Wish to get little thrill out here? Well not to play SPOILER, get the wave ride on…Season 5, Chapter 53 / Episode1:

“This season picks up exactly where Chapter/Episode 52 of Season 4 was left off. Frank seems to be fighting a close battle to retain his presidency from Will Conway. Along with it, he is trying to divert attention of Senate from focusing on Washington Herald Story on the scam happened during Frank’s Vice Presidency regime. To counter all, Frank plans a Master stroke to divert the country’s attention to support him in waging a war against terrorism, leveraging on the killing of James Miller. In between, Clarie continues her full support to Frank despite having doubts over his intentions and policies.

Meanwhile Tom Yates continues to work on his assignment of drafting support material for  “America Works” or “AMWorks”.”

Season after Season Frank’s character ‘s  intensity is turning  towards a more emotionless, cold blooded, menacing and ruthless character.

Surprisingly these episodes were written and recorded months before Donald trump came into power in November 2016, still it looks like the writers have seen through the future. Right from the First episode of this season, many of the policies and style of work resembles with Donald trump as in announcements made in recent past including travel ban policies and war on ISIS.

The Verdict :

To sum it up, Beau Willimon has developed  a magnificent  TV show with one of the best-in-class cast  that television history has seen in recent decades.

MUST WATCH, strongly recommended with overall rating of 9/ 10. As the trailer promises and the first Episode hints, its going to be making of ONE NATION : UNDERWOOD Now and forever .

Frank Underwood is coming to India with the television premiere of House Of Cards Season 5 on Saturday, 3rd June, 5 PM onwards, only on Zee Café . Don’t miss the game, its about to take you for an amazing ride!

  1. Well after seeing the first episode and reviewing it, I researched more about the Trump and Underwood ‘Visa’ co-relation. One can say it was a gamble for the makers of HOC. Unlike Homeland makers who thought Hillary Clinton would become President and shot the recent series accordingly.

    Trump was always against foreign students and quite vocal about his stand right from early 2016. So the HOC story runners were right that if Trump became the President a change in Visa policy will be surely made.
