Has anyone else noticed how much is censored or edited out of the things shown on netflix? I thought i'd watch all of breaking bad again and I switched it off half way through the first episode because they've butchered it THAT much. It was originally perfect, no need to **** around with it. Why are we not allowed to watch 18 cert things? =/

Weird.. Netflix here comes warts and all. No censoring whatsoever.

Soem things are uncensored which is hat's weird, they do have 12/15/18 stuff on there. AFAIK breaking bad was originally an 18, its now listed as a G, and I can certainly tell that they've chopped stuff real bad, detrimentally so, and I cannot believe they are allowed to butcher something that bad!

It's true, i'm sure it's still alright, I just started watching it (for the third time!) with the girl and turned it off known what i'm missing. Back to downloading it "illegally" again
They are censoring the oddest of things though. I would LOVE to know what the discussions where whilst they went through chopping random parts out. I wouldn't even mind so much if it was written/directed/shot with that in mind, but it clearly wasn't. As long as whoever is writing and directing is aware they will have their work shredded at a later date to bring it in line with a "G" rating i'm sure that would be better |

Don't get me wrong I'd rather watch it as it was intended, but still enjoying it. thought it was weird when they had the strip club scene the other day and all the girls had the nipples covered. Made some of the 'still photos' look a bit odd!

I'm hearing that the XBox / PS3 dns hack isn't working anymore. You'll have to sign up with Unblock-Us and change your dns on your router.
I haven't had a chance to check.

Thing is, everyone's talking about it publicly, so it was only a matter of time.
Not sure why it would be but realised this morning that we were watching the US content and Breaking Bad along with several other shows is heavily censored

Hard for people not to really. It's a great little trick to get oodles of content.
I am surprised that Unblock-Us even allowed it in the first place.
