Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

It looks like the AMC downloader is expecting ratings to exist, but there might not be any.

Which ratings?

[tremby]

See in the stack trace. Second-from-last line, where it shows the line of code which is failing:

rating = theplatform_metadata['ratings'][0]['rating']

[elasca]

i don't know how to correct that, any idea?
