The Movie Database Support

Hi, noticed this little issue here:

When lookup this movie in via the API:

The Comedy Central Roast of James Fran http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/227659-the-comedy-central-roast-of-james-franco

I'll get this response:

{
  "page": 1,
  "results": [
    {
      "adult": false,
      "backdrop_path": null,
      "id": 227659,
      "original_title": "The Comedy Central Roast of James Franco",
      "release_date": "",
      "poster_path": null,
      "popularity": 0.0,
      "title": "The Comedy Central Roast of James Franco",
      "vote_average": 0.0,
      "vote_count": 0
    }
  ],
  "total_pages": 1,
  "total_results": 1
}

Even though the release date is known on the website, the API response does not contain the release_date data.

cheers! red

Hi rednoah,

Aside from the fact that we don't allow TV content within the movie collection (which is why the entry was deleted) the API caches data for 24 hours. I'm confident in saying that you or someone else had requested the entry before the release date was added which is what caused the release date to not be present. Wait ~24 hours and everything would be displayed.

Cheers.

Alright, I'll keep 24h caching in mind next time I check.

Thanks for the help!
