House of Cards was not the first. Lilyhammer was. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lilyhammer https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lilyhammer

  Lilyhammer is prototypical of what I now expect from Netflix originals -- a good hook and solid first season, followed by hours upon hours of the same thing dragged out ad infinitum.

    I'm really disappointed it ended. I was really enjoying it. I admit it wasn't as good at the end as it was at the start but it was still good enough to keep me watching and entertained. I'm still holding out hope of a return.

    You could say the same thing for just about any show. Granted maybe you get farther than season 1 (Game of Thrones up to season 3 for me, for example) but TV very much fits with "die a hero, or live long enough to become the villain."
