As much as we all love Netflix for its convenience and its handiness, there's definitely a few areas where Netflix could potentially improve upon.

Ted Sarandos, Reed Hastings - if you're reading this, no need to thank us. Just put these features and we'll be happy.

 

11. HAVE A RANDOM SELECT BUTTON

Really, this one is quite simple. Pick a genre. Spin the wheel. Boom. 

 

10. IF YOU'VE SEEN THE FILM, HAVE IT MARKED AS SUCH

That 'Previously Watched' category doesn't always update. Just mark the films we've seen with a tick or something.

 

9. DO SOMETHING ABOUT POTENTIAL SPOILERS IN SHOW DESCRIPTIONS

If we miss an episode of House of Cards or OITNB and have to go back, there's a potential to see what happens next. Quick layout change would sort that out.

 

8. PUT AN EXPIRY DATE ON WHEN CERTAIN FILMS / TV SHOWS ARE LEAVING NETFLIX

The amount of times we've said that we're going to watch something only to find that it's gone the next day. In fact...

 

7. SOME SORT OF PUSH NOTIFICATION OR REMINDER DEVICE FOR WHEN FILMS ARE EXPIRING WOULD BE NICE

Just a quick text to say such-and-such is leaving Netflix. It's an excuse to get out of doing stuff so you can stay in.

 

6. GIVE US THE OPTION TO PAY EXTRA FOR WATCHING DIFFERENT COUNTRIES' LIBRARIES

Look. Proxies are a thing. We all know this. You know this, Netflix. So how's about a less shady way of doing it? You can't honestly sit there and tell us the Irish version of Netflix is superior to, say, the Canadian one? Of course it isn't. However, we'd happily pay an extra amount to use their library.

 

5. INDIVIDUAL RATINGS FOR EACH SEASON OF A TV SERIES

We could have avoided Season 3 of House of Cards if this was a thing.

 

4. JUST DUMP ALL THOSE CANNON GROUP FILMS FROM THE '80s

Nobody's watching them. They're clogging up the library. Sure, you need filler but COME ON.

 

3. A SUGGESTION BOX FOR POTENTIAL FILMS / TV SERIES WOULD BE GOOD

We keep searching for re-runs of The Simpsons, even the first ten seasons, hoping they get the point. Nothing happens.

 

2. A BETTER "IF YOU LIKED THIS, WATCH THIS" FEATURE THAT ACTUALLY WORKS

Really, some of the choices we've seen are pretty dubious. Sort out that algorithm altogether.

 

1. DISABLE THAT "ARE YOU STILL WATCHING _________" FEATURE ONCE AND FOR ALL

Yes, I'm still watching. Yes, I know it's late. Yes, I know I have work in the morning. Stop with the judging, Netflix.
