Screen Scene: In praise of “House Of Cards” and a new source for quality shows

Good writing can improve a silly plot, but writing alone can’t save a series from bad casting or acting. Nothing torpedoes a production quicker than actors you simply don’t care about.

Love them, hate them; do anything but be indifferent to them. Actors who don’t register with the audience kill a film project quicker than a 32 round magazine in an assault rifle.
