You should notice a selection of games pop up.

There’s even a Stranger Things 3 game.

How to host a long distance Netflix viewing party

This tip is great for watching your favourite Netflix shows at the exact same time as your friends or family even if they’re not in your household.

Netflix Party is a handy Google Chrome extension that allows you to watch Netflix with anyone.

Once you have downloaded the extension you can create a shareable link, which all your friends can click on for the same time viewing experience.

Netflix Party even comes with a chat feature so you can easily discuss what’s happening.

Play Netflix roulette if you’re feeling indecisive

If you’re struggling to find something to watch on Netflix, a “random” button may be the answer.

An online tool called Netflix Roulette picks out a show or movie so you don’t have to.

It even lets you filter by genre and IMDB rating to help hone your searches.

You can even add other streaming services like Amazon Prime Video to search through all your viewing options in one place.

You can find the Netflix Roulette wheel here.

Netflix secret codes

There are a selection of codes you can type into the Netflix search bar that will bring up ‘hidden categories’.

If you type in the code “47465” into your Netflix search bar, you will see some ‘classic Westerns’ pop up.

The code “48744” should bring up classic war movies.

In other news, China has built an ‘artificial moon’ to train its astronauts for future missions.

rugby ball shaped planet has been spotted outside our Solar System and scientists are calling it deformed.

And, Nasa thinks the James Webb Space Telescope will likely be hit by space debris.
