episode count too high
On this page
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075584/fullcredits
Robert Urich appears to be out of order, because the count shows 8 episodes. But when expanded, he only has 7:

When I do a search, only 7 are found as well:
https://www.imdb.com/search/title/?title_type=tv_episode&series=tt0075584&role=nm0001810&view=simple
This happens on Chrome, Firefox and MS Edge, all on Windows 10.

Thank you for your message.
Filmographies are ordered automatically on the site.
Whenever a filmography page is displayed, the order of the credits/categories is based on the number of titles in each one.
For example, if someone is credited as follows:
2 titles as director
5 titles as cinematographer
1 as actor
Their listing will display the following order:
1) cinematographer
2) directing
3) acting
Please note that TV episodes count as individual titles when counted.
Credits within each category are then listed in reverse chronological order (most recent ones at the top) based on the earliest known release date of each title.
When two categories have the same number of titles/credits, the one with the most recent credit appears first.
This automatic ordering isn't therefore meant to imply anything about the relative importance of the various credits. It's just a technical convention.
This is a software-dictated function which applies to all filmographies/credits stored in IMDb. For this reason, we regret that we cannot change the order of credits on a specific filmography page.
Please also note the above ordering rule only applies to filmographies displayed on IMDb.com. Filmography pages on IMDbPro.com allow greater flexibility and users can choose to see credits sorted in chronological order, by production status, by job, by title type (i.e. films, TV shows), by credited name etc.
Thank you for your understanding and please let us know if we can offer further assistance.
