No problem, I do not use Plex but I am sure the other members can give you a lot of help. Enjoy the program.Hello, I’m not sure if this is the appropriate place to post this.
Similar to the previous replies. My "TV Show" folder/repository, as an example, looks something like this: TV Shows / Dennis the Menace / Season 01 / Dennis the Menace - S01E01 - So Long Old Paint.mp4

So I use Plex heavily and what everyone is saying is correct with one caveat. You can now put all the files under one folder. You no longer need a Season folder per season. I mean you can do that if you wish you just no longer have too.
So this works for me.
SHOW NAME (Folder)
|
Show Name - S01E01 - Description.mp4
Show Name - S02E01 - Description.mp4
With that said I have used season folders and not used them, either way works fine.
... Although, sometimes if the show is a reboot it will get the wrong one. You just have to fix the match and choose the right year in Plex.

Here is the Show Template I use and it works as expected. Although, sometimes if the show is a reboot it will get the wrong one. You just have to fix the match and choose the right year in Plex.

Hello, I’m not sure if this is the appropriate place to post this. But for those who are using any stream for TV series, how are you naming the files so Plex automatically organizes the show into proper season / episode?
Any good tips for naming shows that on the streaming platform are combined but are organized on tv show databases separately? e.g. Spongebob in Paramount+ for season 1 is 20 episodes but on TVDB & TMDB is 41 episodes?
The only way I know to solve this is manually go over each episode and using the plex multi-episode format. For some tv shows like spongebob this is god aweful since there are so many

Plex no longer requires that seasons reside in their own seasonal folder
When did that change happen?
Maybe a year or 2 ago.
