Agreed! I mean maybe I don't fully understand the streaming business. But you would think that Netflix would want you to find shows on their service and watch it versus watching it on a competitor's service. Especially if you don't already subscribe to Netflix. I'd also think they would want those streaming numbers since they are pushing their cheaper ads included option.
If anything I would think Apple would be the one who didn't want it to show up. My mother just paid $30 for the first season of Gilmore Girl's because when she searched it the only option that showed up was to purchase it thru iTunes. Told her don't waste the money on the rest, you just have to go to the Netflix app and search.
Tried searching the Walking Dead on my Apple TV and the only result options were to buy on Apple or AMC. However, there are 9 seasons available on Netflix. Why does the search in Appletv not give Netflix results anymore in the USA?
Just to add a "me too". This worked up until a few days ago and then suddenly stopped working. Search does not find anything from Netflix, whether it's searched via Siri, the search app, or otherwise. Netflix shows already in the "Watch Now" list lost their "Netflix" tag and when selecting them, the Apple TV no longer shows Netflix as an option for watching them. Searching _within_ the Netflix app works as before.
You can put the secret Netflix menu to work to get full control over what kind of content you devour. It's all dependent on a code-based system. Different numeric codes on the service let you browse and select from thousands of niche genres and subcategories, whether you're into horror or rom-coms.
Typically, you're constrained to the genres available to you via the main Netflix menu. There's no way to choose by specific category other than what's been chosen for you when you log on. Using these codes opens up an entire library of options for you to choose from that can help you better settle on what to watch for the night. It can even help you discover new shows and movies you've never heard of.
Adding these codes to the ends of Netflix URLs lets you directly access collections of movies and TV shows that fall under your chosen category. For example, if you're short on time and want to queue up a shorter movie, you could check the 90-Minute Movies category with the code 81466194. Looking for something for your entire brood to enjoy? The "Family Movie Night" collection, accessed with code 2013975, is chock-full of favorites even Grandma can get into.
There are well over 36,000 codes to choose from, so don't worry about memorizing them or trying random sequences. Resources like Netflix-Codes.com have an entire directory to sift through, so you can search for what you'd like to watch there and find corresponding codes in no time.
Netflix-Codes.com has a comprehensive list of the streaming platform's hidden genre categories and subcategories. In total, there are around 20 top-level categories covering genres like animation, foreign films and classic movies. Within those main genres are many more hyper-specific subgenres denoted by numeric codes.
The entirety of the categories available on Netflix starts with broad main genres like Action, Comedy and Drama, but they get more specific as you dive even deeper. There are straight-to-the-point collections like Movies Directed by Women (code 2974953), or more specifically targeted curated lists, like Supernatural Soaps (code 81238162), just in case you like your werewolves with a side of angst and romance.
Are you a huge Swiftie? Is there another celebrity you want to learn more about? The Pop Culture Icons category (code 81278963) includes picks like the Taylor Swift-centric documentary Miss Americana or the Whitney Houston biopic I Wanna Dance with Somebody.
Maybe you've been told time and time again that you should really get into Korean TV and don't know where to start. Hit up the K-Dramas for Beginners menu (code 2953105) for a selection of hit K-Drama series like Squid Game and Boys Over Flowers.
Rather than relying solely on the standard homepage categories or Netflix's algorithm, you can use these secret codes to pinpoint and explore different nooks and crannies of the catalog to find hidden gems.
If you're not comfortable with editing Netflix URLs, you can use a browser extension to access the secret menus. The Better Browse for Netflix extension for Chrome is a great choice. Here's how to use it:
If the extension is installed, you'll see a Browse All option at the top of your Netflix home screen next to My List. Click it to scroll through the subgenres or to search through specific categories.
Alternatively, you can use the FindFlix: Netflix Secret Category Finder browser extension for Chrome or Firefox. This add-on will create a drop-down menu complete with Netflix categories for your browser that you can scroll through by clicking on the FF icon that will appear on the top right of your screen. There's no need to scroll Netflix natively with this add-on, and it features 7,500 categories alphabetized for your convenience.
4. If you're on a device that has the Netflix app installed, the app should open and take you directly to the genre or subgenre you chose. If you don't have the app installed, it'll open Netflix through the browser and you can view the specific movies and shows available.
I find I can no longer add Netflix shows to the playlist whenever I do a voice or manual search it takes me straight to Netflix but I want the shows in my playlist also. This used to be possible what's happened?
Thanks @Jporch316 I forgot about searching using an actor or director etc, I did this and it brought up the netflix shows I wanted and added them to my playlist. Had to look up some of the actors names first.
Also a lot of the time when doing a voice search for a netflix show all it does is open the page with your profiles on not even the programme it's self. So not only have they removed the ability to easily add a netflix show to your playlist it can now be more of a faff to get to the show anyway ?
Apart from that you can use general webscraping, using BeautifulSoup and requests. But doing it this way is not recommended as it will consume immense amount of bandwidth to scrape all the directories.
There is an API that you can subscribe to developed by uNoGS. The downside is that you can have a free account but have to submit your credit card details as, if you go over 100 requests a month, you will be charged. Needless to say alarm bells rang.Therefore, I'm looking into building my own and in the very early stages.Having seen some of the replies I just thought I'd throw it out there that the robots.txt file shows that the /browse subdirectory shows as 'allowed'.Normally on websites such as this, they stipulate that they allow it for reputable search engines to be able to scrape. There is however no such clause and therefore, with the legality, as discussed so far, it appears that scraping the browse section is both legal and ethical. That being said, even there is no 'Crawl-delay' stipulated, ethically I would suggest putting one if you do succeed in getting a requests working.
so I wrote some code for this exact thing as a lot of websites gave for the USA or other regions and couldn't translate to the exact answer that worked for my Netflix.
This one uses selenium but it shouldn't be hard to downloads and understand the code that I wrote.
-selenium
You can have a look at it and report anything you don't like. :)
The library does not subscribe to Netflix, nor does Netflix allow for institutional accounts that can be shared among faculty/students. Netflix also does not currently sell DVDs of their original content.
Any third-party agreements, such as Netflix's, supersede US copyright law exemptions, such as those for classroom or teaching activities cited above. Therefore, we generally do not endorse use of Netflix in classes due to the potential for copyright violations.
Netflix is unique in that they do allow "one-time" educational screenings (which includes once per semester for educators) of many "Netflix Original" documentaries - a collection of over 100 titles! See the links below for Netflix educational policies and to find and use the documentaries that are available for use in the classroom. The current releases are shown but you can use the search box to find older documentaries.

Suicide is a serious public health concern. According to the latest data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), suicide ranks as the 10th leading cause of death in the United States, across all age groups.
However, suicide becomes the third leading cause of death when zooming in on young people aged between 10 and 14. Furthermore, among those aged between 10 and 24 years, suicide rises to the second spot in the top causes of death.
Prof. Ayers and colleagues looked at the volume of Internet searches between March 31, 2017 and April 18, 2017. The end date of the period was chosen in order to avoid the date of April 19, 2017, which was when the American football player Aaron Hernandez committed suicide.
