How did you do that? Please let it not be super manually…

Asking for my MCU, DCU, stargate, doctor who universe, etc etc etc. collections.

Well, it has limited usefulness, but you can work within certain constraints and do it in batches for certain shows. I don’t know if you’re aware of this, but with shows like Doctor Who, it will just play specials. If you let it play from episode to episode… Specials will play in order as they’re supposed to air, without any interference. I guess it’s just a Plex feature. no need to actually create a playlist. Unless you want to include torchwood, Sarah Jane adventures, etc..

Anyway, if you do a search for Star Trek, for example, and then sort the search results by air date, you can, for example, select all of Star Trek the next generation, Deep Space 9, and Voyager, and add that to a playlist after you have added enterprise, then the original series, then the animated series individually by series. You will have to add the movies in manually to that playlist, if you want the films in the playlist as well. I don’t think there were any shows after that whose seasons overlapped. Maybe a season or two of lower decks and strange new worlds, but I don’t thinks so.

This doesn’t work for Star Wars stuff because, although nothing overlaps (except for the Mandalorian and book of Boba Fett), there are several films that take place in between seasons of certain TV shows, and air date order is not the same as chronological order. All that Star Wars stuff is insanely all over the place as far as timeline.

Same with the MCU stuff. Air date and proper chronology are not the same, so it’s all mixed up.
