So after talking to a few people it seems like my DNS code is no good. I've tried a couple others as well and none of them work. What's the best way to get current DNS codes that work?

Didnt see this show mentioned earlier in the thread - recently got sucked into 'orange is the new black'. Made for netflix series created by jenji kohan (sp), creator of weeds.

It definetely grew on me as it went on. Going to watch the season finale tonite, started about a week and a half ago.

EDIT: ya just saw it couple pages back. Apparently i need help with the search function. Anyway, good show.

Interesting article in the Financial Post about the possibility of Netflix offering movies as they're released in theatre, or creating in-house movies.

If they bring the same kind of standards we're seeing from their original series' I say "why not?".

I don't imagine they will be able to release films as they are released in theatres. Probably, at best, a 2 week delay to allow filmmakers to accumulate profit at the box-office.

I would rather not see this, as I still do like going to theaters for the occasional movie, and this would likely kill them completely.

I hate theaters, my home theatre setup is good enough most of the time. And they are also looking into DVD features being available as well. I wouldn't mind that for a few movies.

Is netflix going to pay a billion dollars one day for major blockbusters? Stupid idea.

Edit: only works if you do a cinema on demand thing. Which direct tv already does... no way it works in netflix' current model.

Please excuse my lack of knowledge. I'm relatively new to Netflix and don't really know how shows get released. But I just noticed the shield was on Netflix Canada but only seasons 1-6 and not the final season. Anyone know why?

I own all the seasons so not a big deal, just curious more than anything.

Wow yeah that's odd. It's all FX I think so I honestly have no idea.

Maybe they decided the end is so depressing they'd rather not have season 7 at all?? Ha!

So I go to watch Fast Five on Netflix, get halfway through the movie, then realize that for all the Portuguese speaking parts (which there are many of) there are no subtitles. If I try turning the subtitles on in the menu, only the English speaking parts get captioned. How the hell are you supposed to watch a movie with multiple languages being spoken if Netflix strips the subtitles out of them? Bigtime fail

Yep. They were uploading them the day after the live airing.

Go do a 7 day trial of UnblockUS, switch your library to UK, watch and enjoy.

This is the case with an endless number of Netflix movies. You can only watch Star Trek 6 if you speak Klingon.

Anyone else having trouble with Netflix on gaming devices? My library is seriously lacking on my Xbox. Shows I can get on my computer don't show up when I browse/search on my Xbox. Same thing was going on with my relatives' Wii yesterday.

It looks like they have pulled Star Trek- Next Generation from the library.

I've had netflix for two years now, and I've never noticed TNG on there. I watch it from a PS3, is that why?
