Introducing: Episode Ratings Spotlight on Desktop and Mobile Web
What's new?
The Episode Ratings Spotlight is a new widget on series pages that makes it easy to see how ratings evolve across a season, and to share your own opinion on individual episodes.
Here's what you can do:
- Ratings at a glance. View a season average alongside a per-episode bar graph showing how ratings shift from episode to episode.
- Navigate across seasons. Explore ratings trends across an entire series, with episode images and summaries to refresh your memory.
- Rate episodes without leaving the page. Quickly provide a 1-10 rating for any aired episode, straight from the series page.
How it helps
Whether you're settling a debate about which season peaked, tracking a show's momentum, or catching up on a series and want to know which episodes fans loved most, Episode Ratings Spotlight puts all of that context in one place.

It seems to replace the old widget which displays the most recent episode, sometimes the next episode, etc. I think that is also helpful, and I guess users are often looking for information on the most recent episodes. The old widget still appears on some pages.
It also includes those "Top-rated" links which lead to an advanced title search with a series= operator, which I have found to be useful to search within a series. Maybe this search option could be included somewhere.
