Notes
No account or API key is needed. Search covers games, movies, TV and music, with the site's first page of results only. Music results use the type album; use the returned URL to identify a title and its slug.
Game scores and counts are for the default platform shown on the page, not all platforms combined. The platform can differ between titles; other platforms are not selectable here. Movie year is the displayed year, not a full release date. Counts are display text, scores are strings, and unrated titles may show tbd or omit fields. Summaries are the page's previews and may end in "Read More".
TV year is the displayed start year and releaseDate is the first season's premiere. Critic reviews use the site's default platform for games and its default season selection for TV. Review dates and critic names may be absent; critic names retain the displayed "By" prefix. Browse and critic reviews return only the first page, ordered by the site's default Metascore sort. TV browse excludes titles with fewer than seven critic reviews.
About these operations
Each operation is a request learned from Metacritic's own web pages: API Anything replays it over plain HTTP and falls back to a browser when it must. Read them as JSON.
