The global demand of the biggest movie and tv series streaming provider Netflix had risen to massive tides. Netflix prides on its inscribed algorithmic mystery and magic that can predict what its subscriber wants to watch next on the roll. 

But of course, you want something really specific like a "Crime Thriller based on a book from the 1980s" according to your mood or the consensus of the group you're potato couching with. And to your surprise, Netflix had it- it's actually a real Netflix sub-category, and there are tons of them which you haven't discovered- just yet. 

Some of the specified and categorised genres with codes are Courtroom Dramas, Sports Dramas, Military Dramas, Political Dramas, Period Pieces, Showbiz Dramas, and the list goes on. You can find the rest of the sub-genres along with its assigned codes in this unofficial document. 

Netflix's "secret" codes are actually the streaming website's way of categorizing movies and shows into a curated range of sub-genres. These codes then were used to surface movie suggestions to its subscribers, according to KTLA 5 which it then uses to surface suggestions for subscribers.

But keep in mind that you should be logged in to your Netflix account in order for the secret codes to work. This technique also works best in a desktop computer. Manual labor required a bit of an effort but it sure does pay off. 

To start off, find a category you want to browse and click the appropriate "code link."
