The new "Active" templates are much more fancy with icons etc. ...
Yes, they are more fancy.
But when I sit down to watch a few episodes of a TV show I have in MC, I am presented with the same pictures of the actors over and over again, with each episode I view.
And those pictures take up a lot of space, pushing the information about each episode that I am interested in off the screen. Also, the actors' photos are current ones, not anything like the actors as they may appear on older shows.
Then there's that
huge bold font for the episode title.
What I'd like to see:
The option to show, e.g., Actors' names or Actors' names and photos when I configure what i want to see.
... and tone down that episode title. It does not need to take up that much screen space.
