Changing Seasons column to Episode count[edit]

I propose changing the Seasons column to Episode count. Currently the column does not cover minis, which dont have seasons, so Episode count would be a better fit for those too. Picsovina (talk) 13:48, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree - (copying part of my answer from Talk:List of Disney+ original programming) I'd argue that the number of seasons a show has tells one more about the show than the number of episodes, as story arcs and show longevity are reflected in seasons. 1 season of 10 episodes means something different than 2 seasons of 5 episodes each. I'd suggest a compromise of sorting miniseries by "1XX" instead of "0XX" for sorting issues. Noting that this change would have to be implemented on every programming list page, which largely use the Season column with the [season][episode count] sorting format, not just this one.Nisf (talk) 14:06, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Nisf: Can you maybe paste here an example table just for easier visualization? Picsovina (talk) 15:15, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Picsovina:Sure, so for this sample table, if you sort by Season, the miniseries 11.22.63 appears higher than The Premise despite having more episodes but the same number of "seasons" because the sorting value is "008":
Title Seasons
East Los High 4 seasons, 61 episodes
11.22.63 8 episodes
The Path 3 seasons, 36 episodes
The Premise[a] 1 season, 5 episodes

But replacing the sorting value for 11.22.63 with "108" would group it together with the single-season shows and sort it below The Premise.

Title Seasons
East Los High 4 seasons, 61 episodes
11.22.63 8 episodes
The Path 3 seasons, 36 episodes
The Premise[a] 1 season, 5 episodes

OK, thanks for this. I get it that its more prestigious if a show has more seasons than many episodes during a single season, but from a sorting perspective it would be a nightmare if we used the season number prefix. What do you do if a show reaches 100 episodes or more? Considering this I dont support either of these choices, but in case there would be overwhelming consensus in favour of the season prefix, I would prefer the second option.

@PicsovinaThis has been done before – tables that have shows with more than 100 episodes (or more than 10 seasons) include a 0 placeholder for the extra digit. You can see the table in List of programs broadcast by AMC#Drama for an example (where The Walking Dead and Fear of the Walking Dead both have more than 100 episodes).

Merge Continuations with Actual Originals?[edit]

Can we please merge the Continuations with Originals. Dividing the originals into Drama, Comedy, Animation and Adult Animation makes sense. But then segregating it further into Continuations and then dividing continuations into Drama, Comedy and Animation may make it more cluttered or complex. I mean we can put a note in a column saying that this specific project was a continuation from Season no X. List will be more streamlined that way. Thoughts? --Shoxee1214 (talk) 10:01, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't received any response yet. I'll be updating the list accordingly. Please let me know if anyone has any objection. Shoxee1214 (talk) 20:07, 12 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Echo releases[edit]

Echo will have a simultaneous release on Hulu and Disney+ but will leave Hulu in April. Should the series be included in the table or removed? Mediafan200 (talk) 17:44, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
