Series released on three different tv-channels

Geheimnisvolle Orte: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3196314/reference/?ref_=ttep_ov_bk   

The seasoning is a bit off and difficult here.

The series was first released by rbb in 2004 and is still ongoing.

In 2012 Das Erste started releasing the series with some episodes from the rbb-series and some new ones.

Then the WDR came along in 2014 and did the same as Das Erste did. WDR even mixed in some of the Das Erste episodes.

Episode S1.E1 "Hitlers Reichskanzlei" is a perfect example of this problem:

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3196314/episodes/?season=1&ref_=ttrv_ov_epl_sn 

It was released as the first episode of the 2012 series by Das Erste. That's why the date doesn't fit in.

I see two possible solutions:

1) Make 3 tv-series

2) go with the numbering of the first series and leave the other episodes without numbers.

Kind regards

Jochen

Hi jochen_bauer-

If this is the same series but was shown on 3 different TV channels, we will list the series from the original and/or as how the series was initially released. Therefore, in this case, it will be solution 2. 

Cheers!

OK. I'll do a little more research and take care of it as suggested.

The rbb-series has over 110 episodes and the ARD-series about 50. There are only 5 episodes with the same title therefore I will create a new series for the ADR-series and move the episodes over there.

I couldn't find any episode for the WDR-series in the imdb.
