Hello,
When looking at the latest incarnation of Doctor Who, the website indicates there are two seasons: Specials
and Season 1
. To my understanding, this is correct.
When using the API ( https://api.themoviedb.org/3/tv/239770
), the following JSON is returned:
{
"number_of_episodes": 8,
"number_of_seasons": 1,
"seasons": [
{
"air_date": "2023-11-25",
"episode_count": 4,
"id": 366208,
"name": "Specials",
"overview": "",
"poster_path": "/yfv1M5j7tvYWD4hj4bufhYJvTx9.jpg",
"season_number": 0,
"vote_average": 0
},
{
"air_date": null,
"episode_count": 8,
"id": 366207,
"name": "Season 1",
"overview": "After a transformation in the 60th-anniversary special episodes, the Fifteenth Doctor encounters Ruby Sunday, a 19-year-old, during a Christmas adventure. Together, they encounter familiar faces like Kate Stewart and Mel Bush, while also meeting a peculiar character from the 1960s and a mysterious duchess. The episodes follow the Doctor and Ruby as they explore new worlds and encounter intriguing characters.",
"poster_path": "/91wVL2amQouWhbMfvrVeFNrrHmR.jpg",
"season_number": 1,
"vote_average": 0
}
]
}
(Note I've removed the irrelevant portions for brevity.)
Note that number_of_seasons
indicates 1
, despite the seasons
array clearly having two entries.
Is this expected behavior?
(This was reported to me by a user of my app)
Thanks, Casey

Hey Casey,
Yes, this is expected. When we count seasons, we do not count season 0 (specials).
