Mind blown.

So hows this stack up with breaking bad on a scale to 1 to 10? Someone the other day told me they thought this was just as good if not better

It is nowhere close to being as good as Breaking Bad. Frank is a cartoon character and everyone else is portrayed as a buffoon. House of Cards is fun, but it's nowhere close to being the best show on TV (so to speak). I'd give it a 6.

This is a little harsh, but I agree, it pales in comparison to Breaking Bad.

6 is a lowball, but stacking it against say, True Detective, now as they are "concurrent" doesn't have the same level of satisfaction. Either way, it's good, and no way a waste of time watching it.

It's entertaining, but I don't think it will be remembered 10 years from now. If Breaking Bad is a 10, then I'd put The Wire and The Sopranos at a 9s, Justified and The Shield at 8s and Lost and the Walking Dead at 7s. The only multi-dimensional character on the show was Russo (and maybe Zoe). Spacey and Wright do good job playing villains, but there isn't any humanity in either of them. Maybe I'm judging it too much on the 2cnd season. The first season was certainly better. I'm surprised at the lack of bigger name supporting actors in the 2cnd season. I figured that with all the buzz the 1st season got people would be lining up to do the show. |

This show is ****ing brilliant. As much as I enjoy being able to marathon the shit out of it, I hate having to wait a year for the new season to come out. I felt the same way last year. In fact, I'd say this season was even better and I find myself almost depressed a little that it will be 12 more months before I get to see it pick back up.
Episode 11 was the spoiler, and while they alluded to Frank's fancy pants past, no, I had no clue that one was coming down the pipes. Pun intended. The final couple of episodes were just exhilarating as far as television goes. Lots of emotional ups and downs as you waited to see how things would play out. I tried watching the first episode of the original and was bored to death. Fincher and Spacey are absolutely making this show what it is. The acting is just superb by most of the major players. |

For example, I'm having a ton of fun reading about, discussing, and analyzing every tiny bit of "True Detective". And that keeps the "buzz" on the show high for a longer period of time. With this "all at once" format, nobody knows where anyone else is. You can't talk about it much, for fear of spoilers. Sure, you can talk after you know they've seen it all, but it's just not the same. |

Just finished the season. Spacey's accent and some of Underwood's preposterous asides are distracting at times, but this is a consistently entertaining and engaging show. Some of it is predictable, but only because it's a kind of mystery. Good ones always give you enough to play ahead. However, it still has achieved the feeling that (almost) anything can happen and (almost) no one is safe. Those are my favorite shows to watch.
Spoiler!
