Hi, I like including TV specials in my Up Next, but it’s been very inconsistent for months on whether or not they show.
Sometimes they do, sometimes they don’t. There doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason as to why. Right now they are not showing across iOS or the web. Sometimes they’ll show on web but not iOS, or vice versa. Sometimes they’ll show on both. Sometimes manually searching a show and marking a Special episode as watched will “fix” it so they start showing again. Sometimes it’s the opposite, marking something as watched from Up Next will cause them to disappear on a refresh.
I have the option selected in settings to show Specials, so this must be a bug, even though it’s been going on for months. Is there anything I should be doing differently? Anything I can do to “force” a fix when I run into this?
Edit: When I wrote this post, they were not showing. Now, 3 minutes later, I refreshed the dashboard and they’re showing again. This is not out of the ordinary to have it change this quickly.
Also, for additional context, these are not new specials, they’re specials that in some cases aired many years ago, so this shouldn’t have anything to do with air dates etc.
Edit 2: And now, ~30-40 mins later, they’re gone again.
