+1 Netflix not integrating with Apple TV is a pain for me also - for everything else, I often search on Apple TV.

That's huge pain. I love my Apple TV and I'm much more likely to cancel netflix than not use the ATV. I also really love the TV app and Watch next, for apps that work with it it's such a great UI IMO.
I like up next/ watch now on Apple TV
However it is irritating that shows I’ve purchased from the iTunes Store occasionally lose their blessed status§ and I can neither put them in up next nor even have the show’s page open to the episode I last watched. Unless I binge the whole show in one sitting I’m gonna be scrolling horizontally past a lot of episodes every time I sit down to watch.
§ my hypothesis is that it is when the package I bought them in gets taken off iTunes (e.g. I got the complete Downton Abbey, but for a few weeks they were doing a every episode and the movie package and you couldn’t buy just all the seasons together, that one even lost its blessed status while I was watching the show, which was a mystifying experience)
It feels like they're making decisions to suit themselves rather than me and it winds me up considering they are the more expensive subscription.
