Continue Watching is not showing Specials episodes

[TheClaus 15]

I was watching V(tvdb:76354) and I was watching the specials first. I would stop the episode in middle and when I came back to watch it the episode wasn't in the Continue Watching section. If I went into the series it would show the episode and it was at the right timestamp.

Something about this series is I only have the specials. I don't care for season 1 so figured why have it take up space.

Is this because I don't have a Season 1 folder and episodes?

I believe so, yes. With the season folder the structure understands that there would be a next up consideration. Without that it might be seen as just a special without any context of what comes before or after it.

Thanks @speechlesI was able to split them into their own shows and they now show properly.

Specials can show in continue watching if they have the airs before/after episode values set in the metadata editor.
