HOUSE OF CARDS: SEASON TWO WHAT IS IT?
The second season of the Netfl ix political drama lands just months after it debuted on the streaming service. Kevin Spacey returns as conniving politician Frank Underwood as he tries to get journalists off the trail of his morally questionable actions from the fi rst season. Having been promoted to vice
president, he spends the season dealing with the Chinese and competing with the businessman Raymond Tusk for the trust of president Garrett Walker. Meanwhile, his wife Claire reveals
some hard to swallow truths about her past.
WHY SHOULD I STOCK THIS? This is still very much the political thriller that debuted in 2012, but far darker than it ever was before. The show was praised for the pace and quality it consistently maintained and for the new story arcs and themes it introduces, including cyber terrorism. Yet some critics complained that Underwood was portrayed as too powerful for any threat against him to be realistic. Spacey is still a delight to watch as the morally dubious politician. Before the release of season two on Netfl ix, it was announced that a third series would be coming in February 2015.

THE tech-thriller returns for a second season. Michael Emerson (Ben from Lost) stars as Howard Finch, a billionaire who creates The Machine. This super-powered gadget helps identify crime before it happens by monitoring everyone in America 24/7. At the start of the second season Finch is kidnapped, with former CIA agent John Reese hunting him down. This is while another person of interest ¬ a potential criminal – is named by the super computer. Given that the two IPs have similar themes, this might well be popular with fans of Ubisoft’s recently released hacking title Watch Dogs.
