Now that we are forced to spend most of our free time in our homes, Netflix is one of the pleasant ways to shorten it.
Unfortunately, Netflix often makes it impossible to discover new movies and tv shows, if you previously haven’t watched something similar. However, this simple trick allows you to find new interesting content to watch.
All you have to do is log into your Netflix account and enter www.netflix.com/browse/genre/#CODE# into your browser’s toolbar (instead of typing #CODE#, you’ll type in a code that correspond to a subgenre).
Note: Due to regional differences some of the codes may not work.
