Customizable episode order

tolham wrote 7 years ago: 1

Some TV shows air their episodes out of order and it's up to the viewer to figure out the correct or best order. For example: Firefly. TV maze has the episodes listed by their original airdate, but that's not the right order to watch them. It would be great to have a feature where users could make their own personal list and arrange the episodes how they see fit. Perhaps we could even make our lists public and have the community discuss and/or vote on the most accurate or appropriate watching order.

Another example is Arrested Development - season 1. The DVD order of episodes 5 - 8 are different than the original aired order.

A different example is Battlestar Galatica. There is a huge blog post from 2010 (http://thunderpeel2001.blogspot.com/2010/02/battlestar-galactica-viewing-order.html) that presents a meticulously recommended watching order, with further tweaks from commenters. I highly recommend that fans of BSG read that blog post. TV Maze seems like the perfect place to have this kind of a discussion.

I see! But that's been pending for two years :(

Also, I think it's important that the feature allows for customization, per the BSG example above.

The more people that vote, the more TVmaze will try to prioritise it as there's only so much free time available.
