As of now, options for getting episode ordering are: The Movie Database (Aired) TheTVDB (Aired) TheTVDB (DVD) TheTVDB (Absolute) However in some cases the streaming order makes more sense. Could you please add it? Thanks a lot. ---

There’s a feature request to support alternate orders from TVDB/TMDB. You can vote for it if you wish. > [@Support Alternate Order / Flexible Seasons (TVDB) and Episode Groups (TMDB)](https://forums.plex.tv/t/support-alternate-order-flexible-seasons-tvdb-and-episode-groups-tmdb/537737): > > Recently, TVBD implemented a [feature](https://www.thetvdb.com/blog/something_new) called “Flexible Seasons” which is really useful for shows like [Money Heist](https://thetvdb.com/series/la-casa-de-papel) or [Chilling Adventures of Sabrina](https://thetvdb.com/series/chilling-adventures-of-sabrina) where the most commonly used order is not the original order. Currently, the API does not support this feature, but I would really like to see this feature implemented into Plex as soon as possible. Edit 2020-04-08: Episode Groups TMDB has implemented a similar method which they call “Episode Groups”. Those are already available via API ([https://de…](https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/tv-episode-groups/get-tv-episode-group-details) ---
