Everyone knows that Netflix is guilty for getting a little too specific when it comes to categorizing what its users want to watch. So for a great April Fool's joke, they decided to take it to the next level.
Netflix decided to add extremely detailed categories to each user's account resulting in some double takes and some laughs. Netflix already features many elaborate category titles such as "Romantic comedies with a strong female lead" on a regular basis. So adding a few absurdly detailed titles was not only funny but extremely smart. The company acknowledged that they may take things to literal and made fun of itself. Well played Netflix...well played indeed.
