Great new show just finished season one. One of the better shows I've seen recently, something you can watch inbetween GOT episodes. I highly recommend it, it's good straight from the start, hardly any filler

I was thinking about watching it... but i'm not fond of politics, think I can still enjoy it?
I hate politics, I think it's a bunch of nonsense, but I very much enjoy this show and highly recommend it. The main character is so badass you learn to love him

Indubitably! Thought it started a little slow but picks up quick by about the 3rd episode. You should buy Netflix stock after this. They already have 3 other shows in the works now, they are going to become their own HBO, their own cable network, without all the hassle of having to actually have a cable channel to belong on. Genius idea. Own the content, own the station, own the network, just do whatever the fuck you want whenever you want.
Anybody got a link for subtitles by any chance?
I usually understand fairly well without any, but this one is a bit complicated and I tend to watch TV shows at night when tired. I just watched the 2nd episode and by the end I had no fucking idea what I just saw.

yea i think u can, i think politic is a snooze fest, know little of it, and i lose attention almost instant each time i come on an article or hear people talk about it, and i thought the show was pretty amazing xD
I watched it in almost one sitting, just kept jumping and doing some stretches in between each episode, and i rememberd to drink water and pee when I needed.

Yeah I mean the show has a kinda humorous way of building suspense. Everything will be all chill, then Kevin will walk up to some guy, and be like "I'm going to increase taxes in your district by funneling money through direct income stream revenues at a yield of .03%! SUCK MY DICK" and then the music gets all dramatic like someone just got murdered, and you're like "ahhh, something important must have just happened". But the show gets *really* good towards the last few episodes when it starts to involve more cliche conspiracies that are at least easy to understand, and driven home well with Spacey's acting.
bye now

It's not a bunch of thinly-veiled liberal rhetoric disguised as a show like "Newsroom" is it? If not, I'm game.

I saw the first few episodes of newsroom, it's very cheesy would not recommend - first 2-3 episodes are ok rest get repedetive
