Tips & Warnings
To only remove specific episodes, follow steps 1 through 4, then deselect them in the “Selected TV Shows” menu. To only remove watched episodes (and continually sync new, unwatched episodes), change the sync settings to “all unwatched episodes” in the drop-down menu.
Be sure your iPod has finished syncing before “ejecting” it from iTunes and disconnecting it from the computer.
