- Doctor Who: The Beginning - inexplicably became unavailable at Netflix within a few months of release
- Doctor Who: Season 2: Disc 1 - Netflix's first set of copies were defective. Interestingly, Blockbuster's discs from this set have disc artwork (very pretty! I especially like the K9 one.) where Netflix's are plain gray, marked "for rental only".
- Falling Angels - Canadian film. Film Movement title (Blockbuster exclusive).
- The Fortunes and Misfortunes of Moll Flanders (1996) - Masterpiece Theatre production starring Alex Kingston and Daniel Craig.

- The Rage in Placid Lake - Australian film. Film Movement title (Blockbuster exclusive).
- Some Mothers Do 'Ave Em - Slapstick British TV series starring Michael Crawford
- Stripes [Extended Cut] - From the reviews it sounds like Netflix is sending out a few of these, but perhaps some of the old discs are still in circulation.
- Wilby Wonderful - Canadian film. Film Movement title (Blockbuster exclusive).
