Watch Together doesn't have queue support?

Recently updated to use Watch Together instead of an external app, SyncLounge, and the biggest issue I’ve found is that when trying to watch multiple TV episodes, you have to re-invite the other user to a new session for each episode. The queue feature seems to work for the person who queued the episode, but the other users aren’t brought to the new episode and are instead kicked out to the home screen.

Is this the intended behavior? It would be great to be able to start an episode and watch on through the series, or at least let me manually queue episodes. It seems the feature was intended more for movie watching, which is cool and all, but that’s just not what we do, so it’s left me feeling a bit disappointed.

I second this request.
Would really be nice to be able to queue things, or play through a show without having to re-invite for each episode.

I third this. Inviting people for each video is clunky, especially since a few platforms require the user to exit the app and rejoin to see new watch together requests. Watching a tv series (or webseries especially with their shorter runtimes) gets to be tedious.
