Netflix Announces ‘Skip Entire Show’ Button to Save Viewers Time

LOS GATOS, Calif. — Netflix has unveiled a new feature called the “Skip Show” button, allowing subscribers to bypass entire series in a single click. The streaming giant claims the tool is designed for viewers who “want the cultural benefits of binge-watching without the time commitment.”

The announcement was made on Netflix’s official newsroom (about.netflix.com) and has already sparked lively debates on social media platforms. Users say the function resembles the popular “Skip Intro” button but on an exaggerated scale.

According to Netflix product director Sarah Thompson, the feature automatically marks a show as “watched,” updates personalized recommendations, and frees up hours of screen time. “We understand people want to keep up with trends without losing sleep,” she said.
