Are you sure you're not doing something wrong, because you're linking to movies, not a series. https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/41522-nati-ieri

(that one doesn't have any seasons or episodes added btw.

you can see your problem now , it's now movie , it's tv show , it's from Syfy , you can found the show on TVDB , TVDB don't have any movie

here : http://thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=158881&lid=7

and there is one more : https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/153397-restless

Oh right! I get the confusion, those you link are miniseries, and are in both the tv and movie section, that has always been an exception. But it will expire on/around August 20th. From then we'll only keep then in the tv section.

Here you can find the Phantom mini series for example; https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/37939-the-phantom

hmm.. with your system , one id , can belong to a tv and a movie ????? same id ???

Yes, movie, tv and person id's are all separate. There's;

Also keywords, production companies etc have their own id count.

So what's the solution here ? it belong to movie now , but it's a tv show , tv mini series, it have eps it have networks .. couldn't found it under tv ..

Hi @sa1nt I', not sure the problem you're having. If you're only interested in TV shows, only use the TV show methods and ignore everything in the movie namespace.

There will be an effort later this year where we stop support mini-series in the movie section but they are currently present because back before we had TV (before 2013) we made exceptions to allow some content to exist in the movie section (because a lot of that content gets released on DVD).

My problem is , a lot of mini-series , is not belong to TV shows in your API , so i can't use them .. although it is in Movie cate , but there is no network no episode , but there should be .. you can see in TVDB it all have , because it is TV show .. Back to my problem , i only need TV show , but with TMDB is movie , and less infomation

You're not going to want to rely on any mini series information found in the movie section as like I mentioned, a lot of that will need getting removed later this year.

If the data either doesn't exist, or, isn't complete enough in the TV section, there's not going to be much you can do. I guess this is an area that needs to get filled out over time.

ok ..
