About This Guide

This episode guide brings together the episode runtime, synopsis, series context, and nearby episode navigation for MTV Unplugged. That gives readers and search engines a clearer relationship between the episode and the parent series instead of treating the page as an isolated record.

Editorial Take

The Smithereens and Graham Parker is presented as an episode-level guide that still keeps the parent series context visible, which is important because isolated episode pages can otherwise feel detached and thin. This episode sits at position 33 out of 147, so the page can answer both the runtime question and the progress question at the same time. Language context is also surfaced so users can judge accessibility and fit before clicking deeper into a title.
