     * The mediaType property only exists in the trending API call. For the sake of using the same

     * variable to judge whether a video is a TV show or a movie. This fails for API calls, such as
     * top rated or netflix originals. Thus, I have created a 'hacky' way of determining that by
     * checking if two properties exist: the first_air_date (only for tv shows) or the release_date
     * (only for movies).
