The Impossible Stream Episode

The Impossible Stream

I deleted the comments about the season numbering because the trolling/spamming got out of hand. If you do still feel like discussing the season numbering, please use the forums instead so we can reserve the comment section for actual comments about the episodes.

But why not?  I have several TV shows that I have collected all the episodes shown so far.  Whether I have watched them or not is immaterial.  I like to know that I have a copy of them and TVMaze is the easiest way for me to do that.  I can, and do, keep either a spreadsheet or text files but It is not so easy to do that.  That is why I have 2 accounts here.  My main one is where I keep my watched list and shows I want to watch.  That is a paid account.  Then I have this one for the sole purpose of keeping track of the shows I have acquired.  Just seems like more work than it needs to be. 

PS.  It is not impossible to watch something without acquiring it first.  There many shows I watch on TV and marked them here as 'watched' but that I have never acquired and don't keep a copy.

I think I understand your use case, but I'll have to be blunt: rewriting the system to track "acquired" and "watched" statuses simultaneously at this point would be an immense effort so that's not very likely to happen anymore.

All nice upgrades but the one I need most still isn't available.  I'd live to click (and highlight) both the acquired and watched button if it applies.  I have to maintain a whole separate login here just keep track of the episodes that a have in my collection.  Because once I've watched them, the 'acquired' icon goes blank.  I don't know why this ability wasn't there from the beginning.

The idea is that "watched" supersedes "acquired", since it's impossible to watch something without acquiring it first. Therefore the system doesn't support tracking those two separately.
