Holy crap, all of Top Gear UK is on that list (minus season 1 - which didn't have James May - and season 16, which just aired on BBC/BBCA).

Also looks like a number of James Bond films will start streaming tomorrow.

Melrose Place is all 7 seasons that aired on FOX plus the CW update from 2 seasons ago.

If I have time, I will try to watch Numb3rs. Never got into it on CBS and it seems like a fun procedural. Might make some decent summer viewing. Hopefully CBS/Netflix will post all the Star Trek incarnations. Would like to watch DS9, Enterprise and Voyager.

Cool, there are a few that I am interested in.

Mainly Young Indy, but I would like to check out Jericho.

Season 1 of TOS was on there briefly a year or two ago.

Really looking forward to being able to finally watch season 5-7 of "Melrose Pace" - the DVDs just come out too slowly.

Hopefully one day we will see the original 90210 and "Dynasty".

No must-watches for me as the shows I like I already own at least a significant amount of. Good to have more options, though.

Netflix is also adding a bunch of FOX shows (some have already been there before)

including......The Wonder Years!! Not a DVD release, but I will take it. Would love to re-visit the show.

Now Wonder Years excites me. I love having it on Hub but I want to watch them in order.

That would be big. Haven't there been music-rights issues?

Yes and if SNL is any indication (and it is admittedly controlled by an entirely different studio) they'll take a chainsaw to the episodes and cut any scene that even has a hint of copyrighted music in it as opposed to actually trying to clear each and every song.

Really can't wait for Trek. Voyager is the only series I didn't want to purchase and would like to give it another try.

They should've put on Supertrain for April Fool's Day. I'd watch it...

I thought the idea of streaming was to make the back catalog available. Does that mean they don't think The Wonder Years would sell, making me further speculate that it'd be in a WKRP-like form (just to use another Fox title)?

I love a lot of these shows. I'm probably going to stream the Adventures of Young Indiana Jones first because I loved that show as a kid and the last time I saw it was back in the mid 90's when the Family Channel used to air reruns.

It's not letting me view Twin Peaks on my blu-ray player. I added it to my queue and it shows up on my queue. When I click on the Twin Peaks icon, instead of the usual episode icons, I get a bunch of "disc only" icons. I can watch it on my computer.
