TV Shows are turning off their own episode/season monitoring

This has happened to me multiple times. Why is it when I check the calendar and find my show missing from the schedule, and when I investigate further that the show’s current season and/or episodes have been toggled to “Not Monitored” status (the program is toggling the state to “not monitored” all by itself, there’s no way I would do this). What do I have to do to ensure that scheduled shows appear where they belong and not have unaired episodes marked as “Not Monitored”?

The only time it will unmonitor them is when an episode is deleted and the Automatically Ignore Deleted Episodes option is enabled.

I have “Ignore Deleted Episodes” set to Yes in settings, and I delete shows through the interface as I watch them. The episode I delete automatically sets itself to unmonitored. Everything else (not watched or unaired) is still in a monitored status because I check after I delete the episode.

What I’m talking about is the fact that the entire season and the unwatched/unaired episodes were all changed to unmonitored during a series update.

The example I’m using is tonight’s episode of Scorpion. I went to look and nothing was being monitored. This has also happened before for The Good Wife and others, I can’t remember which series they were.

Edit: Anger Management has last four episodes scheduled marked as unmonitored and the season is marked as unmonitored. It is doing the same thing Scorpion did.

If the season is unmonitored then new episodes in that series are automatically unmonitored (added during a refresh).

If you unmonitor all the episodes in a season the season is still considered monitored. New seasons are automatically considered monitored, any existing seasons keep their monitored status.

Nothing built into Sonarr would cause this behavior. If you enable debug logging it will log when the monitored status of an episode is changed.

_logger.Debug("Monitored flag for Episode:{0} was set to {1}", episodeId, monitored); (episodeId is the internal ID of the episode)

I have these series, but not seeing this issue.

Have this series as well, all 4 TBA title’d episodes are monitored.

If you refresh the series is the status changed?
