BLUF: I'm looking to use the STATUS of TVs {Returning Series, Planned, In Production, etc} and Movies {Released, In Production, etc}, however, I cannot seem to find the documentation that defines these values.
I've checked out this discussion and done some testing of the API on my own. There doesn't seem to be a consensus on which values are associated with which status. In the linked discussion it's believed that a TV show with_status: 2 would have a status of Pilot, however, when I just tested the v3 API I concluded that 2 maps to In Production.
I'm looking for clarification in the documentation that has the mapping of these status values to their associated strings. OR even better would be something akin to the genre/tv/list and genre/movie/list endpoints given that the statuses may be subject to change.
From my testing of TV Status
I tested this by using the /discover/tv endpoint of the v3 API which returns a list of shows that have said status I then used the /tv/{series_id} endpoint using the first series_id from the /discover/tv endpoint to conclude the status given status. Below is what I came up with
0 Returning Series
1 Planned
2 In Production
3 Ended
4 Canceled
5 Pilot

In fact, there is no this type of information for TV Show on DOCs.
The information I have is different.
But it could be wrong. I never tested it.
If you can check it out and report it here I would appreciate it.

Awesome! Is there a plan to add filtering ‘with_status’ to the discover/movie endpoint, similar to discover/tv?

I thought I had already created a ticket for this but couldn't find anything. Here's the ticket I just created.
No immediate plans to add it but at least it's being tracked now.

Any chance we can get this implemented soon? Have submitted a working status filter for Series
