Ronnie.. I have a PS3 in the basement.. thanks for the info... you have just convinced me to join! I'm still keeping my purchase of the "Amazing Stories" DVD since it was so cheap, but the future looks Netflix bright.

I'm going to try and watch a bunch of these this weekend!
Valley, you are going to love the Instant Watch feature of Netflix. It's like a gigantic version of cable On Demand for a much, much cheaper price (I have the $8.99/month subscription). Make sure you request the instant streaming disc for the Wii on Netflix if you haven't already done that.

my tech question is? if you stream it through a game console do you have to have a Internet router? I have DSL?

Muffy, yes you will need to have a wireless router installed in your home. I bought one for like $30 at Target.

Anybody watch any? I'm dying here I'm gonna try and finish up Season 2.....gotta admit a few of Season 2 are actually not as good....Moving Day with Stephen Jeffreys is a cool idea but sorta boring.

That's awesome Valley! There's so many movies and shows to choose from...you're going to find yourself browsing through them all for hours.
I watched the 1st two episodes of season 1. Liked them both a lot...The second episode was hilarious! I loved the nerdy girl! She looked really familiar to me.

Alamo Jobe had an interesting time warp story and starred Kelly "The Black Stallion" Reno. He only acted in three movies plus this Amazing Stories episode and after you read his bio, you know the reason why.
Mummy Daddy was a very funny episode with a strong cast. Tom Harrison was great as the Mummy, you really care what´s going to happen to him. And you haven´t even seen the real guy under the mummy costume
Supporting actors like Bronson Pinchot, Brion James and Tracey Walter always deliver. Walter´s character had a cool trailer with movie posters on the wall.
to be continued...

this is among the top on my "Must Have" list. In that I mean I Must Have every season. My friend was kind enough to buy me the 1st season for my BDay...but i'm definitely getting the rest.

It was a cool Spielberg penned war story with an all-star cast. Starring Kevin Costner, Casey Siemaszko, Kiefer Sutherland and some other familiar faces. The lovely Karen Kopins also has some screentime.
This was a longer (45 minutes) episode. Poor little Casey is in trouble again

"The Amazing Falsworth" with Gregory Hines and Richard Masur.
A serial killer story, the two on screen murders must have been pretty shocking back in the day. Decent acting, yammy Kiss Kiss -bar neon lights, "it´s all in the hands".
"Fine Tuning"
Great to see Matthew Laborteaux and Gary Riley. The beginning was good but it turned out to be a very silly episode. Stupid aliens
"Mr. Magic"
Old magician who has lost his act gets one final chance to be hip and cool. Nice little story starring Sid Caesar and Leo Rossi.

Guilt takes a vacation, meets Love and they fall in love. Directed by Burt Reynolds and starring funny guys Dom DeLuise and Charles Durning and lovely Loni Anderson. Nice little idea but wasn´t that special after all.
"Remote Control Man"
Now this was a crazy story. Directed by Bob "Porky´s" Clark and Starring Sydney Lassick, Nancy Parsons, Jeff Cohen, Dirk Benedict, Gary Coleman and other 80s tv-stars. Even KITT crashes in! Surprisingly wicked stuff!
