    "Scorpion" (2014) US TV series.

    Unwatchable tripe about 4 computer geeks who are taken on by Homeland Security to fight terrorism using their laptops and superior intelligence. It's rare that I give up on a series after one episode but this is one of them. Watch the trailer below and you'll see what I mean. 0/10

    I only watch Netflix on my iPhone or through chromecast, so as far as I'm aware, I can't change regions?

    You are so wrong sir, best value in the history of filmed content, Not enough time in the day to watch all the excellent documentaries, films and TV shows on Netflix worldwide.

    Agree, only one nit pick from me is their foreign movie collection is quite disappointing would like to see them approve on that. They have some wonderful films but just not enough. Like to see them add a few more monthly.

    The premise is actually good but the execution is terrible. It's far too bright and cheery and there are too many geeky romances. If it was darkened down with the lead character being taken advantage of by homeland swcurity I could see it being much more watchable, that's not the case and it's difficult to argue with your rating.

    The man it's based on (Walter obrien) was born in Wexford. It's debatable whether he did any of the stuff he claimed to do like hacking NASA aged 13 or working for the government. Any time he's asked about it he routinely says "I can't get into it due to confidentiality" which may be true but makes me think he's a bull****er who's found a very good way to market his computer security company, funny enough also called Scorpion!

    Star Wars Episode IV added to Netflix Brazil.

    None of the others have been added yet.

    This is the first time any of the Star Wars films have been on any of the Netflix regions.

    Edit. Han fires second version.

    it will probably be added to different regions in the next few days to get people (more) ready for the force awakens as sky have been running ads for the Uk and ireland that they are going to show them all in the run up

    Gave a little film called People Places Things a look on the us site and really enjoyed it, mainly because Jermaine Clement was the lead in it. It was very light viewing and unlikely to make you question your existence or anything but funny and poignant all the same

    Apparently Disney are restoring the original Trilogy as they were before Lucas added the appalling CG stuff to them in the 90s, ie as they appeared in the cinema in the 70s and 80s.

    The two Bill Burr specials are brilliant. Demetri Martin's special is good and if you haven't seen the Louis CK one you're really missing out. Dave Atell and Mike Birbiglia are worth checking out as well.

    His first two albums are also on Spotify, both of which are very good (although I think hes a really love him or hate him type comedian).

    Mike Birbiglias My Girlfriends Boyfriend was very funny too, well worth a watch.
