Create a mixed lists with content from TV Shows and Movies
I have seen that you guys are focusing on the new UI and filtering of the lists with the new V2 Beta. There is a simple thing you can do to save space and have better optimized lists and that is to create a mixed list with TV Shows and Movies content together.
Why? Because if I want to create a custom list about "TOP romance-comedy" genre, I would have to create 2 lists, one for TV Shows and other for movies, because in the TV Shows romance-comedy list, I would not be able to add movies, the same goes…
1 voteThanks for your detailed suggestion and kind words. 😊 While we totally understand the convenience of mixed lists, unfortunately, it's not feasible because TV Shows, Movies, and Anime each have unique filters, sorting options, and genre categorizations. Combining them would cause conflicts with how these rankings and data are organized.
Instead, we recommend using Custom List Collections! By simply adding "(TV Shows)" or "(Movies)" at the end of your list names, you can connect them seamlessly. This creates links between your lists, making navigation super easy while keeping the data separate.
You can check out our full tutorial on Custom List Collections here: https://docs.simkl.org/how-to-use-simkl/core-features/watchlists-and-custom-lists/custom-list-collections.
Hope this helps! Let us know if you have any more ideas. 😊

Addressing shows with variable running time per episode
I think running time per episode should be adjusted for TV shows and anime. This is because it only addresses either average or even minimum running time, thus making time spent watching not fully accurate. Running time should instead be calculated on a per episode basis, so as to address longer or shorter than average episodes.
1 voteThere is no data on a per-episode basis. In 98% of cases, each episode of the show is filmed with the same runtime.

Fix time "spent watching" tv shows
No matter what show I watch, each episode adds 40 minutes to my time "spent watching," even if the episode is less than 40 minutes long. The time spent watching should reflect how long episodes are, not just take the number of episodes watched and multiply by 40 minutes. Also, the shows in the "plan to watch" shouldn't count towards time spent watching since I haven't watched them yet.
1 voteTo get data on every episode to multiply by exact minutes would take a lot of resources and time to load the page will be a minute instead of 1 second. For that reason, we are using approximate calculations based on average episode times.

Not planned in the near future. Licence costs are in billion dollars per quarter to be able to provide such option. We don’t posses such budget right now. However we’re working towards being able to do that.
