I don't want Jane Fonda celebrated, I want her arrested, tried,
convicted, and executed.
Plus I watched the one with blonde Natalie Morales and it was lousy.
Of course it was, it was the Huff.
but it did offer up:

LOL, okay, on default settings I click SPIN and ...
OMG! Deep Blue Sea! That was *awful*!!!
In four more spins it offered up GLOW which leads me to believe this
isn't actually random.
Okay, setting to "Science Fiction TV shows >5 score on IMDb"
Black Mirror (I watched one ep)
Star-Crossed (that was awful)
Luke Cage
Travelers
Dark Matter
Let's up the score to >9
Twilight Zone
and ... that's it. Really? Twilight Zone is the *only* sci-fi TV show
rated more than 9??? Huh. Even Star Trek is only 8.3.
Switching that to movies. Wow. Netflix has NO sci-fi movies rated over
9. Moving down to >8 ... only two movies qualify, Young Frankenschteen
and Metropolis.
Film Noir over 9 yields nothing. Over 8 yields only Sunset Boulevard.
Same for >7. Same for >6. Same for the final setting, >5. Holy crap.
Same for "any score" - The Netflix only has ONE film-noir movie???
I think what I've learned here is that The Netflix is weak on quality
sci-fi and film noir.
Geez. Too bad I have a zero tolerance policy on Chrome. What I *want*
to do with Netflix is enable zoom/stretch on 4:3 stuff.
But I don't want to watch The Netflix on the computer anyway. I wonder
if all that stuff can be dumped through your AppleTV or whatever to
watch on a real TV set?
