- Okay, I'm gonna test them,
'cause one thing I remembered when I was checking this out
was they didn't have a lot of old stuff.
Okay, so they've got Twilight Zone, so I'd be happy.
- Twilight Zone.
That's truly amazing.
- Okay, Bruce Lee movie.
Game of Death is good.
- So you never have to be bored again.
- The other people don't mind waiting?
Now I know why it took me so long to get in here.
(chuckling) I'm watching a movie!
(Finebros snicker) Did you just take it off? You did!
(movie reel clicks)
- (Finebros) What do you know about Netflix?
- I know that we have Netflix.
- It's a resource for movies and entertainment.
- They're supposed to have the best shows around.
- The old TV shows that I was able to find, international movies.
- Guys, I really don't. I know it's--
We got a new TV, and it says "Netflix" on it somewhere
on the remote, and I've yet to experiment quite that far.
- (Finebros) And what are your thoughts that,
here is a company that is exclusively online
and is now making some of the most acclaimed shows
in all of entertainment? - Yeah. It's great.
- People like me, we're not gonna continue
to pay for channels we don't want to watch.
And Netflix really has the right idea.
- We don't actually sit down and watch television.
My kids, they never sit down and watch television shows
unless I make them watch something with me.
- If Netflix-- I don't know that they do news.
But if they started doing news that was reliable,
you probably could get rid of TV.
- Well, it's interesting, 'cause I try to explain to my friends
that kids watch YouTube, watch Internet.
And thanks to you, I know about it. (chuckling)
Otherwise, I'd be stupid as most of my friends, who say, "What?"
- (Finebros) Netflix also has a resurgence
in bringing back classic shows
or saving shows from cancellation,
'cause it can rely on subscription numbers
to make shows for a specific fanbase versus just the masses.
- Oh really?
- As long as they have the technology to put up so much content,
why wouldn't they?
- I love that, because especially they're appealing to me
and my kind of people that like the more offbeat,
maybe unique series that aren't-- no offense--
the stupid sitcoms, these moronic, stupid sitcoms
that I don't even watch. They come and go.
So I love the fact they have--
they can bring back, like Arrested Development.
- (Finebros) So now that there's access to so much content now--
and exclusive, premium content even on Netflix--
do you think the future of traditional television is in trouble?
- I don't know that it's in trouble,
but it's certainly getting confusing.
- (while laughing) It has been for many years,
as far as I'm concerned.
- Yep. Technology is just going...
"expedentially," multiplying.
- Well, I don't know that it's in trouble.
But I think you're gonna find it to be less prevalent.
- It might be, yeah, 'cause it's got so much competition now.
So that's good, if they could eliminate cable,
'cause they're so ridiculously priced.
(chuckling) And they're always going off,
and you have to call them all the time.
- (Finebros) So now that you've experienced
a little bit of Netflix and learned more about it,
what do you think of it now?
- I think I'm gonna get it.
- I will probably leave here and go to Costco or somewhere
and shop TVs just to see how much they are,
because this is just what I want.
My TV's still like this. It's still-- I mean, the depth of it.
It weighs like 70 pounds, 'cause I tried to move it
to do cable things and all-- oh, it's old.
It's old. It's time to upgrade.
