Here's my problem: I'm only gonna use Netflix for this one month (before I go back to school). There are so many shows where I want to watch episode by episode, but I wouldn't be able to with my limit. So, I ask your assistance in picking the best from each shows.


Here is the list of shows I'm interested in:

-It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia
-The Office (U.S. but will accept U.K.)
-Parks and Recreation
-30 Rock
-Spaced
-Supernatural
-Any Saturday Night Live episode on Netflix
-Arrested Development
-Heroes

Watch the first few episodes of breaking bad and see how you like it. Personally it think it is a great show.

I'm currently in Season 2, but I don't wanna just watch that only.

Again, in season 2.

But lately I'm in a mood for comedy shows (although some that I listed aren't).

sherlock is pretty good and only has 6 90-minute episodes.

twin peaks' first season 7(?)-episode is pretty great, if you can handle a cliffhanger (don't worry, even the series finale was a cliffhanger).

firefly/serenity is short and sweet if you haven't seen it already.

everything else i can think of either has more than ~30 hour-long episodes or is a movie. if you're into sampling shows, i recommend breaking bad and maybe farscape.

I broke one of the cords for my X11s because I couldn't get past the final American course in Doritos Crash Course.

Your lack of Breaking Bad is disturbing. edit: Ill allow it, season 2 is one of the best.

All episodes of Arrested Development are awesome - pick any.

I guess it was just a phase. I can't put myself to watch the new episodes. I guess it was me loving all of them funny MLP flash spoofs and pictures that got me confused. The show is nice and all, but I'm not interested in watching it ever again.

I would have also suggested star gate but recently netflix stopeed offering them. Star trek is also a good choice, along with firefly.

which episodes, though? they almost all run together, and the only self-contained ones i can think of are pretty awful. i guess the 3-episode gaeta arc in season 4 was pretty fantastic and self-contained, but it's not really a jumping-in point.


edit: oh wait, yeah, the miniseries & 33 minutes. nvm.

What house has a rocket pod, has legs, and has a long narrow barrel that probably shoots something powerful?

Sounds like you're describing the lower half of my body, actually.

Wow none of these are good. OP you should go to the anime section and watch Phantom Requiem for the Phantom, Angel Beats or/and Birdy the Mighty.

Yeah, I'm trying to choose shows that don't tie in episode to episode.

Firefly then would be a good choice, for the most part it is self contained and well there is only 14 episodes of it.

edit: this post proves to me i need to go to bed i typed it in the wrong spot epic fail.

You could probably skip the first season since they'll recap what happened at the start of season 2. It's all awesome though.

Wait, why? Watch sitcoms if you're not interested in story arcs. HIMYM, Always Sunny, etc.
