Expand the tagging system to include individual episodes

Something I would think of as fun is to expand the tagging system. Some of the things I am thinking of are to allow tagging of more of the crew beyond the writer and director. Can be hidden in an expand arrow as to not clutter the screen. But what I would like the most is to add actor credits for individual tv episodes. Not just the guest actors but the full cast for each episode and the top actors on the series page would be the most tagged in the series. That would make the top actors reflect the amount of episodes a person has. Clicking on an actor would show all episodes they are credited in, as it does with director and writer. Maybe metadata for that can be imported from IMDb? Please let me know if this is a good feature.

I would also love to add additional metadata to episodes. For example, if an episode is something seasonal, like a Christmas episode. Later, I could generate a smart playlist or something that would contain all of a particular type of episode across several shows.

One suggestion, for the op, though. Maybe this should be under “library-management” and not “server-windows” Not all of us are running a windows server.

Just found this and want it too. Can you edit to add library-management as a tag so more people see it?

I need this feature because I want a collection of Christmas / Thanksgiving / Halloween show episodes. I’ve done it manually in the past but the sorting is awful

I would love this expanded ability to tag individual episodes, solely so I could tag episodes of Looney Tunes with their featured characters. Some characters like Bugs are all over, but being able to tag and search to find all the episodes with lesser used characters like Marvin of Michigan Frog would be great :wink:

The recently added “Cast & Crew” hub is also available for seasons and episodes – allowing to show per episode cast and writers etc.

2023 clean-up: considered implemented
