It's pretty good. Michael Parks is absolutely amazing as the Fred Phelps-ish pastor.

I never understand this network. I know they seem to have a lot of legal issues. I watched the old "The Thing" with Kurt Russell a few months back...went to rewatch it again yesterday and its no longer on there at all.

There are some titles that rotate in and out. Used to be more when they had the deal with Starz.

Some titles have an experiation date (they are licensed for some amont of time, so the expire), you can see those dates in your instant queue.

I highly recommend checking out this site if you have a Netflix Streaming account: http://instantwatcher.com/

Watched Thor over the weekend - nice!

Re: Netflix Instant Streaming Recommendations Thread

First thing I watched on Netflix was "4192". GREAT documentary, watch it if you haven't.

In the last week I've gotten through 3 seasons of "The Wonder Years". I had the biggest crush on Winnie Cooper when that show first aired.

Just watched 4192. I'd never seen it before. It was well done.

I finally got around to watching 4192 yesterday. It was good but some of it was a little annoying. Specifically when they kept talking about how Pete wasn't physically gifted, give me a break.

Watched the People vs George Lucas. If your a Star Wars geek, it's probably worth your time.

I have thought about watching it and I have never seen any of the Star Wars movies.

Watched documentary called resurrect the dead: the toynbee tiles mystery.. Had never heard anything about this, but I loved the documentary and am thoroughly intrigued to find out more.

I've been watching the series Jericho. About halfway through. Not too bad.

I just watched "4192" last night. I enjoyed it but thought the interspersed narration by JK Simmons was cheesy and completely unnecessary.

It's always fun to hear the old stories and see the highlights of Rose and the Big Red Machine but for me, the highlight of the whole thing was the old Aqua Velva commercial showing Rose singing with Vic "Mel Sharples" Tayback. You just don't get comedy gold like that anymore.

Loved the show. I would suggest it to anyone who hasn't yet seen it.

For anyone interested AMC's Hell on Wheels is now available. It's about an ex confederate soldier hunting down former Union soldiers who killed his wife while working on the transcontinental railroad.
