I am watching the original BBC 'House of Cards' on Netflix streaming. I must say the British version is much more effective at using direct commentary to the viewer. Kevin Spacey is good but Ian Richardson is better at pulling it off. It is funny that the US revived a 20 year old BBC series. I guess we Americans have no imagination any more. I can't wait for the remake of 'Fawlty Towers' with Adam Sandler playing the part of Basil. Just kidding.

Interesting!

I have just reached episode 7 in the American series. Kevin Spacey is really good.
