Anyone else hate the look of the new Netflix?

White type on a black background for the reviews? Seriously? Could it be any harder to read. And don't get me started.

1. I hate it too

Why can't they leave well enough alone? (sigh)

2. Yeah, improvement it's not.

3. That is just horrible.

I like things to be simple and easy to read. Reading reviews is now painful and having to scroll down them sucks. I don't mind the dark background for browsing through the movie lists but I wish they also had a simple list of the movie titles which would be so much faster. I often look at instantwatcher.com to save time.

Netflix on my newer Roku Stik has that same awful background. I like the look of Netflix on my older Roku HD, simple, bright and easy to use and on my older Roku my list of movies is right there at the top all the time.

5. Agreed! The background, the scrolling, the layout - all HORRIBLE!

4. Oy !

sometimes it seems like a conspiracy ,changing the deck chairs for no good reason , black text on a white background works better .

6. It has become very user unfriendly

But this is not the only place this is happening. Just about every web site I frequent seems to have moved to a "new and improved" format within the past year that just plain sucks. If only the "classic" view was still available when a change is made, because these new views feel like a step backwards. Netflix has really made it challenging to see their content.

7. companies move the deck chairs all the time

bad move
