If there's ever an extremely popular show or movie on Netflix and you are having trouble accessing, know this: So is everyone else. If Netflix is down for everyone, the site will let you know. It's probably not that great but who knows? Maybe Brad Pitt will make it all work. It is worth checking though if you are hankering to watch that brand new pulp thriller that just came out starring a famous actor.

Frankly, it's almost always green for all systems go. So we gave you one pro tip, here's an even better one: There's a website you can check that shows whether Netflix is up and running. So sometimes the problem is with the actual streaming media provider and not just one of the error messages below. The same thing happens with major platforms and apps like Gmail and Facebook. If you search Google for "Netflix down" you will almost always see reports from websites explaining what is happening and why there is a Netflix server problem for everyone. Netflix very rarely goes down completely, as in-everyone is having problems accessing it.
