Why isn't "The Outer Limits" available on NetFlix?

Caveat: I don't want any serious answers about licensing or copyright--I want angry, hair-on-fire responses as befit my own irritation on the subject.

1. Because FUCKING HULU disenfranchised Netflix users

by making a PRIVATE BACKROOM DEAL with Big Programming and the usual suspects from the Syndication Syndicate to thwart democracy. CAN I VOTE FIRST?!

But yeah, it's on Hulu. Along with almost 900 Criterion Collection films, so totally worth the eight bucks a month.

2. Thanks, but I hate the Hulu interface

I used to think that nothing could be worse than the NetFlix search feature, but then I tried Hulu.

Stinks about The Outer Limts though. Thanks for the info.

3. It's the absolute worst.

Like, inexplicably bad. Charter Cable DVR bad.

The ios app is better than the Roku app, so I do all my searching and queuing on the iPad. Even then it's irritating, but it beats paying four bucks a shot for samurai movies on Amazon.
