How do i stop it playing specials first ahead of S01E01

If it is a TV show marked as played can't you just go to the first page of the series and click on the Played check mark to mark everything as unplayed?

The question is about a whole library, not just a series.

Every library has, in the web interface, a three dot menu and from that you can mark the whole thing as played/unplayed. The only real catch is that to mark a whole library unplayed you must first mark it played as there appears to be no option to mark a library with some played and some unplayed items as unplayed until you first mark it played.

The other part of that is that you need to let it finish before trying to toggle the status. That is the whole library must be fully marked played before you can mark it unplayed. That takes some time (about 10 minutes) the last time I did it for a library of about 900 shows (38000 episodes). 

The task is simple but it is neither easy to find or understand. I really wonder why there is no "mark unplayed" option in the three dot menu unless every item in the library is marked played first.

I decided to test this and it appears that the option to mark played is still there and working correctly however it does not appear that the three dot menu for libraries toggles "mark played" to "mark unplayed" even if every show is marked fully played so what I said earlier is only half true. Sorry for the misinformation.
