'When an unexplained death occurs on their own doorstep, their casual sleuthing takes a thrilling turn as they find themselves with a real whodunit on their hands,' the streaming service said in a synopsis.
An all-star British supporting cast, including Naomi Ackie, Daniel Mays, Henry Lloyd-Hughes, Tom Ellis, Jonathan Pryce, David Tennant, and Richard E. Grant, joins the four principal actors in The Thursday Murder Club, which was helmed by Home Alone director Chris Columbus.
'There's a wonderful mystery at its core, so mystery fans will be very happy,' Columbus told Tudum of the film. 'But thematically it's interesting that we've got four elderly people who are living in a retirement community and who are fascinated by death and murder. They are facing their own demise, yet at the same time, they are obsessed with studying cold cases. I fell in love thematically with that. It's comedic, but it's also very emotional.'
The Thursday Murder Club hits Netflix on August 28.

Binge Smarter: Use These Netflix Secret Codes to Find What You Really Want
If it feels like Netflix keeps showing you the same handful of titles, you're not imagining it. The recommendation algorithm often cycles through a familiar lineup, making even a huge library seem limited. But behind the usual menus is a little-known trick that can open the door to a much broader selection: Netflix's secret category codes. These codes sort the catalog into incredibly specific genres you won't find on the standard homepage. You can browse everything from cheesy '80s horror flicks to wholesome teen romances or fast-paced "short-ass movies" under 90 minutes. Once you start using them, the hunt for something new gets easier, and your watchlist gets a serious upgrade. If you're ready to break into the annals of Netflix and discover something even more exciting than what the service is showing you, then keep reading. For more, check out our favorite sci-fi movies on Netflix and learn how to share your favorite Netflix clips via text message or social media. What are Netflix secret category codes? Netflix codes are a set of unique numerical identifiers that can help you find specific genres or sub-genres in the Netflix library on the streamer's website (not the app). Typically, you're constrained to the genres available via the main Netflix menu. There's no way to choose by specific category other than what's been chosen for you when you log on. Using these codes opens up an entire library of options for you to choose from that can help you better settle on what to watch for the night. It can even help you discover shows and movies. Adding these codes to the ends of Netflix URLs lets you directly access collections of movies and TV shows that fall under your chosen category. For example, if you're short on time and want to queue up a shorter movie, you could check the 90-Minute Movies category with the code 81466194. Looking for something for your entire brood to enjoy? The "Family Movie Night" collection, accessed with code 2013975, is chock-full of favorites even Grandma can get into. There are more than 36,000 codes to choose from so don't worry about memorizing them or trying random sequences. Resources like have an entire directory to sift through so you can search for what you'd like to watch there and find corresponding codes in no time. The Netflix-Codes site has a full directory of all the available categories on Netflix. by CNET How do I find Netflix's secret menus of movies and shows? There isn't an all-encompassing Netflix secret menu per se. Instead, you will use URLs with special codes to display certain curated collections of movies and shows. has a good list of the streaming platform's hidden genre categories and subcategories. In total, there are about 20 top-level categories covering genres like animation, foreign films and classic movies. Within those main genres are many more hyper-specific subgenres denoted by numeric codes. All you need to do is find the category you want, copy the related code and append it to the end of a Netflix URL. What kinds of categories does Netflix offer? There's much more to Netflix than what you've been scrolling through. At last count, there were more than 36,000 unique categories to explore. The entirety of the categories available on Netflix starts with broad main genres like Action, Comedy and Drama, but they get more specific as you dive even deeper. There are straight-to-the-point collections like Movies Directed by Women (code 2974953), or more specifically targeted curated lists, like Supernatural Soaps (code 81238162), just in case you like your werewolves with a side of angst and romance. Feeling "Very Demure, Very Mindful?" The very queen of that TikTok trend, Jools Lebron, has a collection just for you. Likewise, if you're missing football in the off season, check out Touchdowns, Triumphs & Trials. Rather than relying solely on the standard homepage categories or Netflix's algorithm, you can use these secret codes to pinpoint and explore different nooks and crannies of the catalog to find hidden gems. Netflix codes for award-winning movies and shows Netflix secret codes are exactly that -- secret. There's no official directory, and it's hard to get a full list, as categories will go empty as movies and shows move on and off Netflix. The names of categories will also change often as well so you'll want to be vigilant when you go searching for what you want to watch. To make it easier for you, there are even categories that you can use to find all the award-winning movies and shows to be discovered on the streamer. Award-winning movies: 89844 Award-winning TV programs: 89814 Award-winning documentaries: 93108 How do I find more Netflix codes? If you're not comfortable with editing Netflix URLs, you can use a browser extension to access the secret menus. The Better Browse for Netflix extension for Chrome is a great choice. Here's how to use it: 1. Go to the Chrome Web Store and search for "Better Browse for Netflix." (Note that this extension is unavailable for Firefox users.) 2. Click Add to Chrome. 3. Click Add Extension. 4. Log into your Netflix account in a new tab. If the extension is installed, you'll see a Browse All option at the top of your Netflix home screen next to My List. Click it to scroll through the subgenres or to search through specific categories. Adding the Better Browse for Netflix extension to Chrome gives you a drop-down menu with Netflix categories. Screenshot by CNET Alternatively, you can use the FindFlix: Netflix Secret Category Finder browser extension for Chrome or Firefox. This add-on will create a drop-down menu complete with Netflix categories for your browser that you can scroll through by clicking on the FF icon that will appear on the top right of your screen. There's no need to scroll Netflix natively with this add-on and it features 7,500 categories alphabetized for your convenience. A third way is through the Netflix Codes website. Here's how: 1. Visit in any PC or mobile browser. 2. Find the genre or subgenre you want to explore. 3. Tap the code next to the genre or subgenre you want. 4. If you're on a device that has the Netflix app installed, the app should open and take you directly to the genre or subgenre you chose. If you don't have the app installed, it'll open Netflix through the browser and you can view the specific movies and shows available. 5. Tap the title you want to watch and it'll start playing. Finally, if you're comfortable with creating custom URLs, you can use Netflix codes manually in your browser. Here's how: 1. Visit on any PC or mobile browser. 2. Find the genre or subgenre you want to explore. 3. In another tab, type in but replace INSERTNUMBER with the specific genre or subgenre code. For instance, will take you to "90-Minute Movies." 4. If done correctly, you'll be taken to Netflix to peruse the titles available in that section. Simply repeat this process the next time you find a code for a Netflix category you'd like to explore. You can do this as many times as you'd like. For more Netflix tips, learn how to get the most out of Netflix on your phone or mobile device and how to improve picture quality on streaming services.

People are expanding their 'families' to afford streaming subscriptions
Welcome back! Are you looking to infuse your diet with protein and fiber? One sports dietician shared the six meals she swears by for more energy and stronger muscles. On the agenda: Your phone can now tell you how fast you're aging. Men are ditching suits for loose pants and pricey tees in the RTO era. Would you spend over $5,000 to remove your under-eye bags? Sharon Stone reveals how Robert De Niro upset her on the "Casino" set. But first: Sharing is caring. If this was forwarded to you, sign up here. Download Business Insider's app here. This week's dispatch Welcome to friend socialism Would you care if your best friend saw what's in your Amazon cart — or what your neighbor is streaming on Netflix? Sharing subscription passwords with your family is one thing. But as subscription costs rise, Business Insider's senior correspondent Emily Stewart writes that more Americans are expanding the definition of "family" — to friends, neighbors, and even strangers. "The average US consumer pays for about five video subscriptions a month," Stewart writes. "So, people figure out all sorts of ways to game the system." One person told Business Insider she isn't afraid to share her Nintendo Switch Online subscription with absolute strangers she found on Reddit. Another said she's opting to share a phone plan with her roommate. "I was just like, we will literally save so much money if we just do this together," Nicole Nikolich told Business Insider. "It's been smooth sailing for years." While sharing passwords may have been a way for companies such as Netflix and Disney to hook people onto their services, they're now cracking down. Even HBO Max has warned customers: Users will "actually start to see some messaging" advising them to pay up, WBD streaming head JB Perrette said. Meanwhile, other companies such as AT&T seemingly couldn't care less how their customers use their family plans, as long as they're using them. A spokesperson for the company told Business Insider that families can "mean a lot of different things." AT&T even launched a new tool to help different people split payments more easily. Turns out it takes a village — or at least a good group chat — to afford subscription services these days. Your face as a medical device Have you ever wondered how fast you're aging? There's an app for that now. Harvard's "FaceAge" algorithm uses photos of your face to determine your biological age. FaceAge is an AI-assisted version of a practice doctors have been using for years: getting a quick visual, and then making inferences about how patients are doing. Scientists hope it could one day help physicians diagnose diseases earlier and treat patients better. We tried — and tricked — it. Welcome to the smart casual era As more companies call workers back into the office, men's workplace dress codes are changing. The stiff suit is no longer the norm; now, it's all about refined comfort. Looser silhouettes and even shorts have entered some offices. Some men are taking inspiration from TV shows like "The Bear." For suits, tailoring is key. Ditching your baggage Lower blepharoplasty (aka "bleph" on TikTok) is a cosmetic surgery that removes excess skin, fat, or muscle in the lower eyelid. Though the average patient is in their 50s or 60s, the procedure is gaining steam among those in their 20s and 30s. The surgery has become popular as interest in longer-lasting procedures rises. At $5,100 for what is generally a one-time operation, some patients find it a better deal than regular rounds of filler. Would you pay up for it? Sharon Stone's biggest moves Stone's breakout role in "Basic Instinct" catapulted her to stardom in 1992. The 67-year-old actor has led a fruitful career in film in the decades since. In an interview with BI's Jason Guerrasio, Stone discussed her journey in Hollywood, from rollerskating to auditions to working with Robert De Niro. She still models, too — and said she makes more money in that industry than in film. Plus, how she almost lost her most famous role. What we're watching this weekend "The Pickup": This Amazon Prime Video comedy brings out the big guns with Eddie Murphy and Pete Davidson, playing armored truck drivers who have a bad day when they are ambushed by thieves.

"Wednesday": Over on Netflix, the second season of this hit series finds Jenna Ortega returning as our favorite Addams family member.
