Reccommend a TV Series that is curently on Netflix Streaming

In Canadialand Netflix is Instant Watch only--you can stream, but you don't have the DVD/Blu-Ray mailed to your house option.

In the US, the streaming comes on it's own for $8, or bundled with a service that physically mails DVDs/blu-rays to you to watch at your leisure, with a free return mailer included. I am on the 1-at-a-time plan, which is $9/mo. others on this thread can have up to three or more discs out at a time.

Second this in the strongest possible terms. Archer is a close second to ATHF in my list of "Greatest Modern Cartoons Evah". Probably not for The Spawn, though.

Ahhh, thanks Jeb.

@Jackwraith I'm using the Wii as well do you have the component cables and if so is it a marked improvement? Maybe it's my internet speed but I'm not crazy about the current picture quality.

Not exactly 'a series', but speaking of MST3K, there are a fair number of old SF & Horror flicks out there on streaming. I've been introducing my son to them on the weekends...

One's I've got in the queue or recently watched (again):
Planet of the Vampires ("Terrore nello spazio" Yea Mario Bava!)
Them!
Dracula
Dr. Phiebes Rises Again
Gojira
Creature from the Black Lagoon
The Wolf Man
It! The Terror from Beyond Space
The Angry Red Planet
Queen of Blood
The Beast with a Million Eyes
The Man from Planet X
Beware! The Blob
The Bride of Frankenstein
Invaders from Mars (53)
Beyond the Time Barrier
Donovan's Brain

It's not everything, or even terribly consistent stuff. But it makes for a decent recreation of the old 'Simon's Sanctorum' experience from when I was a kid.

Older Series, if you haven't watched 'em all before:
Red Dwarf
Lexx

Another Brit:
Wire in the Blood

Are you intentionally trying to make Dr. Mabuse cry, or is it by accident?

LOUIE is super-awesome

and I'm not going to dilute my post by recommending further less-awesome shows.

Good shows on Netflix Streaming:

Dead Like Me. Girl dies, takes work as a Grim Reaper. Kind of like the mega-cynical version of Touched by an Angel. By the same series creator is Pushing Daisies (cute, but gets a little old), and Wonderfalls (which is just brilliant).

Heroes. This was a surprise, and the first season is very good. It grows stale over time, but this is a sort of modern Supers thing that somehow I ended up liking.

Jekyll: 6 episodes, and INCREDIBLY brilliant. A modern take on the classic, but done with such intensity. The same director did Sherlock, which is good--nothing as jaw dropping as James Nesbitt in this, however.

- Homicide: Life On The Street: The best damn crime series I've ever seen, from the creator of The Wire. And yes, I think it's better than The Wire.
- Supernatural: Starts off as a monster-of-the-week ripoff of The X-Files, but gets gradually better, and at about the second season it becomes downright brilliant. Lots of self-referential jokes and WTF episodes.
- Veronica Mars: A fun high-school crime series with the sassiest heroine ever imagined.
- The Black Adder: Mr. Bean goes medieval. Crazy, cynical comedy.

I'm sad to see, that two of my all time favourites are not on Netflix: Relativity (excellent and lovable romantic dramedy, featuring Adam Goldberg) and Hull High (completely surreal high-school comedy/musical).
