Netflix arrives in Hong Kong, followed by House of Cards

Netflix has indeed launched in Hong Kong – and most of the rest of the world (apart from China).

Initially, House of Cards wasn’t available.  Yes, that’s right – the series for which Netflix is best known wasn’t available on Netflix.  Along with a lot of other shows.

The good news is that Netflix Hong Kong does now have the Netflix series House of Cards1.  Good work, Netflix people.

1 As pointed out below, they currently only have the first 3 series, which in no way diminishes the achievement by Netflix Hong Kong in securing the rights to a Netflix owned drama series.

    Yes. I am still watching series 1, but you are correct that they don’t yet have series 4 – presumably someone else has exclusive rights for a period of time. Hoping that it will be available by the time I catch up.
    Oh, and this was a deliberate mistake just to check that people are paying attention.
