CNBC original program explains origins of financial meltdown

CNBC announced it will premiere "House of Cards," a CNBC Original that examines the global economic crisis and the events that led up to it.

The stories of key participants in the drama - from California home buyers to Norwegian investors to former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan - bring to life the painful story of the greatest financial collapse since the Great Depression.
