Just a little reminder to those using the SeriesWatch page:

Lost is on tonight, even though it won't show up on the page.

There is a long standing bug that will prevent it from showing up, but don't forget to record it anyway.

I've built up enough [whatever] points to submit changes to the TV.com episode database. I had intended to fix the LOST S02E201 "bug", but couldn't find a good alternative.

Every episode in the TV.com database must have a numeric episode code. So, the first "special" episode of a season can get the 00 code. But when a second "special" episode airs, another number must be chosen. I believe 201 is a good solution until TV.com allows episodes to be tagged as S1 and S2, (or something similar) to separate them from the in-sequence episodes.

Instead of creating our own database and reinventing the wheel, let's just find effective ways of working around it.

What's wrong with putting it in 'Other Episodes' just like 'Lost: The Journey'?

Even show editors can't put episodes in "Other". You have to request the staff members to do it.
