Netflix's hit series, House of Cards, continues to garner an increasing amount of attention for its astounding success, as it has been nominated for nine Emmy's without ever gracing a single television.

Kevin Spacey, who plays House Majority Whip Francis Underwood on the program, recently dished on the evolving platform of TV, which now allows viewers to watch as many episodes in one sitting as they'd like to on the Internet.

"If they want to binge - as they've been doing on House of Cards - then we should let them binge," he said.

The actor continued to push the point forward that we are experiencing a creative evolution, which he feels can't be ignored at this point in time.

"We no longer live in a world of appointment viewing. So the water cooler has gone virtual, because the discussion is now online. Studios and networks who ignore either shift - whether the increasing sophistication of storytelling, or the constantly shifting sands of technological advancement - will be left behind," he added.

With hit films under his belt such as The Usual Suspects and American Beauty, Spacey had no qualms about admitting that his people would've never allowed him to pursue television in the past.

"Frankly, 15 years ago I wouldn't have been up here lecturing you because my agent would never have allowed me to even consider being on a television series after winning an Oscar," he said.
