Even as Netflix gears up for the third season of "House of Cards" with the release of another trailer, "Sesame Street" takes aim at the political drama with "House of Bricks."

Telling "a tale as old as time," the parody stars Frank Underwolf who, despite his soothing Southern drawl, is ruthless in his ambition to get to the white brick house. "Some people say there's too much pork in this town," he says while paying a visit to the house of straw. "I could not agree more."

Of course, much like a certain Frank Underwood, Underwolf quickly learns there's a price to be paid for getting what you want.

Watch both the "Sesame Street" parody and the new "House of Cards" trailer below.
