Building ‘House of Cards’ in 300 Seconds
The Netflix hit is due to return this week and in case you need a refresher, or maybe want to skip Season 1, here’s a lightning flash trip through all the main plot points from the premiere season, brought to you by the website “What’s Trending”. The virtual roller coaster ride rightly highlights HOC’s writer’s artistry as we’re swept through 13 episodes of plot gyrations in five minutes. Then we’re just left wondering if hostess Shira Lazar can really spit it all out that fast, or if they’re just accelerating things a touch in the editing suite. Either way, you’ll be up-to-date for your next winter binge with Kevin Spacey. –Eric Gould
