Air Disasters S7

It seems that Smithsonian might be moving to release S7, as they aired "Lockerbie Disaster". However, YTTV may have incorrectly listed it as S23E2102.

I'll update it once more episodes come out. Interstate264 (talk) 02:20, 24 September 2024 (UTC)

Yeah, this is really weird. They're airing Mayday season 7, but aside from the episode you note, none of the episodes have a season or episode number! And there's no reference to find the correct season. Smithsonian's Air Disasters page is a redirect to Paramount+, but the P+ page only lists 19 seasons.
Regarding "S23E2102"... up until season 18 in 2022, Smithsonian always had 10 episode seasons. Season 18 had 24, back to 10 for season 19, and then a whopping 30 for season 20 (which was all re-edits of The Accident Files). So either the new episodes are season 21, or season 20 really should have been S20, S21, and S22 at 10 episodes each, with the new season being S23.
This is not the first time Smithsonian has made error is the listing data. Msschmitt (talk) 05:16, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
More confusion:
  • Spectrum's guide now lists this season's episodes as continuations of season 20: Scratching the Surface is S20 E31, Lockerbie Disaster is S20 E32, etc.
  • But if you go to the Smithsonian Channel's TV Schedule, it is season 21. For example, Falling Fast is S21 E6.
So which is it? I'm inclined to go with S21. Msschmitt (talk) 20:47, 20 October 2024 (UTC)
The Smithsonian Channels TV Schedule and the Spectrum guide are now, finally, both in agreement: we're watching "new" episodes in Air Disasters Season 21. So I'm updating as such in the page. Msschmitt (talk) 20:20, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
