Just like we can already add externals for TheTVDB, IMDb & TVRage, it would be nice to set the TMDb id (on creation) too
API docs: https://themoviedb.org/documentation/api
Except we only list TV shows. We don't track movies.
@LadyShelley TMDb lists both movies and TV shows
Last I checked, TMDb's data for TV shows was mostly crap. Kinda like IMDb.
@tnt I checked it out earlier today and it seems (at first sight) that they have a good dataset of the episodes and characters in each episode, so that’s why I wanted to suggest them
It would take a lot of data-entry effort to find the new external ID for our more than 55.000 shows. And as you can see in Edit Requests, even after the initial effort, maintaining the externals still takes a lot of effort because the external parties tend to frequently delete/re-create/change their listings. This is not likely to happen unless there's an extremely good reason for it.
