We were also fans of "Doc Martin"...nice, quirky English comedy.
Our favorite now is "Madmen" ...Just wondering when they are going to add the new season? If you watch 5 years worth of a show in a month and it takes a year to get the next episode, you kinda forget where you were....But I do LOVE being able to watch an entire season of a show at my leisure.
BTW, I heard recently that Disney has come on board with Netflix. That should provide for some great title additions.

Yes agree Greg. We started watching the new NETFLIX series HOUSE of CARDS last night...1st couple of 13 episodes so far that have a great start. Contemporary with a great cast of characters and actors.
Also:
We Have a Pope (Film)
was an interesting movie on Netflix this past holiday season.
An interesting plot twist that now seems very timely.

We Have a Pope is a 2011 Italian comedy-drama film directed by Nanni Moretti.[1] Its original title is Habemus Papam, the Latin phrase used upon the announcement of a new pope. The film stars Michel Piccoli as a cardinal who, against his wishes, is elected pope. Moretti co-stars as a psychiatrist who is called in to help the pope overcome his panic.[2] The film premiered in Italy in April 2011 and played in competition at the 64th Cannes Film Festival.

IMO This movie is worth the time to watch and more of a Drama and actually goes through the whole appointment process. Includes some of the inner-drama prior to nominating...and everything from inside the Vatican inner sanctums and the Cardinals viewpoint, to the waiting masses of followers...
