The latest as well? Last time I checked they didn't have the season with the naggers episode. They're all available on an official site though.

Unfortunately I have to actually rent the South Park DVDs. Trey and Matt do mini commentaries at the beginning of each episode for a few minutes, and I love listening to them.

I don't know about netflix, but you can watch just about every South Park episode there is on Southparkstudios.com

You can watch the latest one and all of the old ones. After the next episode comes out, the previous one is unavailable for a couple of weeks, but after that time they put it back up.

aorn I think all but 1 episode are available.

and I know I've seen the naggers episode on there a couple of times.

You are not able to browse movies that aren't in your watch instantly queue but that isn't that big of a deal since it; easy to add them. The wait times are very fast with no hiccups in playback that I've experienced.
Wow, you need a disc to access your instant queue on the PS3? Glad I have a 360.

just bumping to say that a bunch of Kurosawa movies have been added to watch instantly and Au revoir les enfants (Goodbye, Children ) by Malle is also a really, really good movie on watch instantly.

Yeah, watching Jericho really pissed me off with Netflix instant.

Some episodes on my PS3 were randomly silent and I had to watch on my laptop, and now they're no longer available. This sucks cause I have shows I'm watching on disc with my girlfriend, but was watching Jericho on instant when she wasn't around.

Sigh.

All five released seasons of Lost are online for those like me that never jumped on the wagon. I'm four or five episodes into season 2. I know this isn't a review thread, but I don't get it yet, to be honest. I don't like shows where I know the only reason I'm watching is to find out what happens.

Season 2 will destroy you. It's the only season I saw, and apparently it's the worst of the bunch. It's so damn bad I felt like a crack head recognizing the toll this poison was taking on my body but going back for more because I just needed to know WTF was going on.

Take solace in that they are ending it at season 6, so they'll supposedly give all the answers the fans want. Also, season 3 and 4 and 5 are said to be significantly better than 2.
