Wow. They routinely recommend bad for me. I even tried going along with a lot of their suggestions. Spent a day trying that out. It sucked. Now they show up in my "Continue Watching" list which requires going into preferences to remove.
Now, Netflix doesn't even pretend to recommend good stuff. The "Recommended For You" sort gives me items that Netflix itself suggests I will rate 1-star. I must sort by rating to see the better stuff. And even then, most of the top items I've already seen. I cancelled.
I used to pay Netflix (before streaming) while not receiving any DVDs. The recommendations were good enough for me to decide what to download. Not so much now.
