Something VERY wrong with IMDb


Has anyone noticed that, as of the last couple of days, "The Virginian" (TV series) listing has disappeared and, instead, shows as:

4.
"The Men from Shiloh" (1962) (TV series)
aka "The Virginian" - USA (original title)

This is so vefy, very wrong. The show, when it began, was known as "The Virginian" and stayed "The Virginian" in its run until 1970. The new 1970 season, the show was renamed "The Men from Shiloh" and came back with an altered storyline until it was cancelled in 1971.

WTF?? Has there been an announcement that I missed? AFAIK, it's The Virginian and that's how it should be listed.

EDIT: I've since found out, in the last couple of days, that this is a MAJOR bug of the database system that has now cropped up. If you go to the Main Boards, down to the IMDB section, under "Contributors Help," there is an entire discussion of this and all the other bugs. Makes for some interesting reading.

If you are someone who thinks of IMDb as a great and informative resource, it might behoove you to find out what's going on in the background.

Well, I complained to the powers that wannabe and it's been fixed. We're now back to "The Virginian," however, the pic up is still "Men From Shiloh." Ah well, baby steps. Baby steps.
