NETFLIX viewers are wowed by the latest hack which helps you find your perfect film or TV show.
From action thrillers to showbiz musicals, the secret list of codes gives you access to plenty of hidden categories.

You can search for super-specific genres by adding the codes to the end of any Netflix URL.
Typing in 1402 brings up all Late Night Comedies, while the code 8985 will direct you to Martial Arts movies.
Netflix uses an algorithm to customise each viewer’s homepage by collecting data about their interests and viewing history.
So only a minority of Netflix’s collection can be viewed without the special codes.
The genius trick lets you discover specific genres, such as Film Noir and World Music Concerts.
Viewers are just realising the secret hack.
Many have taken to Twitter to express their excitement.
One Twitter user, @SupaMrs, asked: “Did y’all kno about this?”
Meanwhile, @hilary53davies called the trick “brilliant.”
Another user @kdrama_ahjumma took to Twitter to say: “I am today yrs old when I found out netflix has some sort of secret codes for every genre? Like yall able too see all the movie list instead of just seeing 30 to 40 movies. WOW.”
Netflix is packed with hidden secrets, so the fun doesn’t end here.
The company launched a brand new feature to kick out individual freeloaders on your account – before the firm starts charging you for them.
This will save you from paying higher bills each month.
And parents are thrilled to find a new Netflix hack that fast-tracks searches, taking them to the best kids’ movies and TV shows in just seconds.
What are Netflix’s secret codes?
To access the genres, simply put the specific code at the end of www.netflix.com/browse/genre or enter it into the streaming service’s search bar
