What’s This TV Show About?
A Netflix political drama, House of Cards stars Robin Wright as President Claire Underwood. Michael Kelly, Jayne Atkinson, Patricia Clarkson, Constance Zimmer, Derek Cecil, Campbell Scott, Boris McGiver, Diane Lane, Greg Kinnear, and Cody Fern also star. Season six introduces sibling moguls Annette and Bill Shepherd (Lane and Kinnear), who have a complicated past with the Underwoods, as well as Annette’s devoted son, Duncan (Fern), a rising DC power player. The Shepherds harness the power of their inherited company, Shepherd Unlimited, to influence American politics and bend the country toward their shared vision.
On October 30, 2017, Netflix announced House of Cards would end with the sixth season, following sexual assault allegations against Spacey. Is there a spin-off in the works? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
We don’t have to wonder whether Netflix will cancel or renew House of Cards for season seven, since they already decided to end it with the sixth season. In the fall of 2017, when the Spacey scandal peaked and production was shut down, Netflix was mulling over a spin-off with Michael Kelly’s character, Doug Stamper. I’ll keep an eye on the trades to see if anything comes of a sequel series. Subscribe for free updates on any House of Cards news.
