Delete episodes after playing causing issues

Server Version#: 4.136.0
Player Version#: 8.38.3

Greetings! I have “delete episodes after playing” set to “After a day” for a TV show. Plex then deletes the episodes as expected. If all episodes of that show are watched, then it will remove the show from Plex (which is fine). However, as soon as a new episode is released Plex treats it as if a completely new show was added. I’ll get a notification that says a new show was added and all of the custom artwork I provided gets removed.

Is there anyway to keep the show settings in Plex’s memory until a new episode is added? I feel like I’m missing something. Thanks!
