yes 8 episodes and season 2 will be completely different actors, story etc.

apparently if you watch closely enough you can get 85% of the story from just the first episode although I think you would need to have a Stephen Hawking level of intelligence and a deep interest in Weird Fiction like this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_King_in_Yellow

anyway, enjoy!

9.5/10 on IMDB. Sick cast. Adding it to my watch list.

Episode 5 TD best thing I've ever seen I think. Guy with 50k posts on 2+2's brother who wrote it. Could gush about it for ages but I won't. Just watch it! Starts Saturday night in the UK.



I can just about move a touch quicker than Hawko, but I don't think there is any danger of me pushing

Once I saw there was only 8 episodes of the first season, I decided to wait it out and binge it over the weekend once it's over.

Is that only 8 episodes ever, or season 1?

I'd google it, but spoilers innit.

It's going to be a bit like Underbelly, in that each season will be a completely different story with new characters etc.

Just knocked out House of Cards season 2 in a couple days, and wish I hadn't Sad

Too long to wait for what is undoubtedly going to be an incred 3rd season!

Is this the British or American series? I understand Kevin Spacey is doing the American version.

You might think that; I couldn't possibly comment.

I am two episodes into HOC season 2

Anticipation for next week is huge.

Spacey wonderful in it

British House of Cards is well worth catching....ahead of its time for political satire
