After reading this article and hearing all the praise for SOA, I decided to give it a look-see. Pretty good story so far. Glad to see Netflix is finally streaming more watch-worthy movies/series.
Adding "The Wonder Years" could present an interesting legal case. For years, the series could not be put on DVD because it used many classical rock songs for which the rights only included original showing, repeats, and syndication. At that time DVDs had not been invented and VCR tapes of series were apparently not that popular so those rights weren't included. As a result, it was thought to be impossible to ever release the series with the original soundtrack (there were pirated disks released).
Now Netflix will apparently be streaming "The Wonder Years". I wonder how the streaming rights issue will be resolved. I checked Netflix today, and the series is listed under future DVD release, and not under streaming.
