Netflix Instant watch

makare · Sep 18, 2010

I have it. Those of you who also have Netflix do you have any instant watch suggestions?

I don't like horror or documentaries. I prefer humor and action movies.

If you don't watch 30 Rock, put the first two seasons of that on the list.

I love Netflix Instant watch.

My husband and I just started watching Avatar: The Last Airbender.

I had Spartacus: Blood and Sand series recommended to me, but I haven't gotten around to watching it yet.

If you're a Discworld fan, the two Discworld movies on there (Colour of Magic and Hogfather) are pretty good.

And there's a bunch of Mystery Science Theater 3000.

There are definitely a lot of good shows to choose from on netflix instant watch. Here are a couple of suggestions off the top of my head

Gurren Lagann
IT Crowd
Invader Zim
Firefly
Metropolis (2001)
Robotech
Avatar: The Last Airbender
NewsRadio
Sliders

Spend a good half hour rating every movie/TV show you've seen. With a decent base to work with, Netflix makes pretty solid recommendations.

Some reccos from my end if you haven't seen them and haven't been mentioned:

Black Dynamite
Arrested Development
Batman the (1966) Movie
Ong Bak 2 (purely for the action)
Zombieland

Crap, I didn't know they had Sliders either.

I'm coming, John Rhys-Davies. I'm coming.

Justice League: The New Frontier
Hogfather (I'll second Sara's suggestion)
Moon
Better Off Ted

Sadly, the TV series Eureka isn't streaming, or I'd recommend that.

Edit: I haven't seen it myself, but I've heard good things about Special.

Just finished District 9 and Repo: The Genetic Opera (you wouldn't like it, but for some reason I did). Also, I'm very slowly working through Doctor Who (I'm still on season 2), which is brilliant.
