This is a public service announcement: House of Cards season two goes live on Netflix at 3:01 a.m. ET and 12:01 a.m. PT. Many fans did not know this early Friday morning.
Confused and angry fans who thought all 13 episodes of the new season were supposed to arrive on Netflix one minute past midnight were in for a rude awakening when the season did not appear. They quickly expressed their displeasures on Twitter.
