Have you ever wondered how Netflix recommends 1 of its 2,750 TV shows or 4,532 movies to you? Turns out the streaming service has sorted its movie and TV show catalogues into thousands of separate genres to help mix and match to your viewing tastebuds. The more titles you watch, the more specific the recommendations become.
Netflix doesn't publish a list of all those genres, so we've done the hard work and created the world's largest list of Netflix genres with over 27,000 genres. You can see the full list below, and you can filter it according to genre, description and decade. Click on the link for any genre to open it in Netflix, right in your browser. (For instance, "Biographical 20th Century Period Pieces About Fame" is genre 77456.)
With so many genres, Netflix doesn't just have 1 genre for zombie movies: it has 104. Here are 10 of the strangest keywords where Netflix has multiple genres, including a total of how many it has for that word:
Depending on which country you're in, some of these genres may not have titles available in your region, but it's still fun exploring. What are you waiting for? Time to queue your next Netflix binge!

Important information about this website
findershopping.com.au is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We are committed to our readers and stands by our editorial principles
We try to take an open and transparent approach and provide a broad-based comparison service. However, you should be aware that while we are an independently owned service, our comparison service does not include all providers or all products available in the market.
Some product issuers may provide products or offer services through multiple brands, associated companies or different labeling arrangements. This can make it difficult for consumers to compare alternatives or identify the companies behind the products. However, we aim to provide information to enable consumers to understand these issues.
We make money by featuring products on our site. Compensation received from the providers featured on our site can influence which products we write about as well as where and how products appear on our page, but the order or placement of these products does not influence our assessment or opinions of them, nor is it an endorsement or recommendation for them.
Products marked as 'Top Pick', 'Promoted' or 'Advertisement' are prominently displayed either as a result of a commercial advertising arrangement or to highlight a particular product, provider or feature. Finder may receive remuneration from the Provider if you click on the related link, purchase or enquire about the product. Finder's decision to show a 'promoted' product is neither a recommendation that the product is appropriate for you nor an indication that the product is the best in its category. We encourage you to use the tools and information we provide to compare your options.
Where our site links to particular products or displays 'Go to site' buttons, we may receive a commission, referral fee or payment when you click on those buttons or apply for a product. You can learn more about how we make money.
When products are grouped in a table or list, the order in which they are initially sorted may be influenced by a range of factors including price, fees and discounts; commercial partnerships; product features; and brand popularity. We provide tools so you can sort and filter these lists to highlight features that matter to you.
Please read our website terms of use and privacy policy for more information about our services and our approach to privacy.
We update our data regularly, but information can change between updates. Confirm details with the provider you're interested in before making a decision.
