Austria should be added as additional country of origin
posted by shinykariSTAFFMOD on July 5, 2022 at 2:38 PM
The series is co-produced by the BBC and Austrian firm MR Film. Can Austria be added as another country of origin?

"Vienna Blood is a British-Austrian psychological thriller television series ..." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vienna_Blood_(TV_series))
It is produced by ORF/MR Film and Endor Productions and other co-producers.
Edit (2023-04-03): After reading again in the bible it's correct to have only UK as origin country.
However, I'm not sure if this field was really necessary because I think, it should have been quite good enough to have this information just in the first aired date.
P.S.: In this case it's IMHO quite somehow strange, since BBC bought the rights for the series after the production has been started (by MR/ORF, also ZDF was involved). But again: it's following the rules of TMDB (... no matter it the rule is good, or not).

It seems that you made a confusion between production countries and origin country.
Austria is correctly listed as being one of the production countries of this series.
But, the origin country is the United Kingdom as this series was first released in the United Kingdom by the BBC. (The series started on November 18, 2019 in the United Kingdom and only on December 20, 2019 in Austria.)
