NetFlix Watch-Instantly

Leighton & Sabine: ****

I had been meaning to try out the NetFlix Watch Instantly program. Considering we get 9 hours a month and I haven't used any of it since they started, I figured I'd better start getting my money's worth. So we tried it out with this very funny BBC comedy. It's basically Sex and the City for late-40s men in Britain. I was interested in it mainly because it stars Anthony Stewart Head who played Giles on Buffy the Vampire Slayer for seven years. The other three main stars are Don Warrington, Nigel Havers, and Ray Burdis. One of the friends is married, two are divorced, and one is happily never married. We watched the first two episodes, and they were very funny.
