Season 5?

Shouldn't episodes 124 & 125 be down as Series 5 as the finale according to the page ended on Sept 19th 2011? 195.188.152.18 (talk)

I'm not following. What do you mean by "according to the page ended on Sept 19th 2011"? I don't understand what you mean. How do you know those episodes part of a fifth season? Nightscream (talk) 02:40, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The wikipedia page states the series finale was 19th September we have episodes for 26th either the date for the finale was incorrect or the two new episodes were for series 5? 195.188.152.18 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 15:38, 5 October 2011 (UTC).[reply]

Airdate order versus Production order

Regarding the order in which the episodes "Take the Money and Run" and "Silent but Chumlee" should be listed in the article, User:207.112.47.26 insists that "Silent" should be listed first and "Money" be listed subsequently, the reverse of the order in which they aired and I listed them when first writing them. The following is a message 207.112.47.26 left on my talk page:

hi nightscream, they may have aired it wrong, but if you go back and rewatch the episodes (history website when they put it up or if you have on demand) you will see chumlee reference in the video game deal, about his real life skills of shooting guns on the show. And they include the clip from the PREIVOUS episode of the hat bet. Therefore it would be after the episode not before. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.112.47.26 (talk) 23:10, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

Hi, 207.112.47.26. Thanks for your message. They cannot be aired "wrong", since airdate order is the order by which TV episodes are generally listed on Wikipedia. The fact that a clip from a future episode airs in a prior one doesn't mean that therefore, the one with the clip is listed after. TV shows often produce episodes in an order other than the order in which they air (much in the same way that feature films shoot scenes out of order). For example, Tasha Yar, the character played by Denise Crosby on Star Trek: The Next Generation, died in the episode "Skin of Evil". But in a scene near the end of the episode that aired right before that one, "Symbiosis", Tasha waves to the audience as she leaves the scene. This is because even though she died in "Skin of Evil", "Symbiosis" was filmed after it, and represented her actual last episode before she left the series. Now should the Wikipedia articles list "Symbiosis" before "Skin of Evil"? No. Because the convention is airdate order, not production order.

And if you prefer an example closer to reality television, I'll give one that I myself am a part of: I was the focus of the first filmed segment on the first day of shooting of Season 2 of Comic Book Men back in July, but they still haven't aired my segment, and presumably will do so when that show returns from the Winter break in February. Using your reasoning, should that episode be listed before all the other Season 2 episode that have already aired? Of course not. Again, it's airdate order that's the convention, not production order. Nightscream (talk) 23:33, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I understand what you are saying in regards to wikipedia history for television is more based upon "airdate segmental order vs production segmental orders". I won't be reverting it back because of that. And the first example was good enough. But, congratulations on being part of comic book men. I actually watch the show every now and then. And happy holidays to yourself and family. 207.112.47.26 (talk) 01:31, 16 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
