Werewolf Barmitzvah !

Damn the new Netflix app that MS added to the NXE for 360 !! Good christ, the nerd-dom expressed in the prior sentence....
Anyhoo, I finally started using the handy dandy Netflix streaming app this past weekend. My stream of choice: the tv show 30 Rock. I caught the pilot of this a few years back and didn't think much of it. It came out at the same time as a similarly themed show (anyone remember Studio 60 On the Sunset Strip ? Uggh, yeah me neither). I had written both off as too high concept (SNL style show within a show) and quite frankly not funny enough to carry the weight of the idea for very long. I was on the money on Studio 60 (The New Paris Opera House, are you shitting me ?!?) but 30 Rock seemed to survive. A pretty damn funny promo for the 30 Rock Season 2 DVD on the recent The Office DVD caught my attention, and I tried a random episode from season 2 off the Netflix service this past weekend. Fast forward to Sunday night and I had nearly imbibed the entire run of the show. God love this service. On demand content ! Because we demand it !

interesting blog so far! I'm quite the fan of on demand services myself although 30 Rock is not my cup of tea...
