[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 633662, member: 18896"] Take a good look at the Wikipedia table, especially the last column. You will see that on TV, those last 4 episodes were actually Season 2. They have a firm rule on TheTVdB to go with the original countries method of order at first-time release. So you get these weird situations when there are DVD and Blu-Ray releases afterwards and some editor decides to change things. That's why seasons get locked by admins to prevent one person from changing it depending on their latest DVD/BR order and ruining it for thousands of users who were depending on the previous order. This does lead to problems, such as a German TV splitting some episodes up in a 2-parter and ruining the episode order, but TheTVdB is trying to compensate for that. But it will be a while before they can adapt to everybody so you get those cases such as this, in which it is easier to just look at the TheTVdB season/episode order and adapt by renaming your files. You do have Aired and DVD order options to compensate, but since there can be multiple releases (especially when u take other countries into account), you can still end up with a different order, such as your 13 vs 9 episodes in this case.
