I would be overjoyed to hear I'm wrong.

Not sure what to tell you. It's more realistic than BB, understandably, since it's based on real life events. The series basically just chronicles Escobar's criminal life and his interactions with the American law enforcement.

I'd give it a 7/10. It's definitely entertaining, I think. By comparison I would give HoC a 9/10.

Definitely going to watch it then. Looking forward to the next series of Orange is the new Black.
Which reminds me; running low on Kleenex. *sips tea*

I didn't watch much of OitNB but enough to learn that the protagonist is an atheist. I quite enjoyed that, I have to admit. So is the one from The Good Wife by the way - not that I watched it.

House of Cards is f*cking brilliant; Easily one of my favorite shows of all time. Three episodes into Season 4, so far. I'm digging it more than Season 3 (which was still pretty good in my book). My personal pet peeve: When people assume that as a fan of House of Cards, I also enjoyed the snooze-fest of The West Wing or much worse, follow shitty Scandal. 

As if there's even a comparison.

Never saw one episode of the show.

Well, it's no Fuller House...
But it's quite good, nonetheless!

Seriously, you should consider checking it out.
You're just about running out of shows anyway, aren't you?

No, I always have something to watch.

I catch things on the side, that are not precisely on my list of shows, but that I watch when I am bored with nothing else to do.

Like the show Teachers or The Family Law.

And besides, from having read the synopsis of this show, it's not my style.

I even gave up on Lucifer because it was boring me. The same with Legends of Tomorrow.

What? How did I forget Legends of Tomorrow?
Why'd you quit watching?

I stopped watching because it was no longer maintaining my interest.

Interesting answer...Thanks so much.

"House of Cards" has been a very good show so far (about two thirds through season 4). Not the best ever political type show, but well above average.

I saw "Orange is the New Black" mentioned earlier. While I will admit that I'm looking forward to the fourth season and will binge watch it relentlessly, "Wentworth" is far, far superior! After seeing that show I realized Piper really is a pussy. After all her time behind bars, she's still a go along to get along little yuppie. Bea Smith came in as a new fish and became a top dog bitch you seriously don't want to fuck with! If you enjoyed "Orange," Give Wentworth a go.
