    Hi ladies

    This is a spinoff from the favorite shows post. I feel like I have exhausted Netflix instant TV shows. LOL 

    I love to watch tv seasons back to back (I cannot stand to follow a show real time...waiting a week in between episodes). Please share the best instant TV shows you have watched on Netflix. Feel free to include movies too! I need to get some good things in my queue :)

    Thanks!

    Prison Break and The L Word were the first ones i watched on Netlfix when i got it. I love watching shows that are complete so i can watch them all the way through.

    The show that we watch most often on Netflix or Hulu Plus is definitely Law and Order: SVU so that's my choice.  I also like to watch my Gilmore Girls dvds sometimes.  I don't know if either of these are available instantly but if not here's an article I just found too.  Smile

    Well, if you haven't watched it, My So Called Life is on Netflix, and is my favoritist show ever.  Ever ever ever.  :-)  I have the boxset so I watch it a lot there, but now Netflix is awesome and allows you to as well.

    Also, Brothers and Sisters has most of the seasons available...that's a good and addictive show.  :-)  Also addictive, though not necessarily good, is Nip/Tuck.  

    Currently, I've been watching the X-Files, which is enjoyable.  OOOO!  And if you like this type of show, I think there's like, 12 or 13 seasons of Law and Order SVU, which is a great show.

    I think I've already indicated I watch too many shows on there.  I think I can keep listing more if needed though.

    @mandb122: I didn't know AD was on there... I have all of the DVDs so I guess that's why I never bothered to check. In that case I suggest that as well. BtVS is always a win too. ...V Mars is on there?? okay that too! :]

    @Mollytov:  I hope you get it soon too! I just checked and it's still on US netflix.  So maybe it'll migrate up there soon.

    You're probably overloaded already, but we basically spend all our time streaming netflix shows.  Greek is not exactly the best show ever, but it is adorable, and we're currently really into Slings and Arrows.  Totally second The League as well, especially if you're at all into football.

    we are currently finishing up the Nip Tuck series on Netflix.  It's a good show, better in the first few seasons than the last few seasons.  It's very sexual though.

     

    I also recently watched Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders Making the Team.  I was more shocked while watching that show.  The things they say to those girls is ridiculous!

    I reccommend The Tudors, Pushing Daisies and Glee for TV series. If you want an offbeat movie that is terribly low budget, but good and quirky nonetheless, check out Lo.

    -Sons of Anarchy (took a few episodes to really get into it but FI and I LOOOOVE it!)

    -Dexter (seasons 1 & 2 are on the instant queue but you can get 3 & 4 through their DVD queue)

    -Supernatural

    -That 70s Show (I never got into the show until I started watching from the beginning & followed the story line, rather than watching episodes here & there)

    -The Office

    -Samantha Who (only lasted 2 seasons but super cute show.. love Christina Applegate in this)

    -Dollhouse

    -Numb3rs

    -30 Rock

     

    THis thread is giving me some ideas too!

    You can keep yourself entertained for days with Dr Who. Dead Like Me is also a good one, and Eureka. And you can waste away a whole weekend on Say Yes to the Dress.
