    Is there a way of changing the aspect ratio of movies on Netflix. I have Netflix as an app on my tv and it seems to lock out the screen settings on the tv. I was watching news of the world the other night and the black bars destroyed the vistas.

    Are u the one? It all full of Americans so I think that’s why it’s better.
    Ah OK, this is a MTV produced show and they've just added the first two seasons to Netflix this side of the pond.

    I thought there may have been a new Netflix Original release.

    I've not watched it but google tells me it was filmed in 2.39 : 1 which means you would have black bars. That shouldn't ruin vistas as it's the original aspect ratio it was shot in. If your TV auto formatted this to get rid of the black bars by zooming in, cutting off the sides then I can see how that can ruin things.

    Great show, unfortunately got cancelled but the point at which it finishes actually works well enough as an ending even though it wasn't originally meant to be a finale.

    The great thing is that it makes it easy to recommend now, so many shows that get cancelled on a cliff-hanger that make watching them pointless for new viewers.

    For example Netflix have Colony, a decent sci-fi show that was cancelled abruptly with zero resolution to the story....be infuriating for new viewers to discover this.

    There are two seasons available for me to watch on UK Netlfix so I assume it's the same in Ireland.

    MTV have produced 8 seasons of the show already. Not sure if the others will appear on Netflix over time.

    This is a good point. Don't know how many times I've started a series when it suddenly gets cancelled. Makes me think twice on starting a new show and investing time & interest in it. I would often wait so see if a show survives at least two seasons before even considering starting it.

    Yeah I enjoyed it, I'd say it wouldn't entice anyone to live in Iceland!

    So I watched the third episode of the hotel Cecil and that internet crowd can go and **** off. I’m really not going to watch the final episode.

    Slightly OT but anyone know what’s happening with shows that are about to go live on Disney’s star that are already on Netflix. Things like modern family?
