Question about short Genre

The Problem with that is that I cant add genres to individuals Episodes. When trying to edit it  I only get Correct/Delete and it says no existing data.

Hi @valkyrslayer​ -

Just to clarify some previous miscommunication on our end, we currently don't allow Genres to be added to individual episodes (this is why you aren't seeing the option to add them). Furthermore, the parent series page should only include Genres relevant to, and describe the entire series, so for example if the series has 12 episodes and only 3 of them are short, this genre should not be added.

Unfortunately, we don't yet have a working solution for use cases where there are variable running times for episodes, or for example, in cases where a banner series airs a variety of different types of shows.  If you have an idea of how this gap could be addressed I encourage you to post an Idea thread in the community for staff to track and other members can comment and vote.

@Michelle​ As has been practiced for a long time, IF an episode is of a different genre the the series, itself, that episode can be acknowledged with a keyword.  For example, a Western series may have an episode that is a Musical, so that episode can be noted with the “musical-episode” keyword. Similarly, if a series has an episode that is a “Short,” that can be cited with the “short-episode” keyword.
