Item: Ted Lasso
Language: en-US
Type of Problem: Incorrect_content
Extra Details: The Season 3 episode air date is erroneously set. It's currently 3/14/2023 (a Tuesday) and it should be 3/15/2023 (a Wednesday). This inaccuracy is causing scrobblers like Trakt to display the weekly air date one day ahead of the actual air date.
Thank you for your time and attention in this matter :)

The release date of Apple TV shows is based on Ireland time. The shows are available the previous day around 9pm in the United States. Consequently, the listed dates are correct as this is a United States show.

I just want to thank you for the swift reply!
In the US (I live in Texas) AppleTV+ lists Ted Lasso weekly airings as Wednesdays, but due to the TMDB information Trakt incorrectly displays the next episode as airing on Tuesdays, which is a day earlier that the actual air time. TMDB shows S03E01 as originally airing 3/14/23, but AppleTV+ states it's 3/15/23. I hope I'm not being argumentative as I want the same thing you do...an accurate TMDB record.
Thanks again for taking the time to moderate as I'm sure it can be thankless at times. Cheers!

As indicated above, even if Apple TV+ list it for March 15, the show is already available on March 14 around 9pm. So, for us, the March 14 date is correct.

Since TMDB is a global database there's a reason the "Worldwide Premier Date" matters more that the UK premier date. A lot of apps rely on accurate premier dates so that their internal timezone compensation algorithms will present accurate information for global consumption.
The "worldwide premier date of 3/15" is announced in this article as well as the episode dates. - https://www.express.co.uk/showbiz/tv-radio/1745689/Ted-Lasso-season-3-release-time-premiere .
Again, just want to help and not coerce. Have an awesome Tuesday or in your case Monday!!

All our shows are listed based on their release date in their original country.
"Ted Lasso" is a United States show and this show is avalable in the US on March 14 around 9pm. So, we should list it as released on March 14.
This is the rule of this site and is not specific to this show.
