Netflix question (on Xbox One) about lists/availability...
Posted on 7/6/15 at 12:41 pm

I'm still relatively new to NF. I do like it, but I am curious as to if I am seeing everything it has to offer.
I use NF on my XBox One, and this is a basic screenshot of what it looks like:
You see where it says "Because you watched OitNB" and "Because you watched Red Lights"? Those are basically lists that are on there. And you can scroll through those lists. Other examples of what those lists might say are things like "My List" (which is the same as my queue), "Romantic Comedies," "Sci-Fi/Horror," "Silly Comedies," "Suspenseful TV shows," etc.
Those lists usually only have about 30-40-ish things on them, and that's it. And the lists change fairly frequently (best as I can tell). So my question is this...is there a place I can go to basically look through all NF has to offer? Like can I look at a list of ALL of their horror movies, for example? Or all of their TV shows?
As it stands now, in my limited knowledge of how NF works, I can only see limited numbers of whatever they put in those lists, or I can search for things specifically (like if I wanted to find a certain show or movie, for example). So do they have a place where I can view things in their entirety? Surely NF has to have more than it's currently showing me.
Any help is appreciated.![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/Iconcheers.gif)

You aren't. If it's not on the list you either need to do a search for it (Triangle button on PS3, no clue on XBox) or find it on their web site to add it to the queue. And the lists will change over time based on what you watch. They really need to add the ability to add lists or view all genres.
There's an app for the instantwatcher.com website that might be useful for finding shows to search for on NF XBox.

I find its easier to browse/search for stuff on my computer, than add stuff I want to watch to my list

I have wondered the same thing you have. I use the search function if something comes to mind, but that's about it. For instance, we wanted to watch a Harry Potter with the kids the other night and searched (it's not there if anyone cares).
It helps that the wife and I are still working our way through shows and know exactly what we will be watching coming up.
