It’s summer time, and when it’s too hot to be outside, it’s a good time to catch up on Netflix.
My house is somewhat obsessed with Netflix streaming through the Wii. When there’s nothing new on television, what do you watch on Netflix or get on DVD? Do you do television series or movies?

I have more things in my instant queue then I will probably ever watch. Right now I’m watching Doctor Who and Parks and Rec Season 2. I’m also big into stand-up comedy so I watch a show or 2 a month, as well as documentaries surrounding the food industry.
The next shows on my list include Mad Men, Battlestar Galactica, and Buffy.
My queue is massive, even though I have streaming only. Mostly I tend to binge out on TV shows, usually British ones. Right now, it’s a lot of Battlestar Gallactica.
I cut the cable a couple years ago, all I watch is Netflix streaming and I love it. There really is so much to choose from I start watching one series and then get sucked into another. So much to see, so little time!!
Right now I have BSG, Phinneas and Ferb, Backyardagins, and The Last Airbender in my streaming cue. Can you guess who watches more?
I watched a great movie on The Instants the other night, World’s Greatest Dad. It’s a movie by Bobcat Goldthwait, starring Robin Williams, and it’s dark, dark, dark comedy. I wouldn’t put it on if there’s any chance the kids are going to walk in and see any of it, but I think you would appreciate it.
*There is surprise Mork wang.
Saw it on streaming a while back. So good and twisted.
I’ve been watching Kingdom. Stephen Fry is soothing.
Me too. Or rather, my mom has been marathoning it, and I keep stopping in sometimes to watch with her.
Just watched Pariah last night. It was sometimes difficult to watch but ended so nicely. Loved that.  And before that I watched Attack the Block which I LOVED.  I might just buy that movie.
And on instant, I’m rewatching Doctor Who, and getting ready to start Downton Abbey.
Right now it’s mostly British shows and exercise videos. The exercise videos are great in theory because I will in theory use them to exercise. So far, this theory has not really panned out, but it is still within the realm of possibility!
I do love the very bizarre categories that Netflix will create for you. Mine currently are: Campy Satires, Dark Action Thrillers, Quirky Horror Movies, Exciting TV Shows, Mind-bending Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Feel-good Showbiz Musicals, Goofy Classic TV Shows, Emotional Foreign Thrillers, Cerebral Independent Comedies, and Witty TV Shows Featuring a Strong Female Lead.
I love them, too. They are all so me that it’s almost embarrassing how predictible I am.
Witty Comedies Featuring a Strong Female Lead, Romantic BBC TV Shows, Exciting Space-Travel TV Shows. I’m pretty sure that last one is a category based solely on how many times I’ve streamed Firefly.
I’m rewatching Twin Peaks. The cherry pie’s to die for, Diane.
That’s a damn fine cup of coffee.
Quincy M.E.! Netflix is quite the enabler when it comes to indulging my addiction to old crime dramas. We also have Ned’s Declassified and Phineas and Ferb, for family time.
I’m trying really ahrd not to get sucked into Quincy. I loved that show when i was younger. Â IF they get Trapper John MD, it’s all over.
