I am wondering if there already is a feature or option to add a list of tv shows to a playlist and have a method of playing them 1 from each title before going to the next episode of the first title.  
For example:

Given:  
Show 1 Show 2 Show 3  
Ep 1 Ep 1 Ep 1  
Ep 2 Ep 2 Ep 2

So the the playlist option I would like would play through the list as Sh1Ep1 Sh2Ep1 Sh3Ep1 Sh1Ep2 Sh2Ep2 Sh3Ep2 and so on.

This might be done as an another option in additional to straight Play, and Shuffle options.

Would such a thing be possible?

I have a suggestion for a feature that would accomplish the behavior you are suggesting [here](https://forums.plex.tv/t/absolute-episode-order/622302).

> I’m surprised it was not already asked but, when you are on the page with your whole selection of TV show, pressing random should play random series IN ORDER. Which mean I should be able to watch show like I would on normal TV, Right now when I’m using this random function it play not know random show, but also random episode of said random show. Ideally I’d like to be able to watch, for example, futurama Season 2 episode 4, then after that, the Simpson Season 5 episode 12, and so on. Basically…
