There's a secret Netflix trick where you can request what movies and TV shows they should add

Did you know that you can send Netflix requests for which shows and movies it has available to stream?

Yeah, neither did we.

Late Sunday night, comedian and Brooklyn Nine-Nine star Chelsea Peretti was alerted by Netflix's Philippines account that you can request Netflix to add any TV show or movie that you can think of. This is lunacy.

A Twitter and Netflix user in the Philippines pointed out on Twitter last week that Netflix Philippines doesn't have Peretti's stand-up special, One of the Greats. On Sunday, Netflix Philippines replied with a link to its request page, which apparently is a thing.

Peretti noted that nobody knew the drill and this request page is not something that's widely known.

On Netflix's request page, you can request any three movies or TV shows you like. You can request that they bring Lost back, or maybe bring all the Star Wars movies to the streaming service.

Of course, Netflix can't just bring the most popular series or movies to its service. Once you submit a request, Netflix notes that, while they do appreciate the feedback, there are limits to what they can do:

While we love hearing your suggestions, sometimes we just aren't able to license a particular movie or TV show. Reasons we might not be able to secure a license include:

- The content rights are currently exclusive to another company.

- Example: Game of Thrones is an HBO Original Series.

- The streaming rights are not available to purchase from the content provider.

- Other factors, including popularity, cost, or seasonal or localized availability.

But maybe, just maybe, if enough of us request it enough, we can get 30 Rock back. There's no harm in trying.
