I had to switch from TMDB recently when the new Doctor Who specials were assigned to a completely different series ID for some reason (which matched with the TMDB website).

Unfortunately, that's not an error. Apparently, the BBC insists that the 2005 Doctor Who reboot ended in 2022, and the new specials and the upcoming season, are all technically a new series. So now it has its own new entry on TMDB. It's stupid, and I hate it, but here we are. I guess it makes some amount of sense, since the original Doctor Who and the 2005 reboot are also conaidered to be seperate series. I wonder if that means the episodes going forward are considered to be yet another reboot of the series.

That is so bizarre and seemingly arbitrary
