Going off of the new strip, how great is Sherlock you guys? Isn't it the best? The first season (three 90-minute episodes) is on there now.
Speaking of quality British television, the first two seasons of Misfits are up on Hulu right now, and the third is being posted at one episode a week. It's a drama/comedy bout a bunch of juvenile delinquents who get super powers and kinda goes off the rails from there. It's by far the best, most realistic, most fun depiction of super-powers on TV or film. This is the show that Smallville and Heroes wanted to be. There is your standard amount of vulgar British teen soap opera in it, but even that's done well enough that it shouldn't really bother you if that's not totally your thing. The writing really is just smart and wickedly funny. Reccomended.

Thanks. Thanks a lot. I really needed to get hooked on something else.
(PS. Actual thanks.)

Street Sharks. Jawsome.

Tucker And Dale Fight Evil is a hoot. Or it was when I watched it late at night with friends. (Alan Tudyk is in it!)

If you haven't seen Downton Abbey, you should probably go fix that. I think there's just series 1 up there, which is good, because series 3 doesn't air until September. Booo
Being Human US. You should watch that.
Archangel is a TV movie with Daniel Craig as a Brit in Russia solving a mystery. If you didn't start up Netflix the second you read "Daniel Craig," I really don't know what to say to you.
Centurion. Michael Fassbender as a Roman. Just go already.
Reel Injun, a documentary on the portrayal of Native Americans in Hollywood. I'm probably the only Indian here, so I have no idea if anyone else is interested in this, but give it a shot.
Avoid - Arn: The Knight Templar. Maybe someone here will like it, but I was disappointed. I was pulled in by the medieval history which, for the most part, is more accurate than other medieval Europe movies, but was supremely disappointed by how cheesy and cliched it was.

I've been wanting to see Reel Injiun for ages; had no idea it was on Netflix. Thanks for the heads-up!

Yep.

Seconded. And I'm fairly certain it is impossible for Alan Tudyk to play an unattractive man.

Re-watched a few episodes of Workaholics last night. It's terrible, foul, dumb, offensive, and, well, hilarious. I highly recommend the episode, "Checkpoint Gnarly" and whatever the Juggalo episode is titled.

I've been rewatching Parks and Rec by myself and Buffy the Vampire Slayer with my sister. Buffy isn't as fun as I remembered though I watched it when I was depressed (read: working at McDonalds)
