Reported Problem for The Invisible Man
publicado por superboy97STAFFMOD el 29 de octubre de 2020 a las 14:14
Item: The Invisible Man
Language: en-US
Type of Problem: Duplicate
Extra Details: The episodes S01E00 and S01E01 are duplicates of https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/725056-the-invisible-man?language=en-US
EDIT : I have fixed the pilot duplicates, but an episode order problem remains: The German and French lists aren't in the same order as the English list. The problem is caused by the episode titled "Sight Unseen" and its airdate. On Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Invisible_Man_(1975_TV_series)#Episodes), the date listed is October 20, 1975 and on IMDB (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0072515/episodes?ref_=tt_ov_epl) the date is December 15, 1975 and I don't know which one is correct.
Correspondance lists for the German and French episode titles: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Der_Unsichtbare_(Fernsehserie,_1975)#Episoden and https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%27Homme_invisible_(s%C3%A9rie_t%C3%A9l%C3%A9vis%C3%A9e,_1975)#%C3%89pisodes

I fixed the mismatching German and French translations, and locked the titles.
According to the old newspapers I've checked, the series originally aired on Monday nights at 8PM and was cancelled by NBC on Thursday October 9, 1975. But multiple newspapers said the episodes would continue to air in the same time slot until January. The last episode to air before the cancellation was Barnard Wants Out on October 6, 1975.
The next week, a few NCB programs had to be shuffled around because of the World Series and on October 13, 1975 The Invisible Man was allegedly pre-empted by an episode of Movin' On.
The World Series continued into the following week, but there was no game on Monday the 20th. A few articles mentioned that NBC had originally planned to air an episode of The Invisible Man at 8PM followed by the premiere of The UFO Incident at 9PM. I cannot be a 100% sure an episode of The Invisible Man aired on on October 20, 1975, but I did find proof that The UFO Incident was broadcast that night. According to the Albuquerque Tribune, Las Vegas Sun, The Bee and The Cincinnati Enquirer, the episode scheduled that Monday was Go Directly to Jail.
To further complicate things, it looks like some NBC affiliates had a different schedule. For example, according to Las Vegas Sun, Pin Money aired on October 27, 1975. But according to Athens Messenger, The Family Holvak aired at 8PM replacing The Invisible Man.
And according to the Naples Daily News and the New York Times, Go Directly to Jail aired on November 3, 1975.
