    Arrested Development season 4. I'm up to episode 9 now. I was initially underwhelmed, Arrested Development seasons 1-3 are brilliant, it was abruptly cancelled about 6 years ago. But it's getting better as it goes along, as the stories intertwine, and I'm beginning to love this show all over again.

    Yeah I'm only two episodes in yet, it's amusing but not up to previous standard yet. Glad to hear it improves, it seems like it will get better once it has all the filling in the gaps stuff done and dusted.

    The Rocketeer is on Irish Netflix, looking forward to rewatching it. Dirty Pretty Things has also been added, very good film from what I remember.

    An absolute must watch for anyone remotely interested in contemporary cinema. A director fulfilling their potential absolutely - breathtakingly put together, so satisfying to pick apart and analyse after the fact. Wildly ambitious (and wildly successful) in terms of pure cinematic storytelling that trusts the audience completely. Certainly one of the finest films I've had the pleasure to sit through this year.

    Nurse Jackie has it all... Dark, Funny & has some really sick moments that I shamefully say is very funny.

    Really looking forward to seeing this - Primer is one of my all time favourites

    I'm sure it has been recommended here before, but I am really enjoying Friday Night Lights, nearly finished season 1 with plenty of seasons left to go.

    Its up on US Netflix.

    Buffy The Vampire Slayer has just gone from three seasons to seven - the whole enchilada, all 144 episodes. It would be easy to understate just how seminal, accomplished and potentially rewarding Joss Whedon's "little show that could" really is.

    Super has been added to Netflix US, t'is an absolute gem of a Superhero comedy that has overtly dark tones.

    The recent update for the PS3 app made dns trickery difficult. Still works fine on every other device and most services such as unblockus have found a work around for the PS3.

    Damn, I just checked that. I was refused entry in to the USA and Canada, two of the best places to watch Netflix whilst travelling. This is not good news.

    EDIT. I'm on PS3, having read the last couple of comments.

    No problems here. I was using the PS3 earlier as well. I guess it's only a problem with certain providers.

    The unfriendly guys in US and Canadian immigration refused my pleas for asylum but the good people of Mexico have just said "bienvenida compadre", I'm jet lagged but happy for the time being.

    I've been busy in Ireland with Arrested Development season 4, but now I'm in a 30 Rock and a hard place. Mexico has great weather at this time of year. There's probably some stuff worth seeing in Ireland for the moment. Holy Motors, Batman!

    Damsels in Distress on Netflix Ireland. Be warned: its a deeply strange, quirky and uneven film. But director Whit Stillman manges some moments of brilliance, and the whole things is fascinatingly zany. Greta Gerwig is fantastic in it. You might well hate the heck out of it, but its also pretty fascinating.

    Its not a PS3 update problem, its Netflix closing that loophole, from UNOTELLY:

    "Netflix recently updated their back end framework to override third-party DNS servers by what looks like a forced DNS Lookup with Google and other Public DNS Servers. You will get all kinds of errors such as AIP-701, AIP 703, AIP 703. This update breaks SmartDNS support from providers like UnoTelly for Netflix on PS3. . We are currently investigating this issue and looking for a solution."
