Hey all, I have what I feel is a silly question but one I have not found an answer to.
If you query the tmdb movie watch_provider API you will find ESPN in there with an ID of 1718 https://api.themoviedb.org/3/watch/providers/movie "display_priority": 167, "logo_path": "/ymuWlPllUC1TYw36qjsmia0XqJ8.jpg", "provider_name": "ESPN", "provider_id": 1718
However there ESPN does not show up when querying the tv api and I only find a single movie when grabbing all movie data for ESPNs id of 1718. https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie?sort_by=popularity.desc&watch_region=US&with_watch_providers=1718
This didn't seem right so I went digging and found networks: https://www.themoviedb.org/network/4132 which have more of what I'd expect to see for ESPN.
if I query the tv api filtering by the network ID for ESPN I get that data: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/tv?with_networks=4132 So I am curious what this distinction is, especially since ESPN does show up in the movie watch_provider api and I was wondering if there is an API call I can make to see all networks like I can to get watch_providers. Thanks all!

Networks are the TMDB data that indicates where a given TV series (not movies) where originally broadcasted.
Watch providers are data, given by JustWatch, that indicate where a given movie or series can be currently viewed.
