Please make genre choices the same in movies and TV.

On TMDb, movies and TV shows have different genres. For example, genres such as Horror, Thriller, and Kids are not available for selection in TMDb's movies. And this leads to confusion. Of course, there may be genres that are specialized only for movies or only for TV, but if there are no major problems, please match the genres of movies and TV equally.

I agree with your general request. Lets do that:

  • bin 10770, not needed. - bot should add it as a keyword before deletion
  • Reactivate 22 for movies only
  • Create Sports genre or reactivate
  • Create Short genre or reactivate for movies only
  • Create Biography genre or reactivate
  • split 10759 in 28 and 12
  • allow 10762 for films too (optional)
  • split 10765 in 878 and 14
  • merge 10752 into 10768 (means, 10768 stays)
  • allow 36, 27, 10402(optional), 10749 and 53 for TV too
  • change the rules so 3 genres should generally be priorized but 4 are allowed

the 'optional' marked points are low priority in comaparism.
