Why is David Lynch not credited as director in the credits for Twin Peaks?

Hi, this endpoint https://api.themoviedb.org/3/tv/1920/aggregate_credits?... gives different directors ("job": "Director" → e.g. Lesli Linka Glatter with 4 episodes). But although David Lynch is correctly attributed as director for some episodes in the first two and all of the episodes in the third season, the Director credit for David Lynch is missing in the aggregate_credits above. Any idea as of why?

It's because of a bug we had that made credits disappear when they were added to the season while they were already added to an episode on that season. I just took care of this one, David Lynch should show up as a Director on your API call once the cache clears.

Thanks a lot for the fix!
I found a similar case. Although Issa López is credited as "director" for all episodes of the 4th season of True Detective, the https://api.themoviedb.org/3/tv/46648/season/4/aggregate_credits? endpoint gives no "director" at all. Is this also a bug or is this intentional? I assume it's not intentional which brings me to the question: Is the forum here the right place to address issues like these? Or what else should I do? At least it looks like I can't fix it myself.

Yeah, that seems like it's a bug with the aggregation on a seasonal level, I only see regulars on this page too: https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/46648-true-detective/season/4/cast, though https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/46648-true-detective/season/3/cast does show everyone in season 3 properly.
It is, yeah! I've also gone ahead and reported it internally.
