Opt in with include for more, each one more page read: seasons (every season with number, name, year, episode count, rating, overview, poster and link), recommendations, watch_providers (every stream, rent and buy offer in region) and videos (trailers).
Every response includes credits_used: the credits this call cost.

Example
curl "https://api.api.sh/tmdb/v1/tv?id=1396" \
-H "x-api-key: $APISH_KEY" import os, requests
res = requests.get(
"https://api.api.sh/tmdb/v1/tv",
params={"id": "1396"},
headers={"x-api-key": os.environ["APISH_KEY"]},
timeout=120,
)
res.raise_for_status()
data = res.json() const url = new URL("https://api.api.sh/tmdb/v1/tv");
url.searchParams.set("id", "1396");
const res = await fetch(url, { headers: { "x-api-key": process.env.APISH_KEY } });
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(`${res.status} ${await res.text()}`);
const data = await res.json(); Response
A JSON object with the fields described above, plus raw (the source's own data), cached, fetched_at and credits_used. Errors return {"success": false, "error": "…"} with the HTTP status (see errors). A lookup that ran but found nothing (404) costs the price above; refused calls and errors on our side are free (what's charged).
