After subscribing to unblock- us now there is so much i want to watch and think it would be really useful to have a save for later or wishlist option.I use my xbox360 so don't know if these options exist on other devices?
Would anybody else like to see this on Netflix?

[Phyllis Stein]

Yes, I've thought the same thing myself - it would make it much easier to keep track of everything you want to watch.

The only Netflix catalogue who offers an instant queue is the US catalogue.

Cheers!

Annoying isn't it? Netflix seem to have a habit of removing features people want and introducing features no one asks for.

You can complain and add your wish for the instant queue to be added to UK accounts on the official Netflix UK get satisfaction community

I get around it by bookmarking anything I come across that I want to watch. It's not ideal but at least you don't forget about it.

I'm not trying to be smart with my answer it's just what i use. A pen and paper write down what you would like to watch when you see it.

I attended a focus group a couple of months ago where they were showing a queue feature on the PS3 so it may be coming.

I only do a slightly more modern version of that, I keep a text file on my tablet with a list of titles I want to watch. It still means you have to manually search Netflix for the title you want to view.

That sounds promising, was a permanent queue though?
I know at some point Netflix were trialing some stupid idea they called a pin menu where you could pin a title to a list to watch later. The trouble was it was session based, which meant if you didn't watch a pinned title within a limited time the title would get automatically deleted from your list. I just hope the preview you saw in that focus group wasn't that.

Seasons 4,5 and 6 of Dexter would be much appreciated, as well as a few more newer films for those of us who have the dvds or seen the good films already.

Breaking Bad (as already mentioned) is superb, and I've just started watching Californication which is quite good so far.

On the queue issue; I sometimes play a minute or 2 of something I want to watch so it ends up on my seen list at the top of my NF page.

i tried it for a month
my wish is to have good movies...i was able to loggin to U.S.A Netflix and it was 1000% beter
thank the U.K just they are giving us.

People who own an AppleTV can add contents in queue (that will be only available on the ATV), the thing is, most of the time you can't remove the content from the queue. But at least it works to "bookmark" stuff you wanna watch.
I use that method when I wanna keep some titles from the Canadian catalogue.

Just to be clear; there are many great films on the UK site, the only problem I have is, I like many others, have seen most of them before.

[suffolkblue]

Yes I prefer classic or slightly older films so netflix is ok for me. Also would love to see airwolf as I am loving classic Knight Rider but I hope they add the other 2 seasons of it.

[Brolac]

Don't you have a DVD collection for your favourites suffolkblue?

Californication is not 5.1 audio as advertised, something that matters a little for those with a AV amp.

[suffolkblue]

No I don't sadly but might get some in time.

The group focused on a few of things. One was the name, another other was the size and length of time the queue was held and the interaction with the recently watched list. The idea of titles dropping off after a period of time was not well received.

Thanks for that info, that sounds just like the pin menu idea a Netflix staff member was boasting about, and I'm glad the idea of titles only being pinned or queued for limited time went down badly!
I really don't know why Netflix don't just give us the instant queue US customers enjoy. Their excuse is that US users get an instant queue which they can add up to 500 titles and the queues get filled up with titles a user never will get round to watching and fill their queue up with so many titles they can't find things they saved. Netflix don't want the same thing to happen with non-US users so they removed the feature all together. My arguement has always been rather than deprive non-US customers of an instant queue, why don't they just reduce the queue size down to a manageable level?, something like a queue limited to 100 or 75 titles.
