I am back on Netflix
I cut the cable cord
I felt uncomfortable watching Netflix while paying over a 100 a month for cable
Now I have no cable
more comfortable binge watching Netflix now :-)


Try getting HBO now for $15 a month, combined with Netflix for $10.

Standard DVD players are often $25-$30 while blu-ray players are in the $60-$100 range

It may keep you on the internet side of the fence for a while.

It is possible that nearly every channel will be available as a streaming service within a year or two. As long as you have good antenna reception you can catch most sports anyway.

The TV series lost the sense of humor in the movie. The funny bits in the movie make the sad parts much more poignant.

It was ok. It would have been better minus Bruce Willis.

I thought the tv series was OK too.

Had some good stuff, some not so good stuff. Watched all of seasons 1 and 2, waiting for season 3 to be available on dvd or something.
