It's almost time. This week the third season of House of Cards will come to Netflix streaming, and based on the early peek we got courtesy of a glitch, it's pretty good. As usual you can expect it at about 3AM ET on Friday morning, along with a new stand-up comedy special from Ralphie May. Until then however, there's plenty of other choices, like the award-winning Edward Snowden documentary Citizenfour, which premieres tonight on HBO at 9PM. On Blu-ray Big Hero 6, Beyond the Lights and Whiplash bring excellent options with Oscars credibility, while on TV we have the series finale of Parks & Recreation. Look after the break to check out each day's highlights, including trailers and let us know what you think (or what we missed).
