Catching up on some Netflix

Whoo! The last few weeks have felt longer than normal. There has been so much going on, between working on my jokumentary, the documentary on Judy and Pam Jenkins and I think we can agree it has produced a big load of videos. There is just a lot of entertainment in there. Sometimes you just go and go and when you look back at the things you have made you start to just realize how much of that you have made.

So I have been sitting back, playing the PS2 for the first time in a while, and taking a step back generally. I don't know if I have ever told you I have one of those really neat Nintendo Wii video game consoles that was the rage about two years ago, and it has the ability to watch movies on this "app" called Netflix (which if you have never seen it, you should really try. the name comes from "internet flicks." flicks are just another slang word for movies). There is a bunch of really great stuff on there. I watched a bunch of episodes of this show called "Ted Talks" and after some of those were boring and a bit over my head, i started watching some family guy and classics like goosebumps.

I know that some shows on Netflix originated on TV from the 1990's. I also thing they have a lot of original shows, one called House of Cards that I haven't watched because it looks kind of creepy from the bloody hand on the series icon. I put on one of my to-do lists to contact Netflix about doing an original show for them. A variety show for the new generation, with a bunch of different segments. You could even imagine my two recent projects fitting right in with some other things on there. But obviously it would cost hundreds of dollars to do the show right, so I may wait to contact them after I raise some money.

Are there places to raise that kind of money online? Have you seen any other great Netflix shows (if you have heard of it).
