The Clintons Binge Watched ‘House of Cards’ Together
Regardless of what side of the aisle you may sit on in terms of politics, everyone can enjoy an entertaining movie or television show. That’s why it was surprising to see Hillary Clinton speak so candidly about the Netflix Original Series, ‘House of Cards‘.
Hillary Clinton did an interview with People magazine about becoming a grandmother and having additional free time after she stepped down as Secretary of State. But, it was interesting for her to comment that she and Bill Clinton binged-watched House of Cards together.
Clinton provided a glimpse into her life as a private citizen these past 16 months, even dishing on organizing her closets and binge-watching TV.
“Oh, that was good, too,” she said, describing a little self-consciously how she and her husband Bill “totally binge-watched” the first season of House of Cards. Part of the appeal, she explained, was “a little bit of the, ‘Oh, my gosh, I can’t believe we can just sit here and do this’ and ‘We’re only going to watch one episode, oh, let’s watch another. Okay, well, we have time, we’re not going anywhere, let’s watch a third.’ I know that sounds kind of devoid of content.”
We can only imagine if they felt any similarities in the government they experienced and the one they watched on television. Either way, production for Season 3 of House of Cards is heating up and after a long battle between the production company and the state of Maryland, production is getting started this summer.
Casting directors are now casting for extras and speaking roles in the movie, including a new “NSA director” role.
We can only wait what the next season of House of Cards holds in store for us. Just sit in comfort knowing that the Clinton’s are impatiently waiting to see what happens next.
