The number of votes from users in IMDB for tv episodes is a lot more than those from TheTVDB users.
For instance the last episode of Game of Thrones:
168 ratings in The TVDB
and
12893 in IMDB.
Therefore I personally think the ratings from IMDB are "better" because more users have voted.
The API of "TheTVDB" already returns the IMDB ID for a tv series episode, so that wouldn't be a problem.
The add-on for The Movie Database has an option "Get rating from".
It would be nice if the scaper for TheTVDB would provide the same setting and make it optional to select IMDB as the source for the ratings.
