Netflix is testing a new ‘Collections’ section that the company hopes will help users find TV shows and movies that they’ll like. Curated by humans rather than software algorithms, the Collections comprise of shows that are banded together based on their genre, tone, story line and character traits, rather than just standard recommendations based on the viewing history of users.

There is, however, no apparent timeline for a wider roll-out of Collections at this point in time. There’s also no guarantee that it would be available for all users globally. According to Netflix: “Our tests generally vary in how long they run for and in which countries they run in, and they may or may not become permanent features on our service”.
