The show is not a new show, it already exists and has had 2 previous seasons, so like I said, this season needs to be added to the already existing database for this show, the fact that Netflix has taken it over from channel 4 does not change that!

Yes, it is. The reboot is a brand new show (not Season 3) as you can witness with your own eyes.

This is the only database site listing it as a new show, all the others have it listed correctly as season 3. The fact that it’s Nexflix’s first season of the show doesn’t change the fact it is season 3 of the show and that’s why it is referred to that way by everywhere that documents these things apart from here which is the only place that has created a new show page, when it’s not a new show, it’s an existing show that has been taken on by another network, that’s it, the writers, the cast etc are the same, it’s just the network that has changed!

Yh I back that, TheTVDB lists the show together as 4 seasons. Meanwhile this database is listing the reboot as a separate show. I don't see other reboots having the same treatment.

We always respect the will of the broadcaster. If the broadcaster restart at season 1, we also restart at season 1.

That doesn't change the way it was originally broadcasted.

I didn't speak to when it was originally broadcasted. I'm speaking to what is as clear as any show has ever been a direct continuation of an existing series. I don't know what weird thing Netflix has to jump through to separate them on its platform but it isn't two separate shows. It's the same actors, same characters, same setting, same creator and same country.

The official broadcaster is Netflix. Consequently, we should do the same.
