This will take priority over the `Airs before season/episode` fields if they are set. + - When multiple specials have the same position, they will play in the order in which they are stored in the specials season. For example, if S00E01 and S00E03 both have `Airs before season` set to `3` and `Airs before episode` set to `7`, the order the content will play in is: S03E06 → S00E01 → S00E03 → S03E07. Note that this will show them in both the `Specials` season, as well as the season specified.
