Felix is your house cat that sits on your remote, and randomly switches channels. This Chrome extension brings back the days of surfing through random TV channels, making discovery easy and fun. Filtering content by age and rating also possible.

Does this result in your netflix library thinking you've watched up to a certain point of random shows throughout your netflix library?

@jarrod It does unfortunately. Netflix now does allow removing these unfinished shows, but this would be quite complex to automate in an extension, but possible.

@georgety that's a little annoying, still a cool product though! Well done George 👏

@jarrod maybe a work around would be using another profile for this.

Fun! I don't watch things on Netflix unless I know they're good, and now I have an entertaining way to randomly sample stuff. Thank you! Two questions/feedback: 1) can it be made to only work on the tab where the extension starts and not the one in focus, and 2) can you keep a list of what was watched in the extension? this could be helpful for going back to things you liked, if you don't hit stop in time or realize you want to later.

Interested in hearing some feedback from PH community, or just let me know what new show you discover through this! Cheers.

@georgety I really miss a feature like this in Netflix! I am always looking for a show or movie to watch for 30 minutes… with this feature a lot of shows and movies would be much more accessible. Content which would not be on my radar otherwise.

This is a lovely idea! As someone who previously worked in the streaming industry, live/linear programming is something that’s definitely missing from the streaming experience today. Would love to follow up with you on this.
