Fourth episode of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms


Aidan posted a month ago

As I understand it only becomes available on HBO MAX the 6th, and is not airing on HBO until the 8th. 

We're explicitly following the HBO listing as it's a HBO show.

( See our long and complicated ownership policy for details ;) )

Kylie Cantrall in "Fear Night"


Magitroopa posted a month ago

Apologies, but was just looking for clarification as to why Cantrall's listing was removed from this episode. I definitely remember seeing a very short segment in the episode that she appeared in. Thanks.

EDIT: I've also just checked to make sure, it was after High Voltage's performance + the panel's responses (and consequently, just prior to Calla Lily's introduction + performance)

Ah,fli718 asked for her to be removed, I guess he was wrong. Re-added :)


Magitroopa posted a month ago

Ah, only just saw the post in the edit requests forum.

FYI @fli718 so you can see my explanation- she does indeed appear in the episode.

Got it. I wasn't sure since the episode had all new characters. Sorry for the trouble! Oh, and fyi I am a woman. Sorry again for all the trouble!

@Aidan Don't feel like spamming your talk page with a new thread, so instead replying here. FYI, I had changed the "Red, White and Clue Celebration of America's 250th Birthday" airtime to 21:00, as NASCAR delayed its airing by an hour. Fear Factor: House of Fear's "The Main Drag" was also aired an hour later due to this, which is why I changed that one from 21:02 to 22:02.

Just letting you know since I saw you did this edit. I've corrected it back to 21:00. If you need any further proof, I add plenty of stuff to The Masked Singer Wiki and I make sure I source info as best as possible there- you can see all the info (with sources) regarding the hour delay in the episode's trivia section here.

Sounds good, the change was just part of our daily synching to futon :)

Hazbin Hotel


Nikquest posted 3 months ago

Hi, Aidan! 

I don't understand why you've already changed the episode title twice to the wrong one. The episode on Amazon has a specific title: "Hazbin Hotel: Behind Closed Doors." Proof - https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/d2/0zlAhKIl_o.png  In this case, "Hazbin Hotel" isn't a generic title for several episodes to be discarded and ignored; no other episode in the two seasons includes those two words in their titles. So, the series title is being tied specifically to this episode, to make the rest of the sentence more specific... 

So, I've changed the title back to the Amazon one, and I hope you won't change it again :)

Hi, thanks for the heads up

Looks like this ep was the casualty of a script that strips the show name from episode titles

I've made a note of it so it wont happen again

 

Cheers :)

Tokyo Revengers

I see you've split Tokyo Revengers back to three seasons, but they don't have seasons, see official site with episodes from 1-50...

https://tokyo-revengers-anime.com/story/#/50

US often splits non-season anime into seasons or arcs, but that isn't official, they even split anime like Meitantei Conan, One Piece, Naruto, Boruto, Bleach and others.

Tokyo Revengers does have a bit gaps since it doesn't add fillers, but it's same as Bleach: Thousand Year War we have as a single season: 
- https://www.tvmaze.com/shows/80375/bleach-thousand-year-blood-war/episodes

The policy is not to add seasons simply because US splits anime into seasons (based on their own reasoning and deciding which episode is part of which season, since official anime doesn't always do that simply because anime has multiple arcs). Do you still think Tokyo Revengers should be split into seasons? Why go against official site?

Hi

Thanks for the heads up, I'm not sure what happened there. I see I've added images so it might've been synced to the image source at the time

I've changed it back to one season

Cheers


MAT13 posted 5 months ago

No problem. Ok, thanks.

BTW, Japanese anime sometimes keeps episode numbering without resetting them (i.e. Solo Leveling) so while there's obvious season 2 with new subtitle, they may still continue including next episode number (i.e. #13) in front of title, instead of restarting from 1. So both cases exist, but those kind of differences can be seen on their site.

For example Wind Breaker (https://wb-anime.net/) has episode 1-25 (ep 1-13 for S1, and 14-25 for S2) on official site and in the anime itself, but there are clearly two seasons and each has its own poster and even season 1 and 2 on official site despite episodes being grouped.

In US, I think every anime is split into seasons (probably to more easily group it on DVD releases or something), even though there is 1 season only, so just FYI to be aware of this ;))

Repeat Australian Story episodes added


BazzaG posted 5 months ago

Both of the Australian Story episodes you added are repeats:

https://www.tvmaze.com/episodes/2500385/australian-story-28x05-making-a-scene-claudia-karvan
https://www.tvmaze.com/episodes/2966765/australian-story-29x18-nick-cave-with-leigh-sale

Just because they are listed on TheTVDB website does not mean they should be listed/added to TVMaze (or visa-versa).

Mind you, both sites have heaps of errors.


Aidan posted 5 months ago

Both deleted

Looks like that Claudia Karavan is also listed as a 2025 episode on the shows webpage, so that's probably where the mistake came from


BazzaG posted 5 months ago

The ABC has frequently, in fact, I think always, added repeat episodes to the current season on iView. Given that I watch the show & have done so for decades, I usually spot the repeats even if the title has been slightly altered. Over the years there have been some "update" episodes ... personally I don't count these as repeats & the ABC has always indicated them as such.

June 21st was Easter Monday which explains the repeat episode. No idea why "Making a Scene" was repeated on July 21st.


Aidan posted 5 months ago

If you want I can unsync this show from tvdb, sounds like you have a better handle on it than we do :)


BazzaG posted 5 months ago

That's up to you and/or the TVMaze mods. What I find surprising is why would TVMaze consider TheTVDB, IMDB & other such sites as "masters" ... AND Visa-Versa, without doing so sort of validation? Having said that, perhaps that already happens but failed in this case ... I don't know.

Of course another fix would be to allow repeat episodes to be listed on the shows webpage ... particularly if the episode is also listed on the networks webpage for the show. Personally I don't have a issue with that as long as there is a option to add a "repeat" flag.

I was politely asking if you'll continue editing it so we don't have to worry about this one show

We only ever import from 2 places

The futon critic, which is a place that list press releases from all the American networks and streamers, so you can find all things USA and global streaming in one place without having to check 15 places or worry about geo-blocking. 

We also import some things from TVdb, more restrictively, of course. And it's mainly for shows that are not maintained regularly by any of our editors. Right now we have about ~19,000 shows listed that are still running and we obviously don't have the manpower to maintain all of those properly

We don't sync or take anything at face value from IMDB or any other user generated sites.

Of course another fix would be to allow repeat episodes to be listed on the shows webpage ... particularly if the episode is also listed on the networks webpage for the show. Personally I don't have a issue with that as long as there is a option to add a "repeat" flag.
