I haven't had Netflix in years. Right now I'm stuck paying for Directv which I no longer want but I pay for because mine is the lone voice. I can't do Netflix on top of that. Previewing it is a good idea though so I will probably Red Box it at some point to see if it's worth buying. Them redoing the FX is pretty much the big reason for my interest.
I watched Dead Zone when it was on, but I'm not familiar with Reaper.
