What if show changing channel after premiere

Damn, why is it never easy with Discovery?

First two episodes was aired on Discovery, then the show was moved to Investigation Discovery, where it's running now.

The way I see it there's two options:

1) Move show to ID, remove airdates from the first two episodes, use ID airdates for the rest of the season.

2) Leave show as it is, remove airdates from all episodes beyond first two.

I think the first option is a logical choice, but want a second opinion.

There's even more to this mess.

The name of the show is The Interrogation Room. This name is used in Discovery and ID schedules and on Discovery's webpage.

However, on the ID website the show is called Evil Talks: Chilling Confessions. But in the ID schedule it's still goes under the original name.

The first two episodes are listed only on Discovery. ID started the numeration anew, from episode 3 forward. I couldn't find any information, if the ID will be airing those two episodes or not.

I would set the show to ID and use ID airdates and leave the first two airdates blank.

The title is a tricky thing, but I would lean towards using the old name.

That's basically what I did :) If they decide to air those two episodes later we could always reorder them.

I also added the new name as an AKA, because people were requesting it couple of times.
