I tried it and I couldn't get it to work with a page not found error.
I dug a little deeper and found that if I checked the ID myself en use the old code it worked.

My ID was: fd272551 which I got from the source (http://i.imgur.com/eKS0NiV.png)

so using the following code I got it to work:

// how_much_netflix.js // A script that looks through your Netflix viewing activity and // tallys up how much time you've spent watching Netflix // // INSTRUCTIONS TO USE: // Open https://www.netflix.com/WiViewingActivity and the developer console // Copy and paste this script into the developer console and press enter // (function() { var fetchAllViewedItems = function() { var deferred = jQuery.Deferred(); var viewedItems = []; (function fetchPage(page) { jQuery.getJSON('https://www.netflix.com/api/shakti/fd272551/viewingactivity?pg=' + page).done(function(json) { viewedItems = viewedItems.concat(json.viewedItems); console.log('Fetched %s viewed items', viewedItems.length); if (json.viewedItems.length == json.size) { fetchPage(++page); } else { deferred.resolve(viewedItems); } }).fail(deferred.reject); })(0); return deferred.promise(); }; fetchAllViewedItems().then(function(viewedItems) { var totalTime = viewedItems.reduce(function(runningTotal, viewedItem) { return runningTotal + viewedItem.bookmark; }, 0); var days = Math.floor(totalTime / 60 / 60 / 24); var hours = Math.floor((totalTime / 60 / 60) % 24); var minutes = Math.round((totalTime / 60) % 60); console.log('According to your viewing history, you have cumulatively watched %i days, %i hours and %i minutes of Netflix', days, hours, minutes); }); })();

netflix.contextData.services.data.api
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'services' of undefined
at :1:20
