The Movie Database Support

Just starting to play around with the API and noticed that the following query for "Drunk History (UK)" returned no results:

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/tv?query=Drunk+History+%28UK%29&api_key=1234

I tried the same query on the website and it didn't work either, so I thought maybe it'd help to add an alternate title and keyword to the series, so did so. Now the same search on the website works but fails from the API. If I strip out the parens, I get a hit on the API. Is the website stripping out parenthesis by default?

This is the title that sickbeard gives to me, I thought maybe I wasn't encoding parens correctly or maybe there's a silent rule to strip them by default for queries. Either way let me know!

You'll have to wait for the cache on the API to expire before the changes are reflected there.
