"Friends Only" filter on Watch tab not working

To add onto this. It only showed me the games of people on my friend's list that were set to invisible. I could see that they were in this menu, but when I check my friend's list they are "offline."
 
I also noticed this, couldn't see friend's games but if I hit the "previous" button on the menu (even with the "Friends Only" box checked), it would show me featured matches that still were not my friend's games. Hitting the "next" button did nothing. I can confirm the friend that was playing was online on Steam and actively in a game (ended up streaming it to me in Discord).
 
It may be due to the spectator list view having too many matches, and your friend's match is too far into the match list pulled from the backend? I had the same problem last night and the match list said something like "2000+ live matches" at the bottom.
