    Every week, just at the start of the weekend, we catch up with the WoW Insider staff and ask them, "What are you playing this week?" -- otherwise known as: WRUP. Join us to see what we're up to in and out of game, and catch us in the comments to let us know what you're playing, too! I love Canadians. I don't know what it is, but there's something very appealing about having a culture so similar to that of the United States but so different at the same time. I mean, do you know what they do to french fries up there? They put gravy on them. Madness. Of course, I learned everything I know about Canada from one place: the early 1990s comedy series Kids in the Hall. It was so delightfully absurd and yet so delightfully Canadian. The sketch above with Bruce McCulloch (as Tammy) is one of my all-time favorites. Not the all-time favorite -- but one of them. Anyway, that's what's been amusing me for the last few weeks -- watching Kids in the Hall on Netflix. I know what'll amuse you, though: a hearty round of What aRe yoU Playing! So let's mosey on past the break and all share our lives with complete strangers, shall we?

    Forget any press conference shenanigans, the real problem for many Canadian subscribers to Netflix Watch Instantly since its launch has been a lack of content, a problem that should be eased slightly by today's news it has reached a licensing deal with CBC and FremantleMedia Enterprises, and extended existing deals with New Video, Maple and Sony. That means there's lots of new content available now and arriving soon on the service, consisting of TV shows like The Tudors, Saturday Night Live, Weeds and The Kids in the Hall, check the press release after the break for more details.
