For me personally, the recommendation engines choose the wrong aspects of shows that I like. They focus too much on genre, and not enough on writing qualities, variety, surprise, etc. Just because I liked one “gritty suspenseful murder mystery” (or whatever the genre is) does not mean I will like another! The execution could be wildly uneven in different programs that fall in the same subject matter bucket. I’d rather see a recommendation that can figure out my tastes across genres.
