This seems incorrect. Everyone else is putting the double name per episode number.

IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8762206/episodes?season=1

The TV DB: https://www.thetvdb.com/series/creepshow/seasons/1

Season 1, Episode 1 (and 2) should be set as "s01e01 - Gray Matter / The House of the Head"

They're also listed as one episode on Shudder, which is an odd way to do it as it is.

We have to split kid shows like Disney Junior and Nick Jr when it's two 15-minute segments aired as a single 30-minute block, so this has to follow the same logic.

Thank you, now I understand the reasoning. If Shudder is calling it 1 episode, with 2 parts, shouldn't they be listed the same way? It's going to throw off entries and searches.

With the kid stuff, it didn't distinguish the guest cast for each segment at the end which made that situation a little complicated, but with these they have two distinct credit blocks, including different writers and directors for each episode. Can't really add the writers for both episodes together when it's inherently wrong for half of the credits if they weren't actually involved with both.

Yea enzo_matrix is 100% right.

The series is an anthology series with two segments per episode. Classing each episode as two different ones is completely wrong, just because it is anthology format doesn't change the fact one episode is not two episodes and also completely disregards the fact that the two segments exist together and have a comic wrap around that is the start middle and end of each episode... without that the second segment of each episode would have no real start.

Obviously the episodes should be represented how Shudder intended it to be.

It would be impossible to add cast and crew to them if we see it as one episode.
