Requesting a Title Be Moved From TV Episode to TV Movie
The 1984 film Overdrawn At the Memory Bank is currently listed on IMDb as an episode of American Playhouse: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089759/
However, this film originally aired as a standalone TV movie on the Canadian television channel CBC on September 22, 1984. On February 4, 1985, it was re-broadcast in the US as an episode of American Playhouse: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overdrawn_at_the_Memory_Bank
Since this film was not originally aired as part of American Playhouse and was, in fact, originally aired as a standalone TV movie, it should be listed as a standalone TV movie on IMDb, with a separate entry for the American Playhouse airing.
Other movies that were previously released - including El Norte (1983) and Testament (1983) - also re-aired as episodes of American Playhouse, but those movies are listed as individual movies on IMDb, since they were originally released as individual movies.
