Netflix's flagship original programming effort, House of Cards, dropped the other day, and chances are you've heard because a lot of people have been talking about it.

Does the interest surge generated by this kind of binge-worthy release match the same kind of growing buzz you can get for traditionally released shows? Especially dramas? We'll have to wait a bit to really find out, but what's your hunch: smart or stupid?
