A Note on Episode Numbering


Recommended Posts

A tip of the hat to the poster who pointed out the episode numbers were incorrect. It led down the rabbit hole of the TLC website versus what is listed as the description in provided by my satellite provider. It seems the norm for TLC to give different numbering to cable/satellite than what they list on their website. Thanks TLC! Since the on-screen descriptions are ephemeral, for now we'll go with the TLC website one. The episodes have been renumbered according to the TLC website. Until they renumber it again.

Ack, sorry guys! I got caught up in some real life family stuff and completely forgot. I'll set something up shortly. I'm so, so sorry.

How do I make a 2 part episode title into one topic title?

It should look like "S01.E01: First Episode Title / S01.E02: Second Episode Title YYYY.MM.DD".  Use the episode format checkbox, put the first episode number in the episode number post, and type the 2nd after the slash.

Folks, a topic for the episode airing tonight (30 Jul 2018) has been posted. I used the onscreen guide from DirecTV because the online list of episodes is not what is listed on my tv. (TLC really is just the worst)

Of course, if you don't see an episode topic, starting one is fine, but please be aware that we no longer have the episode format check box, so the season and episode number have to be entered manually. Also, we are no longer adding the air date to the topic title. That would be why I didn't put put the date.

I just edited the episode topics according to what TLC says. TLC changed the season number half way through the season. Because reasons? Given how screwed up TLC is about episodes and numbering, don't worry too much about getting the right number. It can be fixed. And undoubtedly TLC will change it in a few months anyway because it's fun messing with us.

I hate TLC.
