I am trying to look up some titles from Netflix that do not have an exact match to TMDB due to differences in Netflix formatting.

For example, Netflix lists one of their shows as Bloodhounds: Season 1 // 사냥개들: 시즌 1 But that will not be returned I search via https://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/multi

So I have been splitting the titles up, looking for Bloodhounds or 사냥개들: 시즌 1 or 사냥개들, etc. Which kind of works. But then I have to go through the list and find the best match based on some sloppy heuristics.

I would like to have better matching. I am considering :

Filter first by release date and then network id
Using something like python fuzzywuzzy to score the matches in an attempt to find the best fit.

I want to make sure there is not a better way before going to deep.

Is there a way to do a multi filter with ANDs? All of my https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/tv searches are returning as OR operators, not "network AND release date"

Is there a way to string search that returns the best guess if there is not an exact fit?

"Search Movie" has more.

query - string required
include_adult - boolean
language - string
primary_release_year - string

"Search TV" too.

Thanks.

I will use movie/primary_release_year and tv/year to narrow the list down.

I may also play around with fuzzywuzzy and langdetect to narrow down the resulting matches.
