Can I filter movies by specific genres and ratings?

Yes! Use the `discover_movies` tool. You can provide genre IDs in `with_genres` and use other filters like `sort_by` to find highly-rated content.

How do I get information about a specific actor?

Use the `get_person_details` tool with the person's unique ID. It will return their biography, place of birth, and other metadata.

Can I see the episodes of a specific TV season?

Absolutely. Use `get_tv_season_details` by providing the `series_id` and the `season_number`. It will list all episodes in that season.
