Netflix "Watch Instantly"

Netflix "Watch Instantly"

I just recently rejoined Netflix and was pleased to see they have added a "Watch Instantly" feature where you can stream a movie over the internet. The selection of movies/shows is subpar, but it's free baby! Well, free as in no extra charge. You can watch 1 hour for every dollar/month your subscription is and it doesn't affect your queued/shipped movies at all. Minuses are that you have to be running Windows and Internet Explorer, but the quality is great! I have a garbage laptop, but it looks the same as a DVD to me and it hasn't skipped/paused/hiccuped once so far.

I watched maybe the first 2 episodes years ago or whenever. I can't remember why I didn't watch more. I recently saw a promo where Beth says "The only thing left to do is to kill as much as you can before they kill you" and thought yeah, I'll pass. Like WTF does that even mean?

I think it was the first episode that she was naked in, it's been all downhill for her from them on. lol


That actress is so bad lol

Late to the party, but Scavenger’s Reign on Max is pure art. It’s been a long time since I experienced something so uniquely original.

Two episodes in last night. This show rules. Already bummed that it won’t get a second sequel.

Check out uzumaki on hbo as well. Only 4 episodes. Animated as well.

Landman is pretty legit so far. That’s mostly because of Billy. He should’ve been the lead in most of Sheridan’s shows. Can’t wait until him and Hamm share the screen!

It’s as dumb as any other Sheridan show, even dumber in parts, but goddammit Billy Bob can rock an angry monologue better than most!

Pretty sure he’s just being himself.


Cross on Prime is pretty good. Aldis Hodge has always been awesome so it’s nice to see him lead a series. The case is completely bat **** but it’s pretty interesting.

This.

We went to see him and his band at a local club 20-25 years ago. What a dick! to errybody. Band members, audience, it made no difference to him.


Well damn… now I want to hear the WTF episode he did to see if it lightened up at all there. Maron is a damn good ranter himself!


I caught up through the current 6th episode of The Day of the Jackal and it's really good.


Tried 2 episodes of the new Cruel Intentions, it's pretty bad.

A man on the Inside with Ted Danson is decent but a bit slow, I may finish it.

Season 2 of Based on a True Story seems about like the 1st season.


I missed Tracker last year. Saw that season 2 is starting. Any thoughts on it?

I've enjoyed the first 2 episodes thus far. It's definitely pretty wild. Eggold plays a good villain. I really enjoyed him in the Blacklist and thought the show started going down hill after he was killed off.

My wife and eye tried to watch New Amsterdam, but we just found it boring and had a tough time enjoying Eggold in that role.

It's weak, I have still unfortunately watched most of the episodes though. lol

I like Rescue Hi-Surf a lot better.


I need to check out a recap of Based On A True Story season 1. I watched it but I can’t remember a damn thing about it. Love both of the leads so i think I liked it lol


The recap on season 2, episode 1 beginning brought back the memory of it for me.


Also couldn't remember a thing about it, or if I'd even watched it it, until I started treading the wiki episode summaries. Seems 'forgettable' would be a apt description of the show.




I only watched the first couple episodes of Pantheon a few years ago when it aired on Max I think, then they pulled it and season 2 went away before it aired, though it must have aired somewhere since there is episode ratings on IMDB for it.

Anyway, it's a really good animated show and now Netflix has bought it, and Season 1 is available there now. They should be airing Season 2 at some point probably not too far away.

Just finished episode 6 and... WTF is this case??? I didn't want to stay up that late tonight, but I have to see how they wrap this up. Bat **** was an understatement.... lol

I guess that's the copycat of The Bureau.


"Based on the series The Bureau (2015). Follows a world of even deeper intrigue and subterfuge, with characters fighting their own battles as they grapple with existential threats to the nation and the world."
