I've watched 4 episodes thus far and I have to say, it's really good. If my wife didn't have to get up every morning at 6am, we'd be nearly done with the first season, it's been that gripping.
Check it out. Spacey is very good, especially when breaking the "fourth wall" and conversing directly with the audience. The rest of the cast, particularly Robin Wright are amazing too. The whole thing has a great feel. If I were an investor I wouldn't let the quality of this programing deter my enthusiasm. I'd be ecstatic.
Nice work Netflix.
