I thought I had understood how images populate from an episode to the overall series title page, but now I'm confused.
Why does https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0565373/mediaviewer/rm850323456 not populate to the series title page?
Contrast that with this pic as an example, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0681805/mediaviewer/rm2730840064, which shows also on the episode but also on the overall series title page as well.

Why does one populate up and one does not?

thanks in advance.

Hi MikeTheWhistle,

The first image is only tagged to the episode, not also to the series page, like the second example. Did this image actually come from that episode? If not then it should probably only be listed on the series page.

Thanks,
Will

wow i just learned something. didn't realize an image from an episode of a series could be done not tagged to the series. I had looked at its tags but missed the series wasn't there. That is very helpful. thx

On the Quincy image, I don't know if that image is or isn't from the episode although the same image is separately added to both episodes that actor played in his two Quincy episodes which were two different characters so the image only fits to one of the episodes not both.

In one of those it possibly could be from the episode. I vaguely remember the episode having seen it when it originally aired like 35 years ago that was about drunk driving disguising a murder.  I recall an ep where there were high school students about drunk driving although I thought it was a different ep but don't know for sure.  The actor, and thus that pic, could possibly have portrayed a high school drunk.
Unfortunately I don't have anywhere that I can stream the ep and the station that had been airing Quincy stopped just this week.
But hopefully I'll live long enough to see those episodes again and correct it, but time will tell.
thx again for all the help.

That image is not from those episodes (Quincy M.E.).

Thanks MAthePA, I've removed the episode link and left it on the parent only.

Thanks,
Will
