Netflix is testing 'Fast Laughs', a curated stream of comedy clips, on its TV app.As per The Verge, the feature lets you sift through a collection of funny short videos from shows and movies on Netflix, each about 30 seconds or longer, with the goal of introducing you to new content or helping you decide on what to watch.Once you've opted into the feature (and if you're part of the test), you can access 'Fast Laughs' by scrolling down on the Netflix homepage until you reach the 'Fast Laughs' row. From there, you can click into the feature, where full-screen clips from 'Army of the Dead', 'Big Mouth', Jerry Seinfeld's stand-up special, and more overtake your screen.You can use the arrows on either side of the clip to advance to the next clip or return to the previous one, and you'll also get the option to add a title to your List, as well as jump right into the presented show or movie.Unlike Netflix's 'Play Something' feature, which lets you shuffle through content suggestions tailored to your taste, 'Fast Laughs' is curated entirely by Netflix staff, meaning you won't get that personalized touch. But, the algorithm-stripped 'Fast Laughs' might expose you to different content than what Netflix's deeply ingrained recommendation system already calls your attention to, which often tends to get pretty stale.Last year, Netflix rolled out 'Fast Laughs' on its mobile app. As opposed to the TV version of the feature, the mobile version presents itself in a vertical, TikTok-like stream that you can seamlessly scroll through. It also provides options on the right side of each clip, letting you share it, add the show to your List, and react using a "LOL" button.Netflix's 'Fast Laugh' feature is slowly rolling out to users in the US, Canada, UK, New Zealand, Australia, Ireland, and "other select English-speaking countries." Only adult profiles have access to the feature, and you'll have to bypass a content warning to start watching the stream. It remains unclear how many people are part of the 'Fast Laughs' test for TVs, as well as when (or if) it will be rolled out to all users.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
