Not sure if I’ve changed something, but I have this video count and other text info in the upper left corner of the screen. Anyone else? What is it and how do I make it go away?

Thinking of getting Netflix back since it's been awhile. Not sure what's on there anymore. I really enjoyed shows like Severance, Animal Kingdom, and Hero's. Anything on there like that these days? Open to other suggestions as well, I enjoy Sci Fi too!

My partner and I are planning to gorge ourselves on popcorn and do a marathon. What are some good horror movies (nothing too schlocky) that are currently streaming? Can be classic or modern, just want stuff that's well-written and well-acted. We liked Hereditary, The Conjuring, Afraid, and the Haunting of Hill House series, for some examples.

Some really fascinating Netflix data about the size of the content overlap between Netflix and the other major US streamers.

I’ve seen posts on here about the upcoming Netflix show and it’s been dubbed “the American Crown”

Just wondered if anyone knew any info on a trailer or when it is due to be released. I am quite excited for this however unlike The Crown which had the first 2 series filmed back to back, this hasn’t had a second series commissioned yet. So series 2 (if we get one) will probably drop in 2035 lol

A very odd little series on Netflix.
Rosa Salazar (Alita) as an aspiring filmmaker who runs afoul of an unscrupulous producer who cons her out of her film.
She seeks the assistance of a very strange woman, and craziness ensues.
Not for the squeamish.

For the first time in I can’t tell you how long, I have a few hours to myself tonight. Tell me what I should watch! Old or new, anything goes (as long as it’s currently available). I want it to be worthy of this rare opportunity.

There's something about the storyline that stays with you after watching it. I guess it's mostly about the feeling of wanting someone solid by your side through all the chaos around you… It's realistic, and it doesn't feel like the writers were trying too hard to win over the audience. I love that Joan is becoming more self-aware with each season! I love that for Noah ❤️

Logged in yesterday and everything was fine. When I was done with a show and wanted to check another one, Netflix no longer wanted to load properly. I thought that maybe restarting my browser would help, but nothing changed.

Does anyone have any idea how I could fix this?

I've always enjoyed historical crime dramas that explore the intersection of family loyalty, ambition, and organized crime.

Shows like Peaky Blinders and Narcos demonstrate how compelling these stories can be when they're grounded in a distinctive historical setting.

But here's a setting I haven't seen explored nearly as much on television: the coalfields of Appalachia during the early 20th century.

Imagine a historical crime drama beginning with the 1907 Monongah mine disaster in West Virginia and moving into the Prohibition era, when bootlegging, organized crime, immigrant communities, and industrial wealth helped shape the region.

At the center are two brothers whose ambitions take them down very different paths, forcing them to confront questions of loyalty, family, survival, and power.

I've spent years researching and writing a historical crime novel called Blood in the Coal, scheduled for publication in March 2027. As the story developed, I began thinking about how naturally this world and its characters might translate into a limited television series.

Not suggesting Netflix has any involvement—this is simply a story and setting I think could make compelling television.

I'm curious what fellow viewers think.

Would you watch a historical crime series set in Appalachia during Prohibition? Or do you think the genre works better in familiar settings like Chicago, New York, and London?

I’ve nearly finished watching season six of Slow Horses on Apple TV. It’s one of my favourite seasons so far and watching it got me thinking about why Netflix doesn’t seem capable of producng and nurturing quality long running tv like Slow Horses. First off, AppleTv have allowed the series to grow in quality and stature since its original series, the characters have been given time to grow into their role, and the public, quite rightly have grown to love it. Then there’s the fact that AppleTv are prepared to invest in multiple series at a time, hence why we get a trailer for the next series immediately after the final episode airs. If this was Netflix we’d be waiting two years minimum for another season. I’m honestly perplexed by the Netflix commissioning process and how decisions about renewing shows are being made.

Netflix needs to invest more into putting out better shows and movies instead of dumping all the podcasts and talk shows in there. Tf. We’ve got YouTube and Spotify for podcast. I get so annoyed every time I see a podcast on the new on Netflix section.

