Status :: Returning xxxx

SilverSurfer wrote 7 years ago: 1

When a show has been renewed and a new season added but there is no info yet on when the new season begins, the status is not updated.

I think in cases where a new season has been added the show info should reflect the renewal with a "Status: Running; Returning TBA" addition.

ymmv. Thanks, as always, for reading.

In the current implementation the season could not be added without the year. Or rather it could be added, but it will be deleted automatically in a day or two.

Why? If we know a series has been renewed but they haven't yet set a year/date for it's return ... it's still renewed. It seems to be a case of deleting valid data.

Beats me. I'm just stating the obvious :)

On the other hand, the status "Running" means that the show is...well...running, and will be returning eventually :)

So, my take away from this is if you have a show renewed, but no return date is yet set, just make a best guess to avoid the automatic deletion of the new season entry. Gotcha. :)
