Obama and the new season of House of Cards

SNOWBOUND BINGE WATCHING: East Coasters rejoice—the sun will figuratively break through the clouds today, as Netflix premieres the entire 13-episode second season of House of Cards. How many millions of Americans will hunker down and watch the whole thing during the course of what amounts to a four-day weekend? POTUS will be too busy running the country to be among those lucky viewers, so yesterday he issued this precautionary tweet to his 41 million followers:

The Wall Street Journal notes that Obama has shown himself to be a big fan of the show. Last month, while meeting execs from the tech and media sectors, he said to the group and Netflix CEO Reed Hastings, “I was just wondering if Reed brought advance copies of House of Cards.” The Prez was even invited to appear on the show. “I wish things were that ruthlessly efficient,” he quipped at the time. “I was looking at Kevin Spacey. I was saying this guy is getting a lot of stuff done.” (2/14a)