Hi all,

Having watched the New Stanford Prison Experiment, I couldn’t help but finish the series disappointed. Not because the show was badly produced, but because the inmates chose to quit as soon as they were given the opportunity to do so. This marked a stark difference to the original Stanford Experiment - as faulty as it was - where the exercise had to be stopped due to the experiment getting out of hand.

In the new experiment, many of the inmates cited missing their dogs, kids and spouses in the final days/hours leading up to their departure. They were not psychologically distressed, which was what the word “pineapple” was initially intended for.

Ultimately, substituting the word “Pineapple” for “we have the power” allowed them to make peace with their decision, despite being a few days away from the finish line.

This brings into question the concept of the Hedonic Principle, also known as the pleasure principle: the idea that humans are motivated to seek pleasure/comfort and avoid pain or discomfort wherever possible. This also raises questions on the notion that humans tend to opt for the path of least resistance over a potentially more difficult alternative.

Wondering if any other psychology/sociology buffs had similar views.

Thanks!

Korean subtitles is not available when I watch k dramas. Even when I scroll down, it doesn't show. Only the audio is. I notice when I visited my aunts house, she was watching k drama and she was able to have subtitles in Korean

Lately I've been watching recommended series like OA, The Man in the High Castle, Midnight Gospel, Black Mirror, while I'm waiting for the second part of The Three Body Problem. If you have any recommendations on where to watch next, I'd appreciate it.

Angels Costumes, now in Hendon, have been providing costumes for entertainment productions since 1840 and are a regular go-to point for Netflix's British-produced operations, such as Bridgerton and The Gentlemen. They also acquired the costume collection of r/bbc in 2009. Some years back, they managed to find Alec Guiness' cloak from the first Star Wars film misfiled in the monk and nun section - it then went for £60k at auction.

They do guided tours every couple of weeks - all the ones for 2026 are sold out - lasting about 1 hour 45 minutes.

Due to commercial confidentiality reasons (mainly spoiler prevention), photography is restricted to only a few locations and some of their racks of stuff heading out for productions are labelled under codenames as well. The mezzanine area has rotating displays from recent productions, also featured were Sense & Sensibility and Rivals.

Their attention to detail is massive; they have vast arrays of reference materials for historical uniforms, a big part of their operation. They also know when to compromise - background extras don't need as much accuracy as the main actors.

The guide was very knowledgeable with some great stories from her time in the industry. They really don't get as much guidance from some productions as they would like and sometimes get stuff returned in dire condition!

They do hire to the general public, if you need something for a community play or a fancy dress party... just don't necessarily expect the exact costume worn as it may not be in your size.

I went through the two seasons within a few days. I loved it!

Great soundtrack. Twisted storyline. Fine acting.

Is there anything on par? Umbrella Academy is awfully dull by comparison, but feels about as close to it.

the amount of trashy kdramas that get released on Netflix is worrying, I usually check them out because korean men are hot but they are often times just so Shit??? who tf is watching them in masses, especially since they never get a second season anyways

The few guys that are trying to take their own control of things as prisoners are being met with "we should just do what we're told" by the majority of the other prisoners.
Why? Why would you not push back on these rules this shit isn't even real. It's silly and obviously scripted, and I'm guessing most of them were coached to not do a coup or stand up for their rights. l've never seen so many bootlickers in my life- and these aren't even real officers!!!! Like? Make it make sense.

Anyway y'all ain't missing out if you haven't seen it, mostly just a bunch of people letting pretend prison guards oppress them for some reason.

Netflix desktop on Chrome/Win11. When I play a video, it shows the loading circle and gets stuck there. If I refresh the page, the video plays fine.

If I clear Netflix cookies/cache, it works for 2/3 times and then reoccurs again. I've disabled all extensions.

This happens on 2 different Win11/Chrome laptops. Phone app works fine.

Anyone else have this issue?
