The website states: " Your Netflix queue is always stacked with movies and shows to hit play on, but what you might not know is that there’s a hidden way to make that viewing experience even better."

And to be honest, I think the majority of people are going to need it given the amount of content on Netflix.

Believe it or not, the list of shows on Netflix tops 36,000 - yep, really that much.

But with these now not-so-secret codes out in the wild, it should be a lot easier to find exactly what you want.
