The Movie Database Support

I'm noticing a discrepancy between the two fields listed in the subject when requesting TV Series details via the API. See the code snippet below:

The thing to pay attention to is: "last_air_date": "2024-04-23",

Then directly below, "last_episode_to_air": includes the field "air_date": "2024-05-14"

These two values should be the same.... "last air date" should equal the air date of the "last episode to air.

I've found many other examples of this, not just this one.
