Tv OS11 removed watched/unwatched video sorting

So now with the new TV OS11 all the movies on my mac that Are homeshared are all in one group “movies”

The ”unwatched”ones are no longer in a group of there own

there is not even a category of “unwatched”

so annoying everything is mixed all together now

no way of separating them all

any ideas?

This is my most used feature and enough for me to change my mind about getting another Apple TV (was planning on buying 4K for my 4K TV). The new browsing is beautiful but useless compared to the simple list of TV shows, then seasons, then episodes... much less usable. The loss of unwatched listings is a deal breaker for me! I can't even figure out a way to mark an episode watched/unwatched on tvOS 11... used to just hold down on trackpad, but it's gone too. I was going to make a playlist as a workaround, but I can't find a way to make a smart playlist that uses the watched/unwatched status... can only filter based on number of plays being less than 1, which isn't the same thing with multiple users in the house. I wish I could go back to tvOS 10 and I'll be looking for a way to do just that because this is a TERRIBLE UPDATE!
