Specifically, I’m looking for filtering by studios.
Yet, it would also be great to have filtering by creator, director, writer, actor.
It would even be okay if it wasn’t a dropdown and if I had to enter this info myself
Additionally, I want these filters on all pages (search, watchlist, calendar, tv shows, movies), especially in the calendar.
This is partially support already. When viewing a TV show or movie page, the studio name is a link that loads up the popular page filtered for that studio. The URL can be changed to use the slug (i.e. lowercase and - instead of spaces) for any studio. I will add support to filter the calendar in a similar way.
The reason this isn’t in the advanced UI is because we currently have 15k TV studios and 132k movie studios, those are way too many items to work in a standard filter field.
It took a while, but I found a good way to add this to the advanced filter UI. This will be in the next website update and the studios will be a dynamic option that will show results as you type in the field. Update will be out tomorrow.
