now
I started on Friday night.....finished it on Sunday. Shit was that good.
Cannot WAIT til the next season!
Ya I started watching it too late...started watching it Sunday morning...otherwise I'd probably be finished too
my only beef is Frank is a little too cocky/successful...doesn't seem to have any flaws...dude even gets away w/ cheating if you can even call it that
since I am a sucker for any shows with a political bent and, so far, I haven't been disappointed
NYT discusses the trend of marathoning, or binge-watching. As an avid reader, I liked what Damon Lindelof said about how such treatments basically make watching these series like reading a novel. And just like a good novel, I'm not looking forward to it ending...

Wow...I spoke too soon...that debate was BRUTAL!!!

Loved the ending for ep 6 w/ the score playing in the background...top notch show...his wife is a predator her damn self
Yep had to step back once I saw the price.

There are 13 episodes in season 1 and season 2 has already been ordered. They have some big names directing, high production values plus movie stars in the show.... it would not surprise me if Spacey was pulling anything up to a mill or more an episode - a
Remember when Friends was at its peak the 6 main actors were on a million each per episode on a studio based show and it was worth it cos it pulled in huge numbers especially in the 18-49 advertising sweetspot many of whom were high income.... and it sold shitloads abroad and is syndicated globally to this day.
The West Wing could cost anything in the region of 6 million and episode upwards - Sheen was on 300K or so, it had a lot of actors pulling 6 figures per episode (in a 20 episode season) but again the money was worth it as it had the highest number of wealthy educated viewers and a lot watching then and now - a lot of premium cars were sold in those slots and it did wonders for NBCs brand

Yo was it just me or was anyone else picking up on some undertones between Frank and his boy during the school reunion ep?
wasnt just you..when i first seen that part i was like did these guys fool around a couple times back then
Yeah they were on some ambiguously gay duo type shit there.....Yo was it just me or was anyone else picking up on some undertones between Frank and his boy during the school reunion ep?

Interesting that a nigga name "toine" is confirming this
Definitely...and
@ the brother telling dude wife to come to his room...that dude is scary...followed them all weekend and shit
He was trying to blow the back off Jenny.Definitely...and
Ya man...dude character came on strong as hell these last few eps...I getting tired of Frank character...always liked Peter's character...like the character he's developed into as well...most dynamic character so far...
Fuck Peter! He was a Big time Fuck up well before Frank got there. Man I was getting pissed by the last 3 episodes. I understand they wanted to create a situation where people are starting to get hints about the true nature of Frank and his group. However, its a damn shame how they started putting the pieces together....
I've never seen so many people so eager to talk to reporters about people in government no less! Risking life and career no problem.....non-sense!

Whoa slow down..almost done w/ ep 10 but so far it's pretty fucked up how all these characters are going full retard in eps 9 + 10...I can relate to Peter's fuck ups so that's why he's one of the more interesting characters to me
