How to Access 'Hidden' TV Shows & Movies on Netflix

If you're an avid Netflix user, you're probably already aware of the basic content categories that the on-demand streaming service provides. These include everything from Documentaries to Comedies and from Dramas to Sci-Fi. But as expansive as they are, these are not the only ones available on Netflix.

In fact, there are numerous micro sub-categories that are buried in the depths of the massive content library that Netflix boasts. But the good thing is that it's not difficult to find these categories (and the content that's under them). For accessing these, you need to be logged on to your Netflix account through your PC.

Assuming this is done,select any category under the 'Browse' section. Now in the URL, you'll notice a number after after the genre in the link - www.netflix.com/browse/genre.

For instance, if you click on comedies, the URL will change to https://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/6548, where '6548' represents this (comedies) category.

This number is the category code and in order to find a particular category, all you need to do is replace this code with the code of the micro sub-category you're looking for.

Here is a list of codes for all the available various categories:
