10 Reasons You Should Be Watching Season Two of House of Cards

5. Frank And Claire’s Relationship

HOUSE OF CARDS

House of Cards is unique in the respect that it doesn’t require viewers to be an expert on American politics despite the fact that it’s such a major focus of the series. Even if most of it all goes over your head (which it may well do for some non-US audiences), it’s impossible to not become invested with what goes on behind closed doors in Washington DC.

However, equally as compelling is the character drama, and the most interesting two characters in that regard are Frank and Claire Underwood. Season one showed us that their marriage is far from normal, but the husband and wife duo become an even greater team this year as part of Frank’s quest for power. However, there’s one moment in particular which just goes to show that there is still so much to explore between them.
