Season split

Season 12 ends at episode 277, and Season 13 begins at episode 278. The full episode list confirms that Seasons 1–12 and Seasons 13–25 are a clean division point for the series.

Easy way to think about it

• S1–S12 = the early-to-middle era.
• S13–S25 = the later era, including the newest seasons currently listed.
• If you’re organizing files, playlists, or a watch order, this split is a practical one because it matches the season boundary.

Episode count by range

• S1–S12: 277 episodes total.

• S13–S25: 267 episodes total, based on the episode numbering shown through Season 25.

If you want, I can also turn this into a season-by-season episode count table in HTML.
