Netflix is Netflix, that's not what this review is about. It's about the app itself. It's a hot mess. Incredibly badly optimized, doing all the things you don't want it to. Android TVs are not powerful devices, so how about you first load the UI and all the components, before trying to play all the trailers? How about you don't hog up the main thread with god knows what? It's not that hard to make an app you can navigate while content loads in the background. I do that for a living.

Works okay, but compared with Netflix apps on other platforms, this one on Chromecast with Google TV is terribly irritating. It won't let you read an episode summary without at the same time blaring out a clip wth sound, and when the clip finishes, it starts playing the episode without being asked to. Also has as default to play the next episode directly when the current one is finished, as if everybody was a binge watcher.

it's frozen on start I don't even know to restart an app on TV so now I cannot use Netflix. apart from that you know all the classic terrible search experience which Returns everything except for your searching for instead of a simple hey this title does not exist. I've yet to find a way to skip chapters or fast forward quickly. how many are terribly slow.
