About this wheel
Choice overload is a common problem with streaming services. When everything is available, nothing feels like the right pick. Narrowing the field to a single genre makes the decision easier and often leads to something you would not have chosen.
This wheel picks the genre. After you spin, you only need to choose a film within that category, which is a much smaller task. For a one-step version, replace the genres with the actual film titles on your watch list.
How to use it
- Remove genres anyone refuses to watch.
- Spin the wheel.
- Search your streaming service for that genre and choose a title together.
- If nobody can agree, spin the name wheel to pick who decides.
- Remove the genre next time to explore new ones.
Ways to customise it
- Add decades, such as 80s, 90s, 2000s
- Add formats, such as short film or animated feature
- Replace the list with your actual watch list
- Add *3 to a genre the group loves
Tips
Check the age rating before you press play, especially with children in the room.
Agree on the rule before the spin: "We watch whatever genre it picks." Then there are no arguments.
