Hi there,

I'm trying to see what you've got wrong ... my code looks pretty similar :

JSONArray jsonShows = jsonData.getJSONArray("shows");

for (int i = 0; i < jsonShows.length(); i++){
  JSONObject jObj = jsonShows.getJSONObject(i);
  Log.i("CodeChallenge", jObj.getString("title"));
}

It is your first line by the looks of it - you've not got the right thing loaded into your JSONArray.

I'm surprised that passed the first part of the challenge if it isn't correct?

Thanks a million, that is were the error was

No problem - glad it worked for you.
