[YouTube-API] Re: Search API for Shows and Movies

UPDATE:

I've been experimenting with comma-separated lists of values for the category parameter like so:

https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos?time=this_week&orderby=viewCount&category=Shows,Gaming

And it appears that some category terms do a decent job of capturing shows in that category (Gaming, Animation) but some don't and do a tag based search instead (Drama, Documentary) and still others return nothing at all (Comedy, Entertainment). 

So either I am not using the correct term for some of the show categories, or this approach isn't the correct way to achieve what I want.
