Netflix's UI is designed to:

1) obfuscate its surprisingly shallow library

2) encourage user interaction (more telemetry data)

3) promote Netflix original content

As a user, I don't want any of this. A small cottage industry of alternative Netflix UIs has popped up, because sometimes you just want some good old fashioned filters and sorts.

A few examples:
