Streaming giant Netflix is launching a feature that will make it easier to find something to watch when you’re stuck browsing and unable to make a decision.

The service is introducing a tool called “Play Something” to users worldwide — the final iteration of that “shuffle” feature you may have already seen during Netflix’s tests over the past year.
