OK so plex is seeing the media, however your naming is less than ideal. Can you do the removal and cleanup parts of the [plex dance](https://forums.plex.tv/t/the-plex-dance/197064), then rename the folder to `Deli Boys (2025) {tvdb-435662}` restart plex and then add it back to Plex? This should point to an issue of naming or some other underlying issue.
