# Status Overlay
The `status` Default Overlay File is used to create an overlay on a show detailing its Current Airing Status for all
shows in your library.
![](images/status.png)
## Requirements & Recommendations
Supported Overlay Level: Show
## Supported Status
| Status | Key | Weight |
|:----------|:------------|:-------|
| AIRING | `airing` | `40` |
| RETURNING | `returning` | `30` |
| CANCELED | `canceled` | `20` |
| ENDED | `ended` | `10` |
## Config
The below YAML in your config.yml will create the overlays:
```yaml
libraries:
TV Shows:
overlay_files:
- default: status
```
## Template Variables
Template Variables can be used to manipulate the file in various ways to slightly change how it works without having to
make your own local copy.
Note that the `template_variables:` section only needs to be used if you do want to actually change how the defaults
work. Any value not specified will use its default value if it has one if not it's just ignored.
