All 13 episodes of the show that brings David Fincher and Kevin Spacey back together became available at midnight. I'll be watching this weekend.

Definitely going to watch this and I am really happy that Netflix is doing this. I hope more shows happen this way.

I was an extra in this, in a scene where Kate Mara walks into a bar and gets a phone call. I had to drink warm O'Douls.

I like it a lot. I'm on episode 8 so far. A couple of rough moments but overall its making Netflix worth the money.

Great show. Surprisingly, Robin Wright is really the standout for me.

Really loving it so far. I've only seen the first 3 episodes, though, and did feel a slight dip in quality in episode 3.

Finished it up last night.

Good show, a bit predictable at times, but I'm looking forward to next season.

I really like the fact that they just put the entire series out, instead of weekly episodes.

Quick question for those of you who've seen the last few episodes:
Spoiler: show
Does Claire know Frank killed Russo? I know they issued that statement to the press together the morning after he died, and I know Claire said she sees him (or his children) in dreams that keep her awake at night, but is she aware it was Frank who physically killed him? Or does she just think he orchestrated his downfall and exacerbated his suicidal leanings? I may have missed this.
