What are you watching on Netflix/Amazon Prime

Malcolm in the Middle is on Amazon Prime.  It's always nice to know that there's some family out there that's more dysfunctional than your own. 

We loved watching The Black Adder.  I love me some Rowan Atkinson.

The IT Crowd is hysterical.  The hubby loves it as it's right up his alley.

We are subscribed on Hulu Plus to Whitney.  It's pretty good and always makes me laugh.

We're also subscribed to Last Man Standing.  Fantastic!  Reminds me a lot of the good old days watching Tim Allen on Home Improvement.  I miss those good clean funny shows.

nuttygirl, i've heard great things about dr. who, but since it's been running for like 40 years, it seems kind of overwhelming and i just don't know where to start.  should i just start at the beginning?

Katie, Big Bang Theory isn't on there....I so want it to be!

Oh yeah, I watched all of How I Met Your Mother.  Love it!  I'm up to the current episode, but CBS only releases one episode at a time.  I wish they were like NBC who has the entire current season to view.  Now, I have to wait for Netflix or something to start at the beginning.

Being Human - US version.  (Does the UK version differ much I wonder?  Maybe I'll try it too )

DH and I are watching Psych right now.  It's a clever show.  I watched the first couple of episodes of Friday Night Lights the other day, but I'm not sure if I will be able to really get into it.  I spend so little time on the computer anymore, so I'm rather choosy about the time I do spend.  I do enjoy some of the British stuff, too.

my dh LOOOOOVES walking dead.  he is all about zombie survivalism and preparedness though, so take that for what it's worth

Apparently I am too.  Who knew?  Actually I tend to go for the, "what would happen if there was a huge catastrophy?"

right now on ugly betty. have rosanne in the q too, ariana.

My dh likes walking dead too! and he also watches grimm.

Nuttygirl wrote: Switched at Birth is a really good show.  Slightly teen soap ish (it is on abc family) but is well acted and is a great depiction of deaf culture and hearing and the issues that arise in friendships and relationships between the two.  The main boy deaf actor is amazing (and he really is deaf).  I love this show and am not even embarrassed to say it which is unusual for an abc family show.  There are ten episodes available on netflix right now and you can catch up with the current season on abc family and the most recent episode on hulu.

I've been watching this too!  It's actually far better than I initially though it would be.  So interesting to get a glimpse into deaf culture.  It certainly makes you realize how many things a normal hearing person takes for granted.

I have watched some switched at birth too- my dh actually walked into it a few times and said that he really likes that ABC did a show like that. 

Me:
Downton Abbey...omg, obsessed! I finished the season in 2 afternoons lol

DH:
24, only on season 2, and I think he's already getting tired of it.

Both:
Breaking Bad, just finished season 1, and it is great.
The Office UK, basically the US one uses the same skits, so it is boring
Louie, funny, especially the jokes about parenting, but probably not for everyone's taste here
Archer, Portlandia, and Weeds are in our queue but haven't started yet

ETA:
We've completed some great shows that I would recommend checking out.
The Tudors
Battlestar Galactica (the newer one, and we have the prequel, Caprica, in the queue)
Rome

We don't have regular TV so we watch a LOT of netflix.
