When upgrading to any version beyond 2.0.0, I get a method error for publish_date
To Reproduce

pip uninstall pytubefix
pip install 'pytubefix==2.0.0'

I would expect the method to not fail

try
from pytubefix import YouTube
video_url = 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDwVkXVHIqg&t=25s'
yt = YouTube (video_url)
publish_date = yt.publish_date
print(publish_date)JuanBindez commented
Here it worked perfectly, it is normal for some videos to not have the date and time available.

The issue was in extract.py. It was not returning a datetime object. I submitted a PR to fix that.
version 2.0.0 was returning a datetime object
