This issue is related with language=en-US parameter, with this parameter in url some API endpoints return not empty overview (and that's correct) but requests (also with language=en-US parameter) to similar endpoints like favorite-movies or watchlist-movies give us null overview which is incorrect.

To reproduce it:

1) Get movie details (request below returns not empty overview for given language - CORRECT)

GET https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/550?api_key={{api_key}}&language=en-US

The same happens on the list of top-rated movies (ID: 550 - Fight Club is high on this list so it's easy to check it here)

GET https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/top_rated?api_key={{api_key}}&language=en-US

2) Add movie to favorites

POST https://api.themoviedb.org/3/account/{{account_id}}/favorite?api_key={{api_key}}&session_id={{session_id}}

{
  "media_type": "movie",
  "media_id": 550,
  "favorite": true
}

3) Get list of favorites and search for movie with id 550 (overview will be empty - INCORRECT)

GET https://api.themoviedb.org/3/account/{account_id}/favorite/movies?page=1&language=en-US&api_key={api_key}&session_id={session_id}

4) Get list of favorites without language=en-US parameter (it gives us not empty overview - CORRECT)

GET https://api.themoviedb.org/3/account/{account_id}/favorite/movies?page=1&api_key={api_key}&session_id={session_id}

Hi @mkskurski Thanks for the report. I've created a ticket for this for me to look at here.

Just an update, this shouldn't be happening anymore. If you see it again, let me know.

I get the same error when I try to pull data from https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie.

my codes:
const req= await axios.get("https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie", {
        params: {
            api_key : "",
            language : "tr-TR",
            include_adult : false,
            page : Math.floor(Math.random() * 500)

        }
    })

@kleisberg I'm fairly confident you are talking empty overview, while the original post here was talking about null overviews.

In your case, yes, I am sure there are many movies without a Turkish overview, especially if you randomly selecting higher pages. This is normal, and expected since we don't have all items available in Turkish and our API does not fallback the overview field in any way.
