Historical Programming Schedule

Hi there, Is there a way to find the exact schedule for a network, e.g. BET Networks: which show aired when, and the IMDB or other identifier for the show?

Hi @tirandagan,
Depending what you're looking for, maybe? While we do have network and original episode air date information, we do not have time data (ie. Show X aired on Network Y @ 9:00 PM).
IMDB ID coverage on episodes isn't amazing, so that would be your next issue. For popular content I'm sure the coverage is fine, but if you're looking for a long tail of content, you'll probably notice a lack of IMDB ID's to be an issue.
