IN vs ON

which are right?

1 She was on 5 episodes

2 She was in 5 episodes (as in she starred in 5 episodes)

3 I'm on episode 5 (does this mean you're watching episode 5 cause that's what it means to me)

4. What episode are you in/on? (does one mean "starring as ian actor and the other "watching"?

ON to me means WACHING

and IN means "starring"

can someone let me know what they think?

Thank you

Hi, which W hich are right? For some reason, you seem to be putting capitals at the start of your examples, but not at the start of your own sentences. 1 She was on 5 episodes Not wrong, but 'in' is more idiomatic.
