In the same boat. Latest PlexPass version of PMS (0.9.9.10) running on Ubuntu Server 12.04. This issue has been around for me for quite some time... I've had PMS on CentOS, and before the MacOS Lion. I actually couldn't delete TV shows at all (not even singles) until i found a forum post stating I needed to enable clients the ability to delete files. At least there's that... One other thing. If I move/delete a movie from my movies folder, after running update, i do see a trash can icon over the cover.. this is only an issue with TV shows.
Now I've got a 2 shows I'd like to purge, and they remain in PMS... 9 seasons, and 14 seasons... I really don't wanna remove that file by file in the PMS web interface.
I think my issue is in the trash process... the logs look like I've got something in the trash, but always shows "About to destroy 0 deleted items" when i try to Empty Trash.

I'm happy to help out troubleshooting if needed. Just let me know what you'd like me to do.
