I am trying to match the show, “Grand Maison Tokyo” (Grand Maison Tokyo (TV Series 2019-2019) — The Movie Database (TMDB)). But for some reason, Plex Series would only show it’s spin off, " Gura Gura Maison Tokyo: Shohei Hirako’s Swaying Emotions" (Gura Gura Maison Tokyo: Shohei Hirako's Swaying Emotions (TV Series 2019-2019) — The Movie Database (TMDB)).

Since from what I read is that the Plex Series Agent is taking data from TheMovieDB, there should be two seperate shows listed when I search for it. But for some reason, I have a feeling that the agent is combining them into one show, even tho they are seperate.

The only nearest result whenever I try to match it using Plex Series. Imgur: The magic of the Internet

Now, I can fix this by changing my agent to TheMovieDB, but man does Plex hates that. It keeps bugging me to “Upgrade your agent” or something.

Difficulties to match that series are to be expected, considering that they both aired in the same year, and their titles only differ in the second half.

Plex has a mechanism for this kind of situation.

/TV Shows
   / Grand Maison Tokyo (2019)  - {tmdb-95718}
      /Season 01
         Grand Maison Tokyo - s01e01 - Red Shrimp Étouffée.mp4
         ...

Keep the agent of the library at “Plex Series”. Don’t change it willy-nilly, it won’t do any good.
Rename your folders like above, then perform the Plex Dance with the whole show.

Hmm, I used the TVDB’s ID, so it was named Grand Maison Tokyo (2019) {tvdb-369654}. I’ll try to change it to TMDB’s ID if it changes anything

Does not work. After removing, did the plex dance, changing the folder name (both TVDB and TMDB) and re-scanning, Plex Series still returns the wrong title.

Which lead me to believe Plex Series agent itself has the wrong info, as the synopsis is correct.

I presume you can test this yourself, try creating either folder with a fake video and scanning it, it will return the wrong series.
