COURTESY NETFLIX

A new season of the Netflix series “House of Cards” premieres on May 30.

The regular broadcast-television season might be winding down, but that doesn’t mean your TV screen is going dark.

The summer will again bring waves of fresh programming, from new dramas (Will you sink you nails into “Claws”?) to well-established favorites like “Game of Thrones,” “House of Cards” and “Orange Is the New Black.”
