STUFFWhile Netflix's New Zealand service has greatly improved since its debut in 2015, there are still frequent complaints about shows and movies we're missing out on that are available to US subscribers. Some of that is down to complicated global rights deals and ownership of certain titles by other services or broadcasters (TVNZ for instance is the home of Friends), but there are a few whose absence aren't immediately obvious. After comparing the current line-ups, has singled out 10 Netflix US viewing options we'd love to see here asap, especially given the latest news that they're hiking prices by up to 19 per cent. READ MORE: * Netflix NZ subscriptions rise in price by up to 19 per cent * Why Netflix is finally giving Kiwis the service they deserve * How does New Zealand Netflix compare to other countries? * Love a Netflix show? Why you shouldn't wait too long to watch * TVNZ says Kiwis are treating Netflix like a pet, but they're not getting much in return TWIN PEAKS The show that helped launch TV3 in New Zealand, David Lynch's wild and wacky 1990 drama entranced and confused audiences in equal measure. A crime drama like no other, it saw FBI Agent Dale Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan) attempting to solve the murder of Laura Palmer. But while American Netflix subscribers can binge-watch to their heart's content, Kiwis currently have to take their chances on finding a DVD or Blu-Ray boxset. FRASIER While there's been a lot of angst about the absence of another 90s sitcom beginning with F on our service, the bigger crime is that it's almost impossible to watch any of the 11 seasons of this erudite comedy on our shores. A Cheers spin-off that actually surpassed its predecessor the misadventures of a Seattle radio psychiatrist, his sensitive younger brother and his former policeman father feature some of the funniest writing ever to grace US prime-time. DAD'S ARMY Who do you think you are kidding Mr Hastings? While Americans can watch as much of this classic 1970s sitcom as their heart desires, New Zealanders can only watch the occasional episode via Sky TV's Jones! Channel. Netflix has slowly been improving our access to their Brit comedy back catalogue, but this is definitely a glaring omission at this point. DANGER MOUSE He's the greatest, he's fantastic, wherever there is a trouble, he'll be there – except not in New Zealand (unless you're a fan of the admittedly pretty reasonable remake). Yes, Kiwi Generation Xers will have to find alternative ways to introduce their offspring to this brilliant staple of 1980s kids' TV. David Jason provided the vocals for our eye-patched rodent hero in this hilarious animated spoof of James Bond and other British spy stories. EXTRAS While many prefer Ricky Gervais' debut sitcom The Office, this series set in the entertainment industry is truly his finest work. Featuring memorable cameos from everyone from Daniel Radcliffe to Patrick Stewart, David Bowie and Kate Winslet, it focuses on the misadventures of Gerva
