:eek:

It looks like their deal with Paramount, Lionsgate, and MGM went live today because this has got to be the biggest one day update ever.

You can check out what’s all new here:

I haven’t checked it all out but it looks like there’s plenty of good stuff (and plenty of stinkers too).

Worst case scenario, you can finally get around to watching Battlefield Earth.

I just watched _Pillars of the Earth_ on Netflix Instant and while its quality was decidedly mixed (not that Netflix had anything to do with that) it did leave me hoping they’ll partner to release more new programming. I’d love to see them team up with Showtime or some of the other premium channels that I don’t want to subscribe to just in order to see one program but wouldn’t mind paying a couple of dollars extra to Netflix for premium access.

Sweet! Netflix just gets better and better.

One that was added today is the documentary **The Cove** - haven’t seen it yet, but it had some amazing reviews.

I guess I have gotten too addicted to bit torrents and free movies. I haven’t had a Netflix account for years…

I was up late last night and started watching “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” thinking to myself, “I can’t believe I never saw this in the available list.”

Now it all makes sense.

Dang, still no Star Trek TV series on there. I could work my way through everything a lot faster if I could stream it.

Yeah, ever since I started stealing money instead of working for it I find it hard to go back. 🙂

We had wondered why Netflix stopped to reassess us three times last night - now I know!

My cat’s breath smells like cat food.  
Axmen? American Pickers? Do people actually buy that shit on DVD?

Overall though it is nice to see a greater selection available.

They had TOS season one, and only season one, available for a while. I wonder why they pulled it down?

I have a list of movies in my “Saved Instant” queue, which are things that used to be available for streaming but aren’t any longer.

Thanks for the link. This is much easier to go through than the list on Netflix itself. I just started using Instant Watch, but I love it already.

Perfect timing, because my wife and I just finished _Arrested Development_ and have been looking for something to watch next. Now we have lots of choices!

Hey, look, Troll 2 is available! Now I can decide if it’s the [Best Worst Movie](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1144539/)or not!

Netflix instant watch is ruining my life. How can I get anything done when I’m tempted to watch all day long. Fiends!

Just came back to report that I’ve now watched **TAOBBAT8D** six times this week alone, thanks to this thread.

I think I’ve seen this flick like 130 times or so, yet every fucking time I hear the name “John Smallberries” I laugh like a kuru victim.

Damn, I love this movie. 😃
