Do you now pronounce yourself as a casual or cult fan in the name of politics, dark humor, and streaming drama? For many of us, ‘House of Cards’ doesn’t just date back to 1645 under the guise of a structure or argument built to collapse, ignored, and overlooked. Instead, Netflix’s first-ever short series, ‘House of Cards’, kept cult fans at the edge of their seats with political chess games played by Frank and Claire Underwood to entertain our unadulterated thoughts on policy and human rights, and education. After all, will fans ever forgive Frank for being familiarly associated with the KKK or our beloved Claire’s reasoning for resigning as a US Ambassador favorite?
