Why these Netflix codes?
On Netflix, the categories are rather limited. In all, there are about fifteen categories to filter several thousand films. Difficult to navigate especially when looking for something specific. Thereby, Netflix engineers have created little secret codes allowing access anyway to other categories and even to normally invisible sub-categories.
There is a series of codes for all kinds of Netflix movies, but also for the series in the Netflix catalog. It is also interesting to note that codes for content suitable for anime from the Netflix catalog are available. You can even access movies and series by age group. Pretty cool isn’t it?
So if you want to enjoy it, or find your next series to download, use the list of top codes hidden above. There is an even more complete list, but then we have access to really very very precise filters. We are still talking about 27,000 categories and sub-categories available! You will find this list of secret codes here. Did you use any of these codes one night when you were lost in the twists and turns of the VOD service? What are your favorite categories?
