Naming and Organizing Your TV Show Files

After searching not to name TV shows correctly on TheTVDB.com, the article says to name it as it appears, so Plex can view the TV shows correctly. Not sure where I need to look to name the show as it appears. I have attached 2 screenshots and hope that I can get assistance to make sure that I am naming the shows correctly to show up in Plex. Because, as if now, the shows do not appear in Plex. Thanks in advance for any help.

Episodes of TV shows should be listed SxxExx (Sxx=show season # even if only up to 9 seasons you should still add the zero in the front, Exx same goes with episode)
So how you have the folder structure helps

Show Name `- Season` - Files named SxxExx

I personally don’t add the episode title since Plex will add it for me when it scans. Granted I have add to do a Match or Fix match to pull all the metadata on occasion.
