I run the following query in the mean time to clear out the watched status: 

sql:
DELETE FROM `episode_watched` WHERE idShow=ANY(select idShow from tvshows where title = "Friends") 

I think the multi user solution would be the better way to go, since this seems to be a very special case to consider in the addon. Neverthess, I added this to the ToDo list of the addon, but it is unlikely I (or someone else) will do this due to time limitations. 

appreciate you adding this to the ToDo list. The trackt addin currently has this functionality to ignore certain paths so thats how I accomplish this with that addin. 

Maybe I am not understanding why you are suggesting the multi-user method as a resolution to my issue. How will having multiple users prevent any single user from having the TV Show friends as watched? I essentially always want the TV Show friends to be marked as unwatched. Thank you!
