Activity #88: Netflix it

NetflixAlec and I rejoined Netflix when Holden was teeny so that we could see movies we wanted when we wanted without worrying about late fees or getting out of our pajamas.

We were able to both whittle away our movies-to-see list while also adding to it (how nice is it that they keep track of your list so your baby-addled brain doesn’t have to?).

Watching recent movies will also give you something non-baby to form opinions about and talk about… and that is priceless.

I can also highly recommend watching some addictive television this way. Alec and I have seen Season One of 24, Entourage, Alias, and Lost this way (in a frightfully short amount of time). We’re in the midst of Six Feet Under right now. Just don’t tell me how it ends!

we did the same. we love netflix. we love the netflix has become a verb. to netflix.
“hey, i netflix’d season 2 of veronica mars!” “excellent, let’s not forget to flix lost when it comes out.”

and you’re in for a great ride with 6ft. it’s such a great show and has the best series finale i have ever seen. . . not that my opinion matters. i could be crazy for all you know. . .

My wife and I do the same thing too!
When we see a movie trailer “Is it theater-worthy or Netflix?”

When we had our daughter (and home much more) we would watch about 4-6 movies a week

I like the service because I get tired of paying late fees.
