Did Netflix just pull a Beyoncé?
Surprising just about everybody, the streaming service released the third season of House of Cards more than two weeks early on Wednesday — and then promptly pulled it down in a matter of minutes.
“Whoops, something went wrong…” read the Netflix error message on screens of Mashable staff who viewed portions of the episodes. “The video you are trying to play is not available.”
“Due to a technical glitch some Frank Underwood fans got a sneak peek,” a Netflix spokeswoman told Mashable. “He’ll be back on Netflix on Feb. 27.”
