So, recently, I upgraded my OS and jumped from iTunes 11 to iTunes 12. I won't go into what a s**tshow 12 is, but I want to ask a question...

In iTunes 11, all new podcasts had both a big blue dot and a checkmark next to it. If you unchecked a new podcast, it would not automatically be played after the one you are listening to was complete. This seems to be missing in iTunes 12. Or, at least I can't find how to turn it back on.

Does this still exist? Or, did Apple trash a handy little control?

Thanks!

Ok this is a bit strange but if your viewing your Podcast List in iTunes,
Click on My Episodes, now even if the podcast is cloud-based, ticked or un-ticked, it will
stop after the one episode you've decided to watch.

If you have Feed selected up-top then they will continue to play one after the other!
Even if "Checked" ticked or un-ticked they will still play continuously

That didn't work for me. It jumped straight to the next episode even with "My Episodes" selected. In any case, I much prefer viewing my Podcasts in Classic List view. It's cleaner and quicker to view.
