** Now in the UK too, although the selection is not as great as in the US. The UK also has [[Love Film]] Instant, a service run by Amazon, although the DVD rental selection is better than that available for streaming.
** Netflix isn't all roses though. In "[http://www.cracked.com/blog/4-ways-binge-watching-will-ruin-television/ 4 Reasons 'Hemlock Grove' Is Television's Shitty Future]", [[Cracked.com|J. F. Sargent]] accuses Netflix and other Archive Binge outlets of encouraging TV writers to drop substance in favor of shallow entertainment with lame [[cliffhanger]] gags to addict viewers into watching one more episode. And there's no threat of mid-season cancellation to keep showrunners honest. ''[[Hemlock Grove]]'' is guilty.
* ''[[Farscape]]'' and other hyper-linear series are written in such a fashion that each episode builds and relies so much upon the events of previous episodes that missing even one can create a comprehension gap in the current goings on. ''Farscape'' is a perfect example of this as major story arcs in the last seasons come full circle and build upon references and character interactions made in the 1st and second seasons.
