I thought the new app for xbox was supposed to be some new and improved interface, but unless you know exactly what you want to watch, you can’t find anything. I just wanted to browse some movies and tv shows, but they only show like 15% of what is available.

The xbox and Wii interface for netflix isn’t really meant to show everything available. You are supposed to find what you want using the web interface, then add it to instant queue.

The Wii interface just suggests movies that you may like based on your tastes. It works OK, but they just added a search feature so you can add any movie to instant queue…

That is just plain stupid. Sometimes I just want to flick on my tv and browse. The online interface sucks too.
