IMDb adds TV season info

imdbOne thing that had always frustrated me about IMDb was the lack of episode-specific information. When viewing an actor's television credits, the episode they appeared in would be listed next to a link to the show. However, if you wanted to see details of just that episode, including what other special guests may have appeared, you were out of luck.

It seems that IMDb has finally made some changes to their television show listings, now providing season and episodal information. Here's an example for Family Guy; note the links to seasons. Definitely a welcome addition!

Unfortunately, this new feature gets rid of the 'Guest Appearances' section, which was really useful for finding either A) an episode season and number (for reruns where you have no idea what season it might be) or B) the name of a guest actor. The 'Guest Appearances' section used to list ALL episodes and EVERY guest actor on one page, so you could just load the guest appearances page and do a quick 'find' for the name of the guest character.

This was particularly useful for shows with lots of guest actors, and seasons that aren't particularly distinguishable from one to the next (*cough*CSI*cough*)...
