Cleanup needed on Hannah Swensen Titles

Someone has listed Murder, She Baked as a TV Mini-Series. It's not. It's a series of 5 connected TV movies. You can see the Hallmark poster for one of the movies which says "Now a Hallmark & Mysteries original movie".

I tried to change the title to make the episodes into TV movies but it gets rejected by the system as it doesn't have a "parent".

Also, Hannah Swensen Mysteries is not a TV Series. It is also a series of TV movies which follow the same character. Can we get these separated into individual titles?

Did you put the new title format to the "Episode Title" box? If you do it like this screenshot I took, there shouldn't be an issue: https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/conversations/data-issues-policy-discussions/separating-or-extracting-an-episode-from-a-series/645808d0a4c6a26bcd0d5406?commentId=64581932a4c6a26bcd0d5434

There are a lot of these Hallmark movies incorrectly moved under a series title (they were all actually initially correctly listed as seperate movies), someone at some point created a lot of series pages and moved standalone movies under these series (and still do). I had fixed a few a while ago but after seeing there are so much and someone is really dedicated to move these movies under different series pages, I didn't bother with more.

I knew there was something odd about changing TV episodes' type.

Thanks for the reminder here. I searched the help because I knew there was something not quite obvious about changing TV titles to movies. Everything seems to have been updated.

I learned the same from Peter, several months ago. I hadn't realized that there was technically still a way to do that which was much more obvious in the submission form back before 2018 or so.
