Movie and person ingestion existed, but the series/season/episode API
endpoints had no way to actually populate them from TMDb -- the
biggest remaining gap in Core 0.1's television scope.
- normalize_series/normalize_season in the metadata normalizer,
including two TMDb quirks that would otherwise silently produce
empty data: /tv nests keywords and alternative_titles under
"results" (not "keywords"/"titles" like /movie), and series-level
creators come from a separate created_by array, not the credits
cast/crew lists.
- ingest_series upserts the Series row plus season *stubs* (number,
title, air date, poster -- everything TMDb inlines on /tv/{id});
ingest_season fetches and upserts one season's full episode list,
and requires the series to already exist (TMDb has no single
endpoint for a whole series' episodes, so this has to be a separate
per-season call).
- Wired through the same job-lifecycle path as movie/person ingestion
(runner.py, arq tasks, admin endpoints), with the shared boilerplate
between them factored into runner._run_ingestion and
admin.py:_enqueue rather than copy-pasted a third and fourth time.
- Unit tests for both normalizers (runnable without a DB) and
integration tests for the full ingest_series -> ingest_season flow,
including the series-must-exist-first error and idempotency on
re-ingestion.
