For New Year’s Day, Netflix has spun up a hotline to help you discover new shows employing talent from their Originals with suggestions. We’ve gone through the entire phone service to grab all the suggestions on your behalf.
The number when dialed gives you a host of options and the ability to dial in codes to reach celebs and different recommendations. How you get the individual celeb is by heading to the Netflix Twitch channel.
The Twitch channel features the actor and comedian Ify Nwadiwe giving Netflix suggestions and doing all sorts of weird tasks whether that’s creating a new Netflix Original in Photoshop, running on a treadmill, attending a karate lesson, or making a smoothie.
