Hi.
Movie Detail: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/496243?api_key=#APIKEY#&language=en-US
Configuration Languages: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/configuration/languages?api_key=#APIKEY#
Please add "english_name" to "spoken_languages" as in Configuration Languages.

Hi @sereisoglu,
I've created a new ticket for this here. Given its simplicity, I will try to get that one done sooner, rather later.

@travisbell , I think "languages" for TV Show and "spoken_languages" in Movie are the same. Is it correct? But "languages" is type [String]. Can you make "languages" in TV Show like "spoken_languages" in Movie?

Unfortunately, no. Any changes to the structure/name like that would break every client using the data.

Could there be a new property addition?

Hey @sereisoglu, I decided it was easiest to just add a
spoken_languagesfield to TV shows. This way both objects now return the same consistent field. I wish I would have noticed this back in 2013 when we launched the TV API but ah well, sometimes you miss a field here and there.Reply by AkashKadole

So just to be sure, in the api 'https://api.themoviedb.org/3/tv/{series_id}' the data of key 'languages' & key 'spoken_languages' is same. only the structure is different for both keys.
