I have saved my rip of Third Rock from the Sun in directory:
D:\media\tv\3rd rock from the sun.
I have the TV library directory listed as D:\media\tv.
When I browse through the TV shows listed on the server, I never see 3rd rock from the sun. I do not find it anywhere in the list of tv shows.

After any naming/directory structure changes, you may need to perform the Plex Dance . Perform the Dance for the entire show, not just certain episodes/seasons.

move all files for the media item out of the directory your Library is looking at, so Plex will not “see” it anymore
scan the library library (to detect changes)

double check naming schema and move files back
scan the library
