The unblock-us DNS seems to have stopped working for me on PS3s. Can anybody confirm if this has happened to you also?

It just returns a Netflix error and you have to set DNS back to auto for it to load at all.

The stealthy add-on for Firefox seems to do the same thing as unblock-us. Can watch Netflix US, Hulu etc... through your browser.
Thanks for the heads up.

Part of me wishes I didn't try this though. American Netflix is so much better it's unreal

I was just considering getting a PS3 for the main TV, I guess I shouldn't be surprised that Netflix would work to stop it.

EDIT: Maybe a workaround:

Anyone update their Apple TV to the newest iOS? Does it break compatibility with the US Netflix service?

I don't see how any show where lesbians end up dead could possibly be considered a good show.

Hey Thor was released on the 9th. That's pretty cool. Bunch of TED talks and the Freakanomics documentary. Decent.

I'm also seeing it as Vampire Killers... no mention of lesbians. The reviews are pretty good.

Yuh, I think they edited the title for netflix. Still credited under the original title when you watch it.

Im pretty sure the two main guys are a rip off of those Shaun of the Dead characters, but oh well.

Works right now on my 360. Testing my PS3 would require me to hook it up, and that's too much work.

Mine did the same and then I read their forums. Apparently they have a new security feature because people were leaching their DNS. You need to go to the browser, go to unblockus website, and authenticate the service. Then you'll be able to use netflix again.

Interesting factoid.

In the live action series, Die Fledermaus is named Batmanuel, who is played by the Mayor of Gotham in The Dark Knight.

Yeah, if it was the cartoon series I would have posted 5 pages of Tick images.

The live action series is still pretty funny IMO, but different, and not up to the level of the cartoon so don't get expectation levels too high.

I don't know why they named the girl "Captain Liberty" in the Live Action show. It was the only non-silly name out of The Tick, Batmanuel, and Arthur. The comic/cartoon had American Maid.
