Apple TV’s bad personal list management

Why don’t items that I select to watch later show up on my “Up Next” list?

iPhone 6s, iOS 13

Apple TV - Watchlists and Continue Watching Complications Apple TV - Watchlists and Continue Watching - When I add an Apple TV show to my Watchlist, and I watch even a second of it, it moves to Continue Watching. And if I have completed all the current seasons, even though the + has been clicked and is now a checkmark, it doesn't show up on the Watchlist. Why would anyone want this madness? This is over engineered. Let people have their own MY LIST, instead of something someone thinks is better. Add in all other shows promoted from linked services. Am I missing something here or is this how it works and nothing can be done. If this is the case, Apple please let us control how we manage our list of shows we have interest in.

Apple TV showing only 10 shows on my watchlist using Chrome I subscribe to Apple TV and watch using Chrome. My watchlist is only showing 10 shows. (The fact that I have to scroll down a ways to even find the watchlist is annoying but a separate issue). Is there any way to get it to show all the other shows I've added and not cap at 10?

Apple TV Up Next list Where can I find a list of all the shows I am following? The Up Next section only appears when new episodes are issued. Is there a glitch in my app? The automatic "next episode" loops episodes of other shows that I have already watched. Again, glitch? Synching between tv/app and laptop/app works erratically even though I am signed in under the same account. Glitch, again? Help!! Thank you.

For any TV show in the Apple TV app, one entry is added to Up Next, when choosing [+ Add to Up Next] (or [+ Add] or ⨁ for short on current version software). Consecutive episodes will follow automatically after watching. Unreleased episodes will not show until available. Upcoming new shows should list in Up Next with a “Coming soon” description.

I don’t think the Apple TV app has an option to select to “watch later”, I mean named like that. Where do you see that?
