This actually just happened to me when I resumed watching Mad Men, but it went to the English subtitles.

Don't know if this was brought up before on this thread [I'm not a Netflix subscribrer...well, not yet anyway], but thought I would pass this along:

From the nypost.com:

These secret Netflix codes unlock hidden show and movie categories
By Matthew Dunn, News.com.au March 10, 2018 | 2:29am
The recommended content on your Netflix account comes from a complicated algorithm analysing your viewing history.

And unless you are sharing your profile with your roommates, most of the content is pretty suited to your personal taste.

But, sometimes after endlessly scrolling through Netflix, you find yourself no closer to making a selection from the recommended content.

This is where a collection of “secret codes” will be a godsend.

By making a small tweak to the Netflix URL, you will be able to unlock hyper-specific genres such as religious documentaries or cerebral French-language dramas from the 1960s.

To manually explore categories usually hidden by the streaming service, you will need to enter the following URL: http://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/INSERTNUMBER

Then, simply replace the “INSERTNUMBER” component of the URL with one of the codes needed to access the alternative genres.

Spoiler:

ACTION & ADVENTURE

1365 = Action & Adventure

77232 = Asian Action Movies

46576 = Classic Action & Adventure

43040 = Action Comedies

43048 = Action Thrillers

8985 = Martial Arts Movies

2125 = Military Action & Adventure

7442 = Adventures

10118 = Comic Book and Superhero Movies

7700 = Westerns

10702 = Spy Action & Adventure

9584 = Crime Action & Adventure

11828 = Foreign Action & Adventure

COMEDY

6548 = Comedies

869 = Dark Comedies

4426 = Foreign Comedies

1402 = Late Night Comedies

26 = Mockumentaries

2700 = Political Comedies

9702 = Screwball Comedies

5286 = Sports Comedies

11559 = Stand-up Comedy

3519 = Teen Comedies

4922 = Satires

5475 = Romantic Comedies

10256 = Slapstick Comedies

CULT

7627 = Cult Movies

8195 = B-Horror Movies

1252 = Campy Movies

10944 = Cult Horror Movies

4734 = Cult Sci-Fi & Fantasy

9434 = Cult Comedies

4195 = Independent Comedies

DOCUMENTARY

6839 = Documentaries

3652 = Biographical Documentaries

9875 = Crime Documentaries

5161 = Foreign Documentaries

5349 = Historical Documentaries

4006 = Military Documentaries

180 = Sports Documentaries

90361 = Music & Concert Documentaries

1159 = Travel & Adventure Documentaries

7018 = Political Documentaries

10005 = Religious Documentaries

2595 = Science & Nature Documentaries

3675 = Social & Cultural Documentaries


This trick works for all regions of Netflix.

Hello

We just basically cut the cord with DirectTV and grabbed Amazon Prime yearly at $100 and installed two OTA to grab locals. We are now looking into another just to fill the gap...PS Vue, Sling, Hulu, etc...

Mainly we're looking at something to get networks like USA, SyFy, FX, TNT History, stuff like that. Does Netflix offer that or they more like Amazon with Movies & TV shows/series?

NF doesn’t have networks.

Hulu does that.

You can go to the website and see exactly what they have.

Yeah, I just did that the other day too. $35 a month for three months, and a free Apple 4K TV.

Not to take away from the Netflix Forum....but was that some "Special Deal" for a limited time? We got/signed up for DirectTV on some "Special Deal Pricing" on a two year contract that saw our rates start to go up two months in...and several other times in the last two years. The day the wife called to cancel it was..."well...we see you as a value customer and I'm authorized to offer_____" in which she said....."Bullsh*t...if we are so valued you would've offered that and other deals long ago". And neither her TV or the PS4 have that app....but Hulu is on both so we might give that a try......anyone have experience with Hulu as to quality and quantity.....and thought I saw or read their audio is only PCM/2-channel or do they offer D.D 5.1 at least?

Direct TV Now is an online streaming version TV service. Regular Direct TV is quantified as a satellite service and has subscription requirements, Direct TV Now is available as month-to-month and has been the same price since it started.

https://www.directvnow.com/ -- Scroll down about half way to see the Free 4K Apple TV deal (3 months) or the Free Amazon Fire TV deal (1 month)

Think of it as Direct TV only in name. You get free HBO if you're an AT&T Unlimited customer.

Netflix doesn't do live TV or current seasons of network shows, they have their own content and pick up back seasons of popular shows and movies.

Also check your bank or credit card for extra savings. My bank card was offering $35 cash back when signing-up for Direct TV Now.

They also offer $15 cash back on Hulu TV.

EW reports that Netflix used Twitter to announce that we will see a sequel to their Christmas original A Christmas Prince...I knew we would see a sequel and am doing an internal happy dance (I am at work).

FYI

Anthony Bourdain's Parts Unknown seasons 1-8 is being dropped June 16th. Catch up on the ones you're interested in before they go.

I'll be honest, not every episode is worth watching. There's a lot of bad/boring ones.

Also, Captain America: Civil War is being dropped June 25th. Probably won't return to a streaming provider until the Disney service launches.

Season 7 was released in September 2017. So probably around the same time frame.
