Why are episodes on Netflix for tv shows missing?

So I wanted to watch certain episodes of Dirty Jobs on Netflix but find that many of the episodes are missing? Why can't they upload the all the episodes? I usually watch from my ps3 or iphone if that matters.

Could be copyright issues, The shows could have copyrighted material that requires consent of the copyright owner to be on netflix. And that can be costly

Saturday Night Live's netflix episodes have the music acts removed for copyright problems

  • Why is Netflix not loading on my iPhone? I'm trying to watch Doctor Who which is about 45 minutes per episode but when I try to watch it the video doesn't even load and I get an error message. I'm using T-mobile 3G on an iPhone 4 because our internet went down. Can I watch Netflix at all or do I just have to watch shorter videos? I'm getting around 2-3 bars right now if that makes a difference.
