Topic: Robot Chicken

I've noticed that episode numbering for season 11 of https://next-episode.net/robot-chicken is off by 1.  There seems to be disagreement between IMDB and the Adult Swim Website.
"May cause and excess of Ham" should be episode 18 not episode 17 as its listed today.

The source of the issue is that the episode "The Bleepin' Robot Chicken Archie Comics Special" is counted as episode 1 of season 11 on the adult swim website but IMDB doesn't count it as part of season 11.

Re: Robot Chicken

Thetvdb does count it as episode 1 https://thetvdb.com/series/robot-chicke … fficial/11
Tvmaze does not https://www.tvmaze.com/seasons/127259/r … 1/episodes

So it'll be a choice on which service to scrape the data off off

...where did I put that rat's ass I could give?

Daemons are benevolent or benign nature spirits, beings of the same nature as both mortals and gods, similar to ghosts, chthonic heroes, spirit guides, forces of nature or the gods themselves.

Re: Robot Chicken

How does this site work?  If next-episode.net doesn't match adultswim I would say that next-episode is wrong and should be corrected.  Or does next-episode simply scrape data off tvmaze.com or some other inaccurate source and there's little that can be done about next-episode?

Yes, Daemonius mentioned our source sites. It's probably not possible (and for sure not practical) to do it differently.

Re: Robot Chicken

I find it hilarious to think of anything cartoon network associated being accurate after all the years it spent playing 'fool my dvr'. That said, my backlog of shows to watch has 2 ep 13s, a 15 and 2 ep 16s, all of which are different episodes big_smile

Re: Robot Chicken

Okay.  I understand.  I was asking more to see if i could pursue the issue at the source.  I know tvdb is community maintained but I’m not familiar with tvmaze.
