Most watched genres and decades
Genres and Decades organize recorded titles by story type and release era. Bars show which views appear most in your history.
Where to find it: Profile > Stats > Statistics > Genres and Decades
How to
- Read the genres with the longest bars and their counts.
- Compare decades to discover the most common release periods.
- Check your watched records if a preference does not seem to represent your history.
How to interpret bars
- Genres come from recorded movies and shows with watched episodes. A show enters as a title without repeating its genre for each episode.
- A title may belong to several genres. Adding all bars can therefore exceed the title count.
- Most watched genres shows frequency in your history, not an average rating by genre.
- Decades uses the title’s release period. Watching a 1990s movie today contributes to the 1990s.
- Titles with incomplete genres or years may not appear in the expected view. Complete watched records and check title information.
What your viewing history highlights
- A long Genres bar indicates more frequent representation of that genre among recorded titles. A movie may contribute to drama and comedy at once.
- Decades bars show which release eras are most represented. They do not show the year you watched.
- A show with many episodes remains one work in genre and decade composition. It does not dominate every bar only because you marked many episodes.
- Frequent genres and highly rated genres are different questions. For manually chosen favorites, check Tops and favorite people in Wall.
If a preference is missing
- Check whether the titles you have in mind are recorded watched. Putting them in a list or Top does not replace logging.
- Open the title to check genres and year. Missing information can leave a work out of the expected bar.
- The genre highlight shows the most represented, not necessarily every genre in your history at once.
- For how much you logged this month, consult Activity. Genres and Decades summarize available viewing history.
