My apologies.

A number of movies-to-see-or-die are no longer available to watch instantly.

Sometimes Netflix lets you know when they're going to take a movie or TV show off of instant and sometimes they surprise you.

The following are no longer available to watch instantly:

#45: Dog Bites Man
#41: The Sweet Hereafter
#27: Mon Oncle
#22: Dogtown and Z-Boys
#3: Stella

Some of those will be back shortly and others... I have no idea.

I'll keep you updated.
 

#56: Cool as Ice

starring Vanilla Ice.

Self-explanatory.

*features some great cinematography by Janusz Kaminski though.

Today is So Bad It's Good Saturday!

#52: This American Life

created by Ira Glass.

The radio program is a national treasure,
but that doesn't mean the TV show is
chopped liver.
