Last year, for example, Netflix tried out a shuffle mode that let you click on a popular show to start playing a random episode. The new “Shuffle Play” button is the latest in a long series of tests where Netflix has tried to make a shuffle concept work. (Of course, that’s also what gave us the annoying auto-playing feature, which Netflix finally allowed users to disable with an update earlier this year.) Ultimately, the company wants the experience of using Netflix to feel more like watching traditional TV - meaning you can just turn it on and something starts playing. This is a challenge Netflix has addressed over the years through a variety of features and tests, like screensavers on its TV apps, pre-roll videos and even promotional content showcased on the home screen. The company tells TechCrunch the idea behind the feature is to help its members quickly and easily find content that’s tailored to their tastes. Bitch fuckoff I watched all 9 seasons back in 2018 already😭😭😭 And it played Modern Family from the start. Skskskdjdjsj Netflix has a shuffle play option now.
