Must See HDTV for the week of February 11th: Winter Olympics, House of Cards
For the next couple of weeks it will be all-Winter Olympics, all the time, but what about TV that's not curling, speed skating and some combination of skiing and shooting? Fans of Netflix's House of Cards have had Valentine's Day circled for quite a while now, since that's when season two will make its streaming debut. Non-Olympic sports fans have NBA All-Star weekend and the beginning of Daytona 500 qualifying to look forward to, while games can check out World of Tanks on Xbox 360 and Far Cry Classic on Xbox 360 and PS3. Check after the break for trailers plus our weekly listing of what to look out for in TV, Blu-ray and gaming.
