Netflix: 200 secret codes to see all its hidden series and movies

Browsing through Netflix's extensive catalog can be sheer madness. The streaming platform is always promoting new series and movies, but when we leave the most common premieres, it is difficult to find certain things. Many times you only find out that they have a certain movie if you specifically look for it, and the truth is that that is not too cool. How much content does Netflix really have hidden in its catalog?

To answer this question, the website of Netflix Codes has published a list with more than 200 secret codes for Netflix. With these numerical codes we can access all the categories and subcategories of your catalog and see what movies and series make them up. A good way to find out everything that is really on the billboard. How many zombie or silent movies are currently on Netflix? Now we will see.

The 200 secret Netflix codes to access the entire “hidden” catalog of the platform (Updated 2020)

To discover the 200 categories and subgenres that Netflix handles in its streaming service, we only need to have a browser at hand and paste the following URL:

//www.netflix.com/browse/genre/XXXX

Where "XXXX”Corresponds to each of the following codes that we see below. For example, if we want to see the repertoire of action comedies, we will have to enter the URL //www.netflix.com/browse/genre/43040 .

That said, we go there with the list of codes in question for all kinds of genres, from action and adventure films, through science fiction, cult cinema or romantic comedy. The list is updated to 2020, also including the new LGTBQ themed categories introduced by Netflix during this last year.

Of course, this is a trick that we cannot use directly from the Netflix app. The most comfortable thing we can do is add the titles that interest us to "My list"From the browser and see them later on our usual device (PS4, TV Box or whatever).

Finally, it is important to remember that the Netflix catalog varies depending on the country of origin: the series and movies in the US are not the same as in Netflix Japan, for example. For this reason, it is possible that some categories may appear empty when we consult them from our app or browser.

In any case, it is still a shame that we have to resort to this type of safe-conduct to find out everything we can see on the platform. Nor should it be easy to handle such a volume of content and present it in an attractive and accessible way to the viewer. At least now thanks to Netflix Codes we have one more tool to squeeze our monthly subscription a little better.
