• determine that the requested video content item belongs to a media content group from a plurality of media content groups;
• in response to determining that the requested video content item belongs to the media content group, determine that the media content group includes a plurality of video content items that have been grouped into a first sub-group of video content items and a second sub-group of video content items;
• and
• in response to the request to present the video content item, cause the requested video content item to be presented in a video window while concurrently presenting selectable elements that represent each of the first sub-group of video content items and the second sub-group of video content items from the media content group, wherein a first selectable element of the selectable elements represents a first plurality of video content items in the first sub-group and wherein a second selectable element of the selectable elements represents a second plurality of video content items in the second sub-group.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing computer executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform a method for recommending video content to users, the method comprising:

• receiving a request to present a video content item;
• determining that the requested video content item belongs to a media content group from a plurality of media content groups;
• in response to determining that the requested video content item belongs to the media content group, determining that the media content group includes a plurality of video content items that have been grouped into a first sub-group of video content items and a second sub-group of video content items;
• and
• in response to the request to present the video content item, causing the requested video content item to be presented in a video window while concurrently presenting selectable elements that represent each of the first sub-group of video content items and the second sub-group of video content items from the media content group, wherein a first selectable element of the selectable elements represents a first plurality of video content items in the first sub-group and wherein a second selectable element of the selectable elements represents a second plurality of video content items in the second sub-group.
