Netflix on the tv

Morning,
I am leaving virgin tv in October and would like to get Netflix on my tv.
Does anyone know of any ways to have this on the tv other than feeding it through a games console????

So confused.....

Thanks

    PC or Mac, a wide range of STB's offer it, or if you have TiVo then a new app is to appear shortly that will allow you to access the service over your BB connection.

    A 'smart' Blue-Ray player* will also connect to your router to enable Netflix downloading.

    Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.

    If starting without any potentially compatible devices, then the Roku is probably the cheapest Netflix option (£49).
