I actually hate that "feature" even more than autoplay. It's completely disrespectful to both the viewer and to the content that you're watching.

This option is to turn off autoplay when browsing. It would be great if it also disabled the auto play on trailers at the end of a show.

That bugged me enough the first time it happened that I immediately stopped what I was doing and worked on disabling it.

If you use greasemonkey/tampermonkey then the script below will disable the post-episode playback (along with a couple other UI changes)

I was hoping to find your comment in this thread, thank you so much for this. It makes me mad someone else is controlling these very basic things, treating their userbase like mindless monkeys. All these things could be hidden somewhere in the UI, and everybody would be happy.

My Netflix watching is all via an AppleTV, but thank you anyway.
