{Watchlist Bug or Expected Behavior?} - Shows added to Watchlist keep prompting to add to Watchlist

Apologies in advance, but I could not find any posts, reports, or discussions about this, so I wanted to report what I have been experiencing ever since the Watchlist launched. If this has been discussed anywhere, I couldn’t find it and would appreciate someone showing me what I might have missed.

  1. Shows continually prompting to “Add to Watchlist” even though they are already added:
    1. Open Plex, either on web or Roku, select “Watchlist”.
    2. Select anything, regardless of whether it is on the Recommended tab or the Watchlist tab.
    3. Even though the content was accessed through the Watchlist page, the “Add to Watchlist” button appears on random items, NOT the “Remove from Watchlist” even though I JUST ACCESSED IT FROM THE WATCHLIST PAGE.
    4. When I hit “Add to Watchlist”, it will change to “Remove from Watchlist”, but when I leave/close the app or browser tab, and come back, it says “Add to Watchlist” again.
    5. No matter how many times I select “Add to Watchlist”, it keeps showing “Add to Watchlist” even though it is right there, in the Watchlist section.
  2. Shows in the Watchlist do not show up under “Recently aired”.
    1. Current example is Wednesday from Netflix. The new season just aired. I have it on my Watchlist (even though it keeps asking to add it, refer to issue #1). I can only assume that Plex still keeps asking me to add it to my Watchlist, that is why the show not appearing in the “Recently aired” row (because it doesn’t think it is in the Watchlist.
    2. This is compounded by the fact that, since it does not show up in the “Recently aired” and not considered in the Watchlist, even though I marked the first season as watched, the new season is not showing up in the “Continue Watching” row on the Watchlist page under the Recommended tab (which I know is different from the universal “Continue Watching”).

Thanks in advance.
