Kevin Spacey

We’ll have to wait a bit longer than usual for House of Cards Season 5 (though really, who couldn’t use a break from politics), and Netflix is helpfully here to fill the void. See for yourself in our first photos of the season, which reveal guest star Patricia Clarkson, returning Suicide Squad-mate Joel Kinnaman and more.

Just yesterday, we confirmed that House of Cards would move from its winter perch to premiere in April or beyond, and leave it to Frank Underwood to pull focus with a dramatic announcement. Season 5 is coming in May, and the first teaser somehow manages to make America bleak again.

Oft-stated throughout 2016 was the sentiment that even heightened political realities like House of Cards would find our real-life election far-fetched. Now, with inauguration looming, Season 5 has a bitter climate to debut against, and may not premiere until April (or later), per a recent shareholder report.

House of Cards isn’t the type of series to keep every last bit of detail under wraps until its premiere, but Season 4 footage has been hard to come by, promotion instead focused on ominous campaign ads of the Underwood trail. At long last, however, we finally have our first real footage in a new teaser, and none less ominous.

Netflix's House of Cards seems tailor-made for the intricacy of American politics, but did you know the series originated in the U.K., or as a book before that? Or that much of the series subs in Baltimore, Maryland for Washington D.C.? Mind the train tracks for our 17th episode of ‘You Think You Know TV?,’ which claws up the political food chain for Netflix's House of Cards!

One show was a funny loving comedy in the eighties.  The other is a dark runaway hit on streaming video.  Watch what happens when you combine the two.  I know, it doesn't make much sense, until you check out the video above!  

Truth is stranger than fiction.  Forget Kevin Spacey's President Underwood on Netflix.  President Obama is the one who has all the power.  Can he be stopped?

Who needs a new season of House of Cards when you have a real life stalker?  It must be a challenge to be Kevin Spacey these days.  The Kevin Miller Hotlist looks at the actor's challenge of dealing with a cyber stalker which tops today's trending stories.
