Checking my email just now and I saw that the new series out on Netflix that they thought matched my viewing habits the best was... Dinotrux.

Half dinosaurs, half construction vehicles.

Someone who has watched this please tell me its like the Casablanca of dinosaur/construction animations out there.

If that were a SyFy movie and not a cartoon, I'd be all over is.

Or a wife who crushes out a few seasons of Say Yes to the Dress. I'm not going to lie, some can be entertaining, but it really skews the suggestions.

You can create an account for each person in your family. When I log into Netflix I just choose that I'm the one watching and it saves the last episode that I watched on a show. I only get suggestions for what I've watched. My kids just go into the kid account.

In the settings you can create a different profile for each member of your family. That way they don't suggest stuff for your kids or your wife under your profile. Have you guys never used that feature for Netflix?

no i'm agreeing with you and saying "wtf" to those who don't have separate profiles

but i will say the netflix suggestion at the top is typically terrible and just netflix trying to push their exclusive content

I agree. I do catch a good suggestion every now and then, though. The best thing about creating different profiles is the "continue watching" content is based on what you've watched and not other people in your family.

Ya, that's why I don't go through the effort of separate profiles.

I actually get a little entertainment out of reading the suggestions.

I get pretty good suggestions too. I tried to make a point of rating movies I had already seen when I first got netflix, and I try to rate movies as I watch them.

Honestly, it takes a shorter amount of time than it took you to write that message and all of yalls issues and complaints would be solved.
