Do you have a reliable/official source?

In so much as it's numbered with the correct air date, yes. The point being for users (or anyone, for that matter) is that when users are sourcing numbering using foodnetwork.com (or travelchannel.com, hgtv.com, or any scripps network) those numbers are it's production number (including season numbering as well). That may or may not be the order it airs in. Using this example, you currently have season 31 ending July 10th - while season 32 apparently started on April 24th. As I understand it, overlapping seasons isn't desired here. This is likely a problem with other series as well and probably why a series like 'House Hunters' has already been changed to a year format.The problem is with differences between the parent company Discovery and the old maintaining company. After some emails with Discovery Fan Relations - Confirming what I thought, the old scripps sites like foodnetwork.com, travelchannel.com, etc are maintained by different people than watch.foodnetwork.com or watch.travelchannel.com
Scripps personnel still maintain the old Scripps sites -- but after the merger with Discovery, the 'watch' sites are maintained by Discovery personnel. So while the Scripps-controlled sites have production numbering on episodes and episodes that seem to 'jump' seasons if trying to follow airdates (an extreme example being 'House Hunters' that according to scripps hgtv.com has episodes in this year alone jumping between nine ... yes nine ... seasons) - the Discovery-controlled watch site is the source providing aired order and more importantly providing that numbering to consumer-facing streaming outlets as well such as Vudu, Google Play, Amazon, etc. Even better - occasionally when there is an error on the site, I've had good luck getting corrections done by emailing my contact at Discovery Fan Relations (just 2 months ago getting them to correct an episode of Girl Meets Farm that had been mistakenly put in a previous season while they were still in mid-season). There's no real "correction" that can be done to a production number - as no matter what order episodes air in, it's production numbering would stay the same.
It's not foolproof - errors do come in. The consumer-facing 'watch' sites also sometimes lump related entries together and sometimes need a secondary source like Gracenote to sort. However, anybody working with television metadata should hopefully be aware of the production-focused ordering of the scripps-maintained sites like foodnetwork.com, hgtv.com, travelchannel.com and the rest while noting the airing order listings of watch.foodnetwork.com, watch.travelchannel.com, watch.hgtv.com and the rest - and looking at numbering and change requests with that knowledge assessing those requests. It's up to each metadata site to decide how to handle that.
On a completely different topic - but as long as we're talking about useful tools for people needing to validate television metadata: For old series (I mean really old), it can be hard to find valid sources. I've found that news archive has a fairly complete record of the 'Schenectady Gazette' of all places. Their Saturday edition had TV listings for the upcoming week in the paper and I've had decent success in looking up some old entries. I just used it last night to verify 2 airings from 1975 of 'Little House on the Prairie' for example that had airing order entered as DVD order for that particular season.
Thanks for all the info, @eherberg. I was wondering why all the TV meta sites seem to be so screwed up with Food Network shows. I had noticed in the past that shows such as American Pickers had "Season Year" categorization on TVDB. Doesn't play so well with Sonarr as most of the Linux ISO distributors have not adapted the Season Year format.

https://www.tvmaze.com/shows/6676/beechgrove seems wrong info added.
Acording to https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00721bz, thetvdb, and imdb, it started airing in 1978 (which fits better with its 42 seasons, so far)
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3662388/
https://thetvdb.com/series/the-beechgrove-garden
The show is called 'The Beechgrove Garden', not 'Beechgrove'
NB: is there a way to search for shows thetvdb or imdb id's, and if so, how?
These two are the same person and need to be merged:
https://www.tvmaze.com/people/277702/doris-hancox
https://www.tvmaze.com/people/162959/doris-bowman
I'm actually not sure which one is correct, IMDb goes by 'Bowman', while the ABC press site goes by 'Hancox'. The credits of To Tell the Truth itself then goes by 'Doris Day Bowman'.
EDIT: Only just found her official Twitter, which also goes by 'Doris Day Bowman'.

I have updated the show name and we need to change it to year based, but sadly the official site only goes back till 2006.
