and robin wright, it had a very good writer, and you liked the original michael dobbs house of cards, which was a british production. i only knew of it because of that video store. because i was able to rent it beforehand. most people, when commissioning something like house of cards, would expect a pilot, they go through many layers, you commissioned it without a pilot, you put down a reported £100 million, what made you confident that was a bit worth making? a bet worth making? there was no real data, meaning there was no data that would tell you yes or no or this or that. it was mostly the real human intuition. about being able to say, this is a pedigree, a television show with an incredible pedigree, david fincher directs, robin wright, kevin spacey, beau willimon wrote three amazing scripts that were almost shootable at the time. so if there ever was a project that you could just add water, this was going to be it. and i felt if we were going to get into original programming at some point, then let's do this in a way that we can't look back and say, maybe we didn't try hard eno
