When we have a big list and don't know what to watch, choose a random item can be the solution. That's what RandomTV does! The extension will pick a random item from any list on Trakt.
You just have to click on the Random button on the list you want a random item. Then, RandomTV will show the item in a modal, or highlight in the page or even redirect. You can set different ways to show the chosen item.
RandomTV also offers one more advanced thing: in lists with more than one pages (120+ items), all the items can be choose, even the ones not in the current page. This works because of the use of the API.
