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.

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.

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 recently got a neo Qled QN90B samsung tv... It has built in alexa and I was able to ask open/close netflix... however when I ask to search movies in netflix..... alexa responds OK however in screen it appears " that function are not available with the current settings"... How do I get alexa search contents in netflix?

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 ?

Hello members, I hope someone can help me with this, I have Sony KD49XD8077SU 4K HDR Android TV, I want to be able to use voice search on Netflix app or from the home screen but it does not work, when I search from home screen it only gives me results from youtube and google play movies, from the Netflix app the voice search does not work at all

I manged to sort the google voice search out on my android tv, I can now get Netflix results when I voice search from the home screen, it might sound weird but all I did was installing google app and when I voice searched asked me which app I want to use then I picked google search app and selected always, now when I search for movies and tv shows using voice search I get results from Netflix and save me time typing in Netflix app

Thanks Peter_S for your reply, I can't use voice search in Netflix using remote control as there is no option within Netflix app, and when I am at home screen and voice search for tv shows or movies I only get results in youtube, google play movies, no Netflix voice search results.

Many people enjoy learning Chinese by watching Chinese movies and dramas. Netflix has added many options with Mandarin Chinese audio for your viewing pleasure. I recently discovered that you are no longer able to change audio settings from the APP. Here are step-by-step instructions with images to show you how to search for Chinese shows on Netflix.

Most people will be familiar with the basic recommendations Netflix has to offer on its homepage, such as "Popular on Netflix," "Trending Now," and "Because You Watched [insert TV Show]". Other known options are the Genre pages, as well as the "Latest" tab at the top of the screen.

Another feature you may have overlooked is the search bar. You can use it to look for specific titles, but it provides you with so much more than that. Once you type a title into it, you can, like in the previous option, view shows similar to that. You can also search by your favorite actor, director, or screenwriter, and even by your interests, such as "Strong Female Lead."

As a visual content company, it makes sense for Netflix to have an incredibly active YouTube channel, which can act as an additional source for you to explore new and interesting TV shows. There is the main channel or the ones dedicated to different regions, such as Nordic, India, and the UK & Ireland.

The videos range from trailers to new arrivals, recommendations on what to watch this week, behind the scenes features, and even reaction videos to TV shows and full-blown podcasts. Basically, everything you need to pique your interest in new content.

While its title refers to the Internet Movie Database, IMDb has long been an authority on ratings for TV as well. Every title on this website has a viewer rating between 0 to 10, which can provide you with a pretty good measure of how good that show is.
