Since earlier today, I'm getting results that seem invalid JSON.
(At least unmarshalling in Go(lang) doesn't like this)
For example, with one: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/114478?api_key=xxx&language=en-US&append_to_response=recommendations
For the genre_id I expect a struct/array. So when it's empty, it should return "genre_ids": []
However, I see a mixture of:
"genre_ids": {}, and "genre_ids": [],
I think I saw this with origin_country for TV Shows as well.
Did something change?

Hi @MarcoTC,
Yes, I know why this is happening. I'll spend some time tonight/tomorrow morning looking into it.

This is fixed for the movie and TV recommendation methods. You'll have to wait for the cache to expire (~6 or so hours) but everything should be returning a proper empty array now.
Let me know if you see this on any other methods.
Cheers.

Sorry, I talked to soon.
The same issue is with origin_country
For example: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/tv/46639?api_key=xxx&language=en-US&append_to_response=recommendations

Groovy, I'll tweak that one as well.

The genre issue is back but it's now in collections.
Here's an example:
https://api.themoviedb.org/3/collection/435259?api_key=xxxx&language=en-US

Hello Travis,
The issue is back. I am getting both "genre_ids": {}, and "genre_ids": [],
I'm seeing it in recommendations but I'm not sure if it's in others as well. Could you please have a look?

I know why it's showing up again and will look at it first thing tomorrow morning. Thanks Marco.
