Showerthought: I accidentally found the perfect way to pick my next binge show after staring at Netflix for an hour.
I was totally stuck. Scrolling forever, starting something and quitting after ten minutes. Then I remembered a list I made on my phone months ago, just shows people mentioned that sounded good. I picked one at random, 'The Bear'. No more reading descriptions or watching trailers, just hit play. I was hooked by the end of the first episode. It completely bypassed my decision paralysis. Anyone else have a weird method that actually works for choosing what to watch?

That "list you made months ago" trick is basically the same as picking for me, just with extra steps. I need to be in the right mood, so I'll watch a trailer or read the first review. If it doesn't grab me right then, I'll skip it. Random feels like a recipe for wasting my time.
