Did You Know About Netflix’s Secret Codes For Accessing Hidden Movies, Shows? Here’s The List!

We will be speaking a lot about Netflix today. So you might as well have fun, don’t you think?

This quarantine period has brought in a lot of time for learning, cooking, practicing yoga, exercising, catching up with your inner self and what not.

We have also come to know that in the ‘work from home’ period, a majority of you all along have been gravely engaged in the very engaging OTT platform, Netflix.

Speaking of the platform, there’re a plethora of TV series, documentaries and movies covering every known genre, available on Netflix. This lockdown situation has built up everyone’s taste for a particular kind of genre, or we can say, each one of you must have by now inclined more towards a particular genre of content slightly more than the rest; oh and then there’s the ‘vibe’ and a connecting genre to it. We get it.

However, there can be days when you would feel like deflecting from the usual path and watch a completely different thing, wanting your mind to blow away- an altogether different experience, for a change.

It gets a bit tedious in situations like this because the way Netflix works is that it mainly customizes your homepage according to the movies and shows you generally watch.  This is why the genres you normally don’t watch often don’t show up unless you specifically type the name.

However, today we are here to help you get out of this ‘customised’ radar and discover a whole new world of movies and TV shows to you, which was always already there.

Netflix Secret Codes

Netflix has a whole list of secret codes that you can use to find movies and shows, according to genres, to watch.

For instance, you may not very much be into documentaries but one fine you would want to watch suppose a crime doc, or a classic horror, or anything different.

We have just the thing for you that is going to change your Netflix game!
