Two Shows with Same Name

[Cryptic]

Sonarr version (exact version):
2.0.0.5163
Mono version (if Sonarr is not running on Windows): 5.8.0.108
OS: Synology 6.1

Description of issue:

This is more of a dumb TheTVDB issue but Sonarr does not handle it. Looks like someone is recording the 2018 Season as Season 3 of the 2016 show. But the cappers are treating it as a new show.

There are two series with basically the same name.

American Ninja Warrior: Ninja Vs Ninja (2018) https://www.thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=343648
American Ninja Warrior: Ninja Vs. Ninja (2016) - https://www.thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=304813

I have them in separate directories with the year in the title like:
Media\Family TV\American Ninja Warrior- Ninja vs Ninja (2018)\Season 01
Media\Family TV\American Ninja Warrior- Ninja vs. Ninja (2016)\Season 01

Both cannot be added at the same time to Sonarr.

I get an error message adding the second series:

Title slug ‘american-ninja-warrior-ninja-vs-ninja’ is in use by series ‘American Ninja Warrior: Ninja vs. Ninja’

This is something the TVDB mods should weigh in on before we do anything. I expect that they’ll either drop the new series, making it a pain to link since the release groups are starting at season 1 again or they’ll want to change the name since they are too similar.

Thanks for looking into it. Hopefully the TVdb will fix it.
