IMDB covers TV series as well as movies.

Request is the ability to use IMDB as a metadata source for TV series.

Here's some links where you can see the cost of IMDB data and why that's very unlikely to be implemented in foreseeable future:

Not sure if something can done with this, but IMDB does offer their data sets for free for non-commercial/personal use: https://developer.imdb.com/non-commercial-datasets/

Nice find.

It does have ratings and other data available.

@Luke  @ebr  Would a community created plugin be OK?

You can obviously create one but we can’t put it in the catalog.
