Somebody changed "Do Not Despair About Our Country" to episode 78 and "Dinner Party: The Best Relationships" to episode 79, and added another episode for episode 77 for November 10th, but there was no episode on November 10th. There were only two episodes last week, on Wedneday (the 9th) and Friday (the 11th). There are new episodes on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays but not always EVERY day. "Episode 77" should be removed and the two episodes after it should have the episode numbers lowered by one.

Episode 77 even has guest cast and summary added to it, are you absolutely sure it did not air ?

Seems like something weird happened somehow. I added the episode "Do Not Despair About Our Country" last week when it was added to Netflix, which is the 77th episode, and put the summary and guest cast on it too, but now they're both gone from that episode and appear on "Episode 77" instead which has the wrong air date too (there was no episode on the 10th)... and the summary and guest cast are gone from the "Dinner Party" episode after it as well, and I added that episode and information today.

Why episode 1x01 of Incorporated has been set as released on 16/11 instead of left as scheduled on 30/11? It's a pre-air released on youtube and network website, has not been broadcasted on tv.

I just quote the policy about airdates: "The date this episode premiered (was first made available)... If a show premieres on a Web Channel like Netflix and is aired on a TV Network later on, the Netflix premiere dates must be used."

It was first made available on Nov, 16 at syfy.com, which is a legit web channel.

However, i'd left this decision for the HC.

I think that applies if that web channel is the "main network" of that show. But if it's a one off in advance of the official broadcasting on another "main network", I think it's another story.

Ok, I will delete Episode 77 now, only thing you need to do is to add the guest cast again, sorry :(

Yep, this is correct :)
I will change it.

I think the policy needs some clarification in this matter. Since many of the shows (SyFy and HBO in particular) are often premiered at the official site weeks before broadcast. So policy should say something like "except early premieres at the official website"...

The source (a specific Network or a specific Web Channel) of episode airdates must be consistent within a season. (...) Or; a show's pilot premieres on a Web Channel after which the rest of the season premieres on a Network. In that case, the Network's airdates must be used for all of the episodes.

Is this because of limitations of the site software/DB or is it just policy for policys sake? Accuracy, IMHO, trumps policy however software limits trumps accuracy.

Moreover, it was set to Global, but with NBC airdates.
Fixed.
To whom it may concern: despite that Chicago Med is aired on Global a day earlier, it's not a co-production between NBC and Global, so it should stay as NBC show.

Thanks!
