IMDB MCP — title metadata, ratings, episodes, and crew from IMDB's
If you already use MCP, the mcp mcp server is the piece that lets your assistant work with it directly. IMDB MCP — title metadata, ratings, episodes, and crew from IMDB's.
The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:
imdb_search — Search IMDB titles by primary_title (case-insensitive substring). Joins ratings inline so each hit includes average_rating + num_votes. Optionallyimdb_get_title — Full detail for one IMDB title by tconst id (e.g. "tt0111161"). Returns title, year, runtime, genres, plus rating (average + votes) and crewimdb_top_rated — Highest-rated titles, filterable by title_type, genre, year range, and min vote count. Use min_votes to filter out obscure titles with inflatedimdb_episodes — List every episode for a TV series, in season/episode order. Returns parent series detail plus episode list with title and rating per episodeSetup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.
Plenty of developer tooling servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. MCP's toolset — imdb_search, imdb_get_title, imdb_top_rated and 1 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by mojibake-ai; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
