Doing a Refresh Metadata did not correct the problem. Doing the “[Plex Dance](https://forums.plex.tv/t/the-plex-dance/197064)” seems to correct things. Verified that TVDB ordering was maintained after moving the “How Its Made” folder was moved back into the TV Library. Created a couple new test episodes and they matched ok.
