or splitting up the seasons in the UI like Amazon does it (the amazon UX is quite dismal anyway)

They also have interlaced two seasons of some shows together (noticed this on a couple kids shows for my daughter). So it would go season 2 ep 1, season 3 ep 1, 2-2, 3-2, etc. In general it wouldn't matter for a kids show that doesn't have a continual storyline, but when you only pay for season 2, it then stops at the end of each episode instead of continuing on automatically, and you have to go back to the UI and skip one.
In some countries there’s multiple version of each season as well (e.g. original & dubbed) making it even messier.
