There are dozens of Greasemonkey scripts on userscripts.org dating back to 2005 that do exactly this and more (On Chrome, you can use the Tampermonkey extension; On Firefox, it's just called Greasemonkey). No to belittle your work or anything, but why is this interesting or newsworthy?<p>Also, I suspect that some of the comments here are either fake or staged. However, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. If my skepticism and critique here are based on misunderstandings, I apologize.

Any reason the add-on for Firefox is 4.2 MB? It would by and far be the largest extension I've encountered.<p>edit: looks like there is a v0.1.2 coming which is much smaller 404.3 KB <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/netflix-rate/versions/" rel="nofollow">https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/netflix-rate/...</a>

Perfect timing! I was thinking of spending a weekend myself for an extension like this. You saved me a much pain, Thanks!<p>It would be great if you can add the IMDb rating at bottom right corner of the title image, instead of me having to hover on title to see. It kind of gets annoying to check each and every title for ratings.

Great idea but the reviews in the chrome store indicate that it sometimes shows the incorrect ratings. If it works well I'd use it but I'd rather have no extra ratings if I can't trust them.

Great that you included firefox too. I can't watch netflix on linux, so it helps to have the firefox option for wine.

Awesome extension. Anyone know if there's an extension that links you to the Netflix page for DVD only shows/movies?

That's a cool plug in - I generally don't trust the Netflix ratings as much as the other two.

I'm curious how sophisticated the cross-site movie-matching is and how well it works.
