    Watched the first 2 episodes the other night and it was great, going to run through a few more today before the game.

    Seems the reviews here don't really sync with the 3 star rating on Netflix. I watched the first episode and liked it. But, on the Netflix rating system, 3 stars out of 5 is not exactly great. There is a lot of stuff on Netflix that gets 3 stars I don't think is very good. I'm kind of surprised at the lower-ish rating. Not knowing anything about it going in, I might have never clicked it (well, if they didn't have a picture of Kevin Spacey on the film icon...who is a great actor).

    House of Lies (breaking the fourth wall) + Revenge plot + Scandal setting.

    What more do you need?

    Trust me....I honestly haven't heard a single negative review yet from people and critics. Not sure why it would only have 3 stars but it's been praised.

    This show is really fantastic. Best show I've seen since Breaking Bad.

    Can't wait for more shows to adopt this format. Being able to watch at your own pace is so much better than waiting on a weekly basis.

    My biggest complaint of the show - it really really makes me want to eat ribs. :(

    Beyond that I love it.

    Just finished the season, very intriguing. I haven't seen the original, but from what I've read the plot doesn't deviate too far. Does anyone know when season 2 comes out? Also as viewers is everyone rooting for Frank to succeed? I know I am.
