The "Episode Listing (broadcast order)" article has been labelled the following levels:

- I have no idea. But apparently so are they doing. Here is the press release. I inspected the numbering for the episodes from the films, they are apparently a season each, which further increases the silliness.

- Hm, apparently, scrap the press release, their schedule seems to indicate they have revised their position and are airing them in the correct order as one broadcast season. --SvipTalk 15:44, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

Season 6 or season 7?
- Continuing from Talk:Season 5#Season #0.
I think this talk page would be most appropriate. Personally, I think we should make a decision quickly. Let me sum it up for those not in the know:
Comedy Central considers the first broadcast season of season 6 to be broadcast season 6. We consider that to be season 5. Indeed, Comedy Central seems to not label the airings of season 5 as a broadcast season: it appears in its scheduling as 'season 0'.
However, I do not think season 0 is their actual name for it, I think it is just what the label things 'out of seasons'. So we have two options:
A. Stay the course (ignore Comedy Central's labellings and continue with our current method).
B. Shift broadcast season 7 and 8 to 6 and 7 respectively. Rename the broadcast season of season 5 to something appropriate (e.g. 'film season').
If we pick B, we still have some other decisions to make:
- What should we rename season 5's broadcast season to?
- Should we just remove it entirely (even though it did air)?
Let the debate commence! --Sviptalk 13:33, 26 June 2010 (CEST)
- I vote B with the heading "2008 - 2009 specials". (And I'll note that we'll probably end up moving the other part of 6ACV into 6 later on)
- Also, check this debate out on Wikipedia on the matter. --Sviptalk 02:51, 27 June 2010 (CEST)
- I'm not sure I understand B. I think that's my vote. I think it should be Season 6, as so far this wiki has gone with the production season.-Not awedfrgt
- We are discussing what broadcast season to treat season 6 as. Right now, we are treating it as broadcast season 7 and 8. We do this, because they are technically the 7th and 8th broadcast seasons aired. However, some people will argue that season 5 (the films split up) was not a broadcast season, as it was just airing each film on the same day without much difference than watching the films themselves; so they were more like 'specials'.
- In short, we are discussing which route we should take. --Sviptalk 12:10, 27 June 2010 (CEST)
