If you are getting a continuous "Loading", click on one of the other items in the left column of the Add-ons Manager (Extensions, Appearance, or Plugins). There is a minor glitch that should occur only on the first opening of the Add-ons Manager window/tab.

You can always look at new Add-ons and use the Search at the top of the page, by going to: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/
