TV Show not importing to library

Server Version#: 1.20.2.3402
Ubuntu

Hi there. I have 99% of my movie / tv library imported correctly. I have like 10 shows that won’t import to the library. The below video I went in with AtomicParsley and I saw that the file Crane.m4v did not have any metadata so I added in the basic series name, show name, season #, and episode #. Now it will show up in the logs when I run a manual scan but, still does not show up in the library? Any advice?

Mod-Edit: added some code-tag around that log to make it easier to read

Let’s start with naming them in a way that Plex will recognize.
Plex will ignore files that don’t have a pattern identifying them as tv-show files.

Just because your file naming and file structure has worked in the past, does not mean it will continue to work.

It will work, till it doesn’t.
