You're right - PHP serialization looks very similar. Either do JSON. I dont thinks is standard format. Where is it come from? BTW, here are common serialization formats https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_data_serialization_formats Comparision of example arrays below in article

Did You managed db migration already? I can advice You to use plugin that can handle this for You, for example WP Migrate DB - it handle serialized data pretty well. According to this: https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/4.7.3/src/wp-includes/functions.php#L325 - Wordpress uses standard PHP serialization functions, so looks like something corrupted Yours.

It doesn't look like valid JSON. It's actually serialized array: ["xyz",""] a is for array, 2 indicates elements count s is string 3 string length "xyz" string 'content' s - string 0 - string length "" string 'content' If You need JSON formatter here is good one: https://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/
