Netflix is offering up slim pickings this week, but what they do have at least looks interesting. My inner hipster rejoices at The Decemberists: A Practical Handbook, which has a full-length live concert and a bunch of music videos. Any outward hipsters might also enjoy Portlandia. There’s Fawlty Towers, which I haven’t really gotten into but I hear is great. David Cross is awesome, so The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret looks like it’s worth a shot.
We also have No Strings Attached, which I guess is like Friends With Benefits but you get to see more of Natalie Portman and less Justin Timberlake. I’d rather see a movie with Justin Timberlake and Natalie Portman. Does anyone find Ashton Kutcher dreamy?
There’s a Nickelodeon show called House of Anubis that looks like Harry Potter with Egyptian mythos. Hit the jump for Egyptian-themed spells!
