Netflix Secret Category Codes and How To Break Them!

Date:

You may have not known this but, Netflix has secret category codes.

Added by Netflix engineers, these Netflix secret category codes can help you narrow down your streaming choices. From war movies, to Brazilian dramas, here is how to break the Netflix secret category codes.

Whenever you loop up a gener on the NEtflix website it gives you a URL that looks similar to www.netflix.com/browse/genre/6839 however, if you play around with that number you can find some secret categories. As Gizmodo pointed out, you can find a wide array movies including “visually striking films for ages 5-7? Or period pieces? We’ve found two unofficial lists online, here and here.”

While all of these secret category codes don’t work, it’s fun to find secrete movies that may have passed you by on Netflix.

If you have a few hours you can build up your own list of sub-genres by changing the number at the end of the given URL. If you are interested in how Netflix organizes its content and what these categories are for, read this Atlantic article where Alexis Madrigal broke the news.
