I have heard about this series, but had not ever seen any of it. So it was going to be a true test of the series, to truly captivate me without any prior background knowledge. And along those lines, there were some parts that I did not understand the history of, but had to take at face value that the history was now irrelevant.

This is one of those series that makes you question politics in general. With the highlighting of "political misconduct" in current events lately, it is easy to sometimes think of it as a consequence of something trivial; an unintentional task. But House of Cards delves into the lines that politicians will often cross in order to look after their own interests, or to destroy others. It really made me question the validity of every negative thing that has come up in real-life politics. And that is the mark of a truly great show.

With regards to the actual show, they are shot in sets of two, with a different director taking on each duo of episodes. It allows the series to come across as more of a feature than individual episodes. So while it flows towards the climax at the end of the season, each episode still covers its own little fiasco, that must be overcome, allowing it to be enjoyed as either a standalone, or a feature.

It features some coarse language, nudity, and implications of other sexual acts, so it is recommended for a mature audience. With approximately 9 hours of the series along with special features, the fact that I watched it all in under two days, tells you of the quality of the show. It keeps the interest, when the majority of characters are "bad"; you never know what is going to happen next.

Product reviews for listing 5665: Doctor Who: Season Two -  Type of Show: Sci-Fi

Product image for Doctor Who: Season TwoThis is the first series to feature David Tennant as the tenth incarnation of the Doctor, an alien Time Lord who travels through time and space in his TARDIS, which appears to be a British police box on the outside.

He continues to travel with his companion Rose Tyler (Billie Piper), with whom he has grown increasingly attached. They also briefly travel with Rose's boyfriend Mickey Smith (Noel Clarke), and Camille Coduri reprises her role as Rose's mother Jackie. The series is connected by a loose story arc consisting of the recurring word "Torchwood".
