My wife is also like this and I honestly think the algorithm is geared towards this pattern. It constantly offers a ton of stuff you've already watched.

My wife always goes back to the same things over and over. Sometimes it's Band of Brothers, and I'm like "Awesome, but there's only so many times I can watch Toye and Guarnere get their legs blown off."

But then she'll put on New Girl for the 15th time through (I don't even think I'm exaggerating) and I want to put a gun in my mouth. I want to punch every one of those characters in the face. Except for Winston, he's cool.
