    How is it really a plus though? People here use Netflix Ireland not Netflix UK so we could still find ourselves without episodes.

    Netflix UK and Ireland are the same thing, we share the same content.

    Really? I thought we had even less than them. Just signed up today and there's not a huge amount there...

    Nope, it's exactly the same. I look at Netflix as a content discovery platform rather then something I go to when looking to find a particular film or TV show and I get a good bit of mileage out of it. The annoying thing about it though is that much of the content is hidden so to speak and the only way of finding it is to search for it, which defeats the point if you don't know what to watch. There's a website which lists everything on the UK Netflix as well as what's new and what's expiring soon but I don't know it off hand (it's www.instantwatcher.com for US and Canada).

    Admittedly there is a far better and larger selection on the US version and there's usually something to watch at any given time so I'd recommend gaining access to the US catalogue (talk of how to do that is a no-no around here nowadays but it's pretty simple). I usually jump between the two of them as certain content will be on one but not the other.

    Yep, should be.

    Have used my trial up long ago but will re-subscribe for the month for this alone!

    Netflix would be a smart target for hackers looking for credit card details over the few days from the new season's release. :pac:

    I'm holding off starting to re-watch it for the 700th time until closer to season 4 so I can just jump straight into it with no gap.

    I really really really hope the quality will be up to the same standard as the previous ones and thats a high standard.
    I usually never let myself get too hyped over films and stuff cause you're nearly always set for a fall but I am for this

    LOL!....already cancelled before it begins, Netflix have confirmed its one season and done....they are using the show as a gimmick, a tactic to get attention for its other original scripted shows.

    It's not been cancelled but rather given the high profile of the cast its a nightmare to get them all together at the same time which is why many of upcoming episodes will not feature the entire cast. Mitch Hurwitz has said from the start that anything more than one season was unlikely to happen and is why a film was proposed instead of a second season on Netflix. The upcoming series will be the first act with the film covering act 2 and 3.

    Richard, you couldn't be more wrong!

    It took the guts of 6 years to get the cast back together - and the likes of Jason Bateman and Michael Cera have thriving movies careers.

    This is simply to close off the series and satisfy fans!

    And it hasn't been "cancelled" because no more than one season on Netflix was ever ordered or planned.

    Oh dear this is rather embarrassing.....

    As has been pointed out, 'cancelling' and 'finishing' are two different things.

    Hmmm honest mistake by Richard, or a needless trolling gloat? Past form doesn't look good, but it's been clear from the outset that this series was going to be a once-off, a reunion of the cast that for the longest while seemed highly unlikely.

    Maybe if you spent less time compiling statistics and gloating about cancellations, and more time actually watching the TV shows themselves you might be more informed Richard :)

    For their recent House of Cards remake, netflix limited the "free month trialists" to just the first two episodes. I expect they'll do something similar for all their original content.
