Just noticed that as you can see NCIS is half watched from my iPad and when I look at Plex Web there is no Continue Watching on the top like there used to be. So, I guess I will have to wait another few years for this to maybe get fixed. MacMini Web Ver: 3.44.1 Server Ver 1.13.0.5023 ---

_One step forward, two steps back_ seems to have become Plex’s motto these last few years. I can confirm that on my end the Continue Watching row is gone too. ---

For TV shows continue watching is redundant anyway. Why have the same show appear twice to enable the ability to continue watching it? I wish continue watching and all other rows/hubs would be optional rather than required but Plex does not think their users are smart enough are smart enough to handle choice. ---

> Plex does not think their users are smart enough are smart enough to handle choice. That is exactly the problem with Plex nowadays, lack of customizability in every regard. ---

I’m fairly certain this is the correct behavior. On Deck will show partially watched TV Show episodes, Continue Watching is for Movies/Videos. This avoids redundancy as mentioned above. ---

Nope, sometimes works, sometimes not. ![](https://sea1.discourse-cdn.com/plex/uploads/default/original/3X/b/4/b47a1bebd7c9766efb0d7f949a9fbc5b31e07a96.png) ---

@Anijake Hmm, I would say it’s more likely what you show above is in error. I’ll forward it along though. Thanks. ---

Why? That is how it works on ATV. Why would it be any different on another client. ---

@Anijake I was incorrect about the TV Shows apparently, here are the ways this works: 1. On Deck is for TV Shows only. 2. Continue Watching will show for Movies and TV Shows. 3. The window for Continue Watching is 7 days, after that it will be dropped off. Perhaps #3 is what you ran into here? How long ago was it that you watched that episode? ---

Nope, as per first screen shot, that was the next day. ---
