Because Kevin Spacey plays a great villian...
Mainstream loves the villian...
(Tony Soprano,Walter White) being the most acclaimed in recent years.
In terms of realism! House of Cards vs The Wire??

theres a huge difference between the world GOT is set in and house of cards 
Frank Underwood is a Southern, Blue Dog Democrat, a breed that's all but dead now. The realism is in HoC stops there and gets only worse bruh 
The Wire single-handedly changed TV bro
I love "The Wire"....but how, exactly? It was all but ignored until it went off the air.

Yeah, I'm with you on this. It didn't really change anything. It perfected a bunch of things already in play, but it didn't change anything.

The Wire. 2 main reasons. In House of Cards politics actually moves fast, legislation gets passed quickly, etc. The 2nd big thing is that no president would be as dumb as the president in House of Cards.

Frank Underwood only has to deal with tusk and lanagan. How about the 10.000 workers a guy like tusk would have under his payroll etc etc
