I have two TV shows (Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel) that aired on the same day but Buffy aired first. I attempted to just lump both the TV shows into the same collection with a chronological play back, however it sorted (A)ngel before (B)uffy however that is not how the episodes aired so the story that tied them together aired backwards. Is there better way to achieve the goal of playing back these overlapping TV shows on the same channel?

are these local libraries or from a media server?

which media server? and do you have other shows on the channel, or just the one collection/schedule item?
and is there one pair of episodes that were on the same day, or is that every episode?

Plex Media Server. The all eps from all seasons from all shows are currently lumped into one collection. Buffy has 4 seasons alone then angel starts and seasons 5,6,7 of Buffy overlaps with Angel seasons 1,2,3 then Angel has 2 stand alone seasons. The intent was to have the the seasons that overlap properly. Angel and Buffy aired on the same day during season 5 (Buffy) and 2 (Angel) the overlap was Buffy s5e22 aired on May 22, 2001 and Angel s2e22 aired May 22, 2001 but directly following (SPOILER ALERT) Buffy dies in her show and on Angel they get a phone call tying the two shows together, but Angel plays first in chronological.
For the season where they aired on the same day it was always Buffy first.
