A ruthless Congressman, Francis Underwood, and his ambitious wife Claire, will stop at nothing to conquer everything. This wicked political drama slithers through the back halls of greed, sex, love and corruption in modern D.C.

The show also stars Robin Wright, Kate Mara, Corey Stoll, Michael Kelly, Sakina Jaffrey, Kristen Connolly, Sebastian Arcelus, Boris McGiver, Constance Zimmer, Jayne Atkinson, Michel Gill, and Reg E. Cathey. All 13 episode of House of Cards premiere on February 1, 2013.

NOOOO!!! There is only one FU (in the original it was Francis Urquhart) and it's Ian Richardson!!

If you haven't seen it already go and seek it out - FU is an incredibly dark character, but Ian Richardson made you feel totally complicit in every bad deed. Still my favourite thing the BBC has ever produced.

So, does Netflix plan on brining their original shows to other countries where Netflix isn't a thing?

The first episode wasn't bad. Not the best show on TV, but I'll continue to watch it. Also, the reporter looks exactly like my ex girlfriend. It's unsettling.

It's a shame this is on Netflix. I hear that Netflix has a great catalogue in the US but it's just not worth paying for here in the UK.
