I submitted "Peal Harbor" with these 2 separate documentary episodes:
Pearl Harbor -- USS Oklahoma -- The Final Story airs at 8PM
Pearl Harbor -- Into the Arizona
Why do they not qualify Jan or David please?
If we allow such thing to be created, you basically say that we can invent series ourself, but just to clarify to you the reasons why I declined it.
PBS press states:
TUCSON, AZ - November 14, 2016 - Two new documentaries about the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, PEARL HARBOR – USS OKLAHOMA: THE FINAL STORY and PEARL HARBOR – INTO THE ARIZONA will air on PBS 6 on Wednesday, November 23, from 8-10 p.m. The special broadcasts will air in advance of the 75th anniversary of the December 7 attack.
Our policy states:
Made for TV movies with at least two parts, airing on the same network, all with a common and continuous plot (like "Sharknado")
Explicitly not allowed are: One-off Documentaries
Summaries:
PEARL HARBOR – USS OKLAHOMA: THE FINAL STORY is a one-hour film that looks at the attack on Pearl Harbor with a focus on the sinking of the USS Oklahoma. The film features first-person accounts from survivors who describe the attack in vivid, harrowing detail — from the moments just before the attack, through every detail of the terrifying hours, to the days afterward spent trying to rescue the sailors trapped aboard. But the story of the USS Oklahoma didn’t end on December 7th, 1941. For 75 years, families have waited for remains of “unknown” sailors to be identified and returned, and many questions still surround a lingering mystery: Why did the USS Oklahoma sink and capsize so quickly? PEARL HARBOR – USS OKLAHOMA −THE FINAL STORY will tell the stories of these unidentified sailors’ final homecoming, and dive into the mystery of the little-known Japanese “midget subs” that may have been responsible for the Oklahoma’s fate. WCVE PBS in Richmond, Virginia, is the presenting public television station.
PEARL HARBOR – INTO THE ARIZONA is a one-hour film about a landmark expedition to the USS Arizona, one of the most sacred war graves in the world. Since its sinking 75 years ago, no one has seen deep inside the ship, where more than 1,000 sailors lost their lives. This film follows an expedition team that uses an advanced ROV (remotely operated underwater vehicle) to explore the lower decks of the USS Arizona for the first time since it sank.
Explanation
According to PBS and our data policy, Pearl Harbor can not be added as a new series as they are talking about two one-off documentaries. On top of that, the two films each of a hour long are not a continuous and common plot like sharknado as explained above and both being produced by a different studios.
Even pbs has two seperate links for it.

Jan and David create the policies alongside the rest of the staff whose job it is to police the policies. Thomas has put time and effort into a more then adequate response, that doesn't deserve blatant ignorance from yourself.

Jan/David if you'd like to copy/pasta Thomas' response, apparently that's the only way this ignorant, rude man will accept any decisions moving forward, regardless of the amount of time someone puts into a explanation, especially when they've already gone offline for the night, like Thomas had.

I am very sorry Sir, but you are the rude one, not once but twice!

And your not rude by ignoring a massive post that Thomas has put together after going to bed? As if it's not enough that you parade around the forums spewing vile unnecessary messages about staff members on here, whether that be directly or indirectly. Ridiculous.

You are way out of line lying like that, I don't do that it's not nice and not allowed. I also would not stoop to calling anyone names either. If you are upset with me, I'm very sorry, it's understandable but your rudeness is not!

And your rudeness is? You've named a post double standards. Also I haven't lied once, if you'd like me to explain then I can.

I think this should end now by me saying I'm very, very sorry to you and also to Thomas. I was steaming hot under the collar and I stepped on my ..... so please excuse me I shall except what you both have said as site Gospel and I'll now crawl back into the hole from whence I came and SHUT my Big Fat Stupid mouth!
