NETFLIX CODES – THE REAL STORY
Here's how Netflix's Jessica Dershowitz explains the codes...
"According to Mary Bertone of Netflix’s evidence team, these codes date back to the days when Netflix was still in its DVDs-only phase.
"At the time, Netflix.com had a public-facing genre tree that linked out to all the various types of films and TV series, each of which has its own specific ID code.
"A fan scraped the genre tree for all the codes, shared the list online, and people have been using those codes (along with the thousands more that have been added since) to this day.
"New codes are being added whenever inspiration strikes."
HOW TO USE NETFLIX CODES
There are two main ways to use Netflix codes.
The first is if you're using something with a web browser – like a laptop or PC.
Simply tap in the following URL into your web address bar and replace the Xs at the end with the Netflix code of your choice:
- //www.netflix.com/browse/m/genre/XXXXX

If you're watching on a TV, simply enter the code into the search bar.
