You need to follow Plex naming requirements.

[Plex Dance](https://forums.plex.tv/t/the-plex-dance/197064) the entire show after renaming and reorganizing the episodes. This removes incorrect information from the Plex database.

```auto
/TV Shows <-- TV Library points here. Name unimportant
.../A Dog's World with Tony Armstrong (2022) <-- show_name (year)
....../Season 01 <-- "Season" in English. Two digits for number.
........./A Dog's World with Tony Armstrong (2022) s01e01 Friendship.ext <-- ext = mkv/mp4/etc

```

Also, it is a new TV show not yet entered at [TVDB.com](http://TVDB.com). You will need to tell either the library or the show to use TMDB for episode information.

At the library level:

1. Edit the Library (See support doc above)
2. Choose Advanced
3. Choose The Movie Database for Episode Ordering
4. Refresh the metadata for the library.

At the show level:

1. Edit the show (click on the pencil icon)
2. Choose Advanced
3. Choose The Movie Database (Aired) for Episode Ordering
4. Refresh the metadata for the show
