Not gonna get into much detail on how I acquired a special DVD collection but Kevin Spacey himself brought them in for everyone. Came with a special pass to watch the episodes later in the year when they were finally released on Netflix.
Just a week and a half before the premiere of its much anticipated second season, The Hollywood Reporter confirmed today that House of Cards has been renewed for a third season. The Netflix drama made waves last spring when it premiered its first season all at once in its entirety and became a prime example of “binge viewing,” and one-hour drama fans fell head over heels for its political intrigue, impeccable cast, and razor-sharp writing.
In the U.S. adaptation of the BBC miniseries, Kevin Spacey stars as a conniving U.S. Representative hell-bent on revenge against those who’ve wronged him — including the President himself. Produced by Spacey and David Fincher, House of Cards also stars Robin Wright, Kata Mara, Michael Kelly, and Kirsten Connolly as a few of the other players in Underwood’s corrupt game. Though the series was initially imagined as a two-season pick-up, showrunner Beau Willimon and the cast have all expressed interest in continuing the story further.
Many viewers of the show consumed the first season in less than a week, and after a TV binge like that, a year is a long time to wait. All 13 episodes of House of Cards Season 2 will be available for streaming on Netflix beginning Friday, February 14th, so… at least we all know what our Valentine’s Day weekend plans are…."

YESSSSSS! Just what I wanted, they can wrap it up after Season 3.. but I knew there was more story to be told after the first season ended.
Plowed through season 1 over the last 24 hours. Absolutely a great show, my new favorite. Excited for season two next week.
My favorite line from the show thus far has been:
"You see, Freddy believes that if a fridge falls off a mini van you'll swerve out of it's way. I believe it's the fridge's job to swerve out of mine!" - Frank Underwood
Also,
The best actor on the show aside from Spacey by far has been Corey Stoll. He needs to be a lead actor in some big films, he needs recognition.
I also think Mahershala Ali could be a very big actor in the not so distant future. He is fantastic.
Finally this is back. It's been too long. I was raving about this all last summer but since it aint on tv only so few were up on it. Good thing Netflix is formatted the way it is
Might get me in a light refresher just so I can reabsorb the little things.
I did my re-watch last week... Russo goin' out like a chump, but I still felt for 'em man.. Underwood gives NO dambs in getting what he wants.
Kinda hope Remi has a bigger role this upcoming season, and Zoe finds a way to die... she's so annoying and knows too much. She's cute to look at but Mara's acting is kind of a turnoff. Underwood/Claire are both great in their roles but Stamper steals the show for me.. The cool calm and collected right hand that does all the dirty work.
