I have just started this. I can't wait. This is the future of content, so it will be great to see how it plays out. Can't wait to see the meta data from this, see what the numbers tell us.

Good points. I think that makes sense for shows that have cliffhangers or something at the end of each episode. Lost is a good example. I didn't come across this problem during House of Cards, it flowed well.
If releasing shows like this becomes more popular though, the production might be intentionally curved to fit that model of binge watching.

It's kiiind of a spoiler that you get to see his home office I guess, but
it totally is. I can't even imagine how much that would cost, let alone in NYC.
Russo's radio interview was soooo painful to watch, I want him to succeed but he keeps fucking up. But man as an actor Corey Stoll steals every scene in HOC
but where did he go at the end? FUUUUCK I want to sleep but this show is so good!!!
