Actually, that's quite the opposite.
The IMDB mythtv module used to be written in perl, now it's in Python
using IMDbPY

Thanks for letting me know about the movie['year']
For the change in the plot format, I've submitted a patch to mythtv.
What I did is compare the size of both blocks and assume the longest
is the actual text.

I can guarantee you that it works with 3.6 !

I'm guessing the problem is in the search for TV series, as series
support in 3.6 wasn't working that well.
