Short description of the issue

  • Exact matches after title search not at the top

Detailed description with additional context about the workflow

  • When searching shows or movies by title, exact matches do not get highest weight

  • For example when searching shows for “The Game”, the 2014 and the 2025 shows “The Game” show up only on page 4, after only three pages of only partial matches

  • Exact matches need ALWAYS be sorted to the top of the list

Other example: Movie title search “kids”. I don’t know if the 1995 movie “Kids” ever shows up, I stopped looking on page 8- Again: This is an exact match and needs to be the first match shown.
