Netflix denies changing the viewing order of Love, Death & Robots based on user demographics

The Daily Dot

Viewers of the18-part sci-fi animated anthology series that premiered last week report being presented with viewing orders that are different from the official IMDb episode order listing. For instance, LGBTQ tech advocate Lukas Thoms says he was presented with a first episode with a gay protagonist, while a straight friend received a different episode. Netflix tweeted a response to Thoms explaining the discrepancies: "We've never had a show like Love, Death & Robots before so we're trying something completely new: presenting four different episode orders," Netflix tweeted. "The version you're shown has nothing to do with gender, ethnicity, or sexual identity — info we don't even have in the first place."
