Well, this has been a long time coming… Numerous users have alerted us overnight to a new category on Netflix titled “Last Chance to Watch,” which finally lists some of Netflix’s upcoming TV and movie removals in one place. 

Before we get into the new category, we need to be clear that Netflix has always marked when titles from its library are leaving soon with a label that typically pops up around 30 days before their departure. Until now, though, there’s been no way to group them. 

If you’re not familiar, Netflix has thousands of categories that group its library of over 7,500 titles. You may have seen these referred to as “secret codes” before, but they’re everywhere within Netflix. Every row you see in the app, whether it’s for horror or comedy, is a category of some description. We’ve got the complete category code database here, consisting of over 4,000 categories

82120713 is the category code for the “Last Chance to Watch” category, and you can also access it with this link. It’s best to browse it in the web interface, but you can get it working to some extent on other devices as well. 

The category is by no means perfect. If you scroll down enough on the US list, for example, you’ll find The Emoji Movie listed. The problem? Netflix won’t lose that particular title until mid-May 2026, according to our intel. It’s also missing a fair few titles, but this is a start. 

By default, the category lists subcategories, but in the top-right corner, we’d recommend clicking the four boxes rather than the list format and switching to A-Z for the best way to explore the list. Sadly, you can’t sort by which titles are leaving soonest, and the only way to find out when each title is leaving is to click each one. Again, not perfect.

Until now, Netflix has added the removal sticker to the bottom of the tile and a notice on the page itself, but there’s been no way to see them all grouped before. The streamer also includes a small list on their “New on Netflix” newsletter sent to press, but it’s often incredibly abbreviated. 

Of course, we’ll continue listing removals — both for Netflix in the United States and in the United Kingdom — in our monthly roundups, in order of removal, and we’ll keep them updated throughout the month, so nothing changes there. 

The news comes as Netflix has been radically changing its application across numerous devices. Earlier this year, they began officially rolling out their significant UI refresh, which has drawn mixed reactions from users and continues to do so. Just yesterday, we also reported that Netflix is experimenting on the web by removing Netflix Original branding from titles.  

Are you glad Netflix has finally introduced the “Last Chance to Watch” category? Will you be using it? Let us know in the comments.
