Netflix is on the ropes as millions of viewers are cancelling their subscriptions. According to the news this morning it's because Netflix focuses on "quantity over quality", which I get. Lotta stuff on Netflix, but not much worthy of watching. Anyway, I read about this a long time ago and have never tried it, but apparently there are thousands of movies on Netflix that you can't find on the main navigation platform. You have to use a code to find the available movies (supposedly there's a porn code as well, but don't know it and wouldn't share it anyway...LOL...I'm sure someone could find it using Google if they so wanted). I've never tried using a code and was wondering if anyone else has and if so, how do you do it and is it worth it?

One of the codes is for "Classic Movies" and judging by many posts on The Front Porch, we have more than a few people into the old classics so maybe there's a gem or two in there they haven't seen or have been unable to find

Anyway, here's a list of codes from: https://www.netflix-codes.com/

Nice find Ric ( @Jolly Blue Giant )


My biggest issue with Netflix is they are too quick to pull the trigger on canceling new series.  It's annoying to start investing in watching a series only to learn halfway through it that Netflix decided not to renew it.

Not sure because I've never tried it. However, the site I posted above says:

"How does it work ?

Once you've found the code for the category that you're searching, you just have to put the code in the search bar or you can replace the xx in this link https://netflix.com/browse/genre/xx with the code or simply click on the CODE.
"

Makes me think you can only watch these movies on a computer...unless you use the TV to mirror the computer which my son does. I however, cannot because I don't want to learn anymore technology and am stubborn about it. My son has his BS from University of Wisconsin in "Computer Technology" so if I want something technical, I put it in his lap...LOL

I think what you could do is use the computer to search the movies, save them to your list and then watch them in the usual manner since the Netflix account ports over all devices including computers

That's what I just tried. I used the link and put in "43048" (Action Thrillers) and it has a whole browsing platform just like on the TV. If you see a movie you like you can use the "search" function on the TV (I presume) and find the movie

I've definitely used the search function to put in a specific genre. Works fine.

I haven't tried it yet. Just going by "you just have to put the code in the search bar" on the page.

It works great!  Type the code into the search bar and bingo.
