Ratings: Episode Title without Series Name on Activity page, Most Recently Rated

On this page
http://www.imdb.com/user/ur20449693/
right now I see this:

And I wonder what the heck is Parts 8 - 12?
The answer is they are episode titles without their series name.

Since the recent (Dec 6?) update(s?), we've gotten just episode titles without their series name in a lot of places. Some have been repaired, some not. Just wanted to report this as one more place that's not yet fixed.

Hello,
Looking at the list of episodes for Twin Peaks (2017 - ) it looks like they have just been given episode titles of "Part 1", "Part 2" etc.

So that's all that shows in your Ratings list. It seems to be showing the most recent 5 ratings that you've given

It seems as though they only ever show the episode title in the page at http://www.imdb.com/user/ur20449693/ and similar for each user. They do show the full series name at http://www.imdb.com/user/ur20449693/ratings

This was NOT MY Activity page. I'm looking at someone else's. So seeing partial information like episode title with out the series title is NOT useful, even though I'm able to click through to see what it really is. It's a poor re-implementation of prior functionality, and needs to be fixed as some other instances of it (partial title display) have been.

Here's one place where it's been fixed since the update:
https://getsatisfaction.com/imdb/topics/update-to-list-pages?topic-reply-list[settings][filter_by]=a...

And here's one that's pending (next-to-last bullet of the 8 bugs): 
https://getsatisfaction.com/imdb/topics/update-to-list-pages?topic-reply-list[settings][filter_by]=a...

So thanks for the effort, but I was not asking for an explanation. As I said in my final paragraph above:
Since the recent (Dec 6?) update(s?), we've gotten just episode titles without their series name in a lot of places. Some have been repaired, some not. Just wanted to report this as one more place that's not yet fixed.
I figured this was a fairly obscure location and needed someone to focus attention on it.

We have not made any changes here, sorry.  It has always displayed like this so we are moving this over to the "Idea" type.
