Highlight movies and series based on status
Currently if you open up a list such as https://www.imdb.com/chart/toptv/ it doesn't immediately become clear that you watched a certain show unless you squint your eyes and look at the ratings given or the yellow icon for items on your Watchlist.
So now I'm using a userscript to give entries a color based on status:
🟩 = Watched/Rated
🟦 = Watchlist
🟥 = Dropped (Manually created list on https://www.imdb.com/profile/lists/)
That looks as followed on https://www.imdb.com/chart/toptv/:

Plus on Actor pages https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0050959/:

Userscript for those that are interested in trying it out:

This simple userscript offers a lot of clarity for me and I'm sure there are others that might find this kind of functionality useful on a website like IMDB. I wonder if there are any plans on adding something like this (or similar) that doesn't rely on 'hacky' userscripts that might break after IMDB changes something on the website.

Hi, frtazz:
Thank you very much for the userscript! It's very simple and does exactly what I was looking for. I don't know anything about JavaScript, but somehow I managed to modify it so it works with the Spanish (Spain) version of IMDb (simply by inserting “es-es/” into each URL string) and, while I was at it, I added a line so it also works with results from the main search bar.
