Net Flex is fantastic!

My son put us on net flix, the 1st two mnths are free , then it is just $8 a month after that.

I started watching "Cheers", and can he my two boys (15, 13) were laughing away. They actually wait for me to get home, and we can watch it together. Good family humor, about people in a bar. Well, it's not the Waltons/or the Cosby show, but this is someting I can share with my teenage sons, and we all enjoy it.

I can't even go back and watch regular T.V anymore.
 
I love Netflix. I've had it for years, and even as I've sold DVDs, cut entertainment budgets, and such, I've never missed out. Lots of great movies and TV shows, most in HD quality. I've got Cheers, Better Off Ted, all the Star Trek series', both seasons of My Little Pony:FiM, Father Ted, all sorts of great stuff to watch. $8 a month is a steal for all of that.
 
I have a just a handful of streaming services and no cable company for tv anymore, really happy with the switch!
 
I'm loving Scrubs all over again, and discovered Arrested Development for the first time. No Star Trek or Supernatural over here at this point. I would have no problem with paying season pass fees for these and other franchises; strange that this hasn't been implemented.
 
I love Netflix.

It's a great price and you get a lot.

For one, it's really opened me up to stuff (especially shows) I wouldn't otherwise watch.

Like for some reason I just started watching Ally McBeal for the hell of it. I didn't even consider it when it was on.

I like my Net Flix subscription, but wish they had NCIS available for streaming.
Me too.

JAG too. I haven't seen most episodes in years. There are some I'd like to see again.
 
My 3 year old has seriously gotten our money's worth out of our subscription, using it more than my wife & I and his two older siblings combined. "Wanna watch Backyardigans onna Wii!" :lol:
 
I love that I can watch Netflix shows on my Kindle Fire. I've been sampling a lot of British comedies lately, Snuffbox and That Mitchell and Webb Look are really good.

Oh, and The Doctor of course. :D
 
Netflix Instant Streaming is great. I'm actually using it right now. I'll be sure to check out Father Ted.
 
I love the Internet Flicks. I've caught up on a bunch of shows that I missed out on in the first run.
Who needs cable? :P
 
I love that I can watch on my Kindle Fire too!

But Netflix streaming is fabulous for discovering obscure little indy movies that I never would have either gone to see (as if I ever get out of the house) or put in my DVD queue. I've discovered a ton of off-the-air series, too. Love it.

Combined with Amazon Prime, Netflix makes the idea of canceling cable pretty inevitable.
 
I am of a mixed feeling about Netflix, personally. I do enjoy the streaming but their library of movies for that medium is limited. Many of their videos are DVD/BRD only, which is why I keep that service. Now, back in the day, I was paying for delivery and the streaming was free. But, since they instituted separate costs for both services, I feel I'm being double-tap charged and penalized for their lack of product on the streaming end. I am, however, extremely glad that they didn't go through with splitting up the two services into two separate companies with two separate accounts, bills, etc. That would likely have been enough for me to ditch the whole thing. I just hope that, one day, their entire inventory will be available for streaming so I can turn off the deliveries for good.
