I realize this is anecdotal (feel free to ignore), but most times I open Netflix and go through almost everything they feature on the home screen...before turning it off because there isn’t anything that looks good.
I can't even count the number of Netflix shows/movies that the description didn't look all that appealing and the show absolutely was wonderful. Chef's Table was probably the biggest example. It looks like a cooking show. In reality is a beautiful documentary series about how world-renown chef's made their way.
Don't judge a book by its cover.

That said, their documentary productions are way better than the crap Discovery, History Chanel, et al. have been producing this past decades or so.
I just wanted to say that I strongly disagree. "USS Callister" and "Hang the DJ" in particular were great episodes in my opinion and very well received overall. "Black Museum" was also quite good. And "Metalhead", together with the black and white versions of Fury Road and Logan, presented a very interesting view of a mostly hopeless future.
I was actually hoping for a cooking show :-) I stopped watching after a couple of episodes.
On Netflix some people go through a season of a show in a day or 2. Then they complain there is nothing on for a couple months until they spend a weekend watching something.
Though I think it's more like when people say "ugh, nothing to do!" after checking Facebook and Reddit.
