search upcoming tv series episodes matching a particular actor
Inlagt av expntlySTAFFMOD den 19 april 2015 vid 10:29 PM
Is there a way I could figure out the upcoming tv series episodes a particular actor is going to play, or at least which show? This is more of a search query, in the sense that I don't know in advance which actor (or which show) the user is going to request.
I tried /person/{id}/tv_credits but that's not helping apparently, e.g. http://api.themoviedb.org/3/person/17286/tv_credits (17286 is actress "Lena Headey") doesn't show me the upcoming episodes she's going to play (or the current season) in Game of Thrones

Thanks!

Hi expntly,
I'm not sure how or if we will support any kind of episode queries yet. A couple people have asked about episode searching, but then there could be an argument for an episode discover method too. Perhaps if I hook up a
next_air_dateparameter to/discover/tvand then hook up thewith_peoplemethod like it exists on movies already, you could get something close to what you're looking for. I've created a ticket to think about this here.Cheers.
