According to my 'sources' context menu in Kodi it's set to use 'TMDb TV Shows'... not sure why it wouldn't be using it?
Edit: Ok, it looks like JUST 'The Simpsons' was set to tvdb scraper... that's absurd!

I'm having an issue with this scraper and the show "Reno 911!", not sure if maybe its because of the "!".
If I scrape with the "tvdb (new)" scraper it works fine and the show pops up in my library, but it doesn't provide the clearart and stuff from fanart.tv
If I scrape with the "tmdb tv show" scraper I can see it finds the show and downloads lots of stuff, but then the show disappears from my library when its done.

I'm having trouble finding a paste site that allows large enough pastes. My log is 5,122 KB
On the link you gave I see a reference to use paste.ubuntu.com for very large pastes so I created an account and everything but it gives me a 502 error when I try to actually paste something.

Aha! Thats it, thank you.
No local artwork, just the nfo.
I removed the artwork from one episode and that one scanned into the library. Ill just set sonarr to not include the nfo then. I was using sonarr's nfos because a couple years ago I was having trouble with certain shows scanning in kodi because of non-standard filenames, where sonar would already have it matched without needing the filename.
Seasons 1-6 aired years ago and are already deleted.

ohh, wait, I spoke too soon.
If I remove the nfo's that were generated by sonarr altogether the show disappears from kodi library again. It only works if I use the nfo but remove the <thumb> line.
Also worth noting that I have many other shows that were imported from sonarr the same way going back many years and they work fine, with or without the nfo. Its only this one show.

Oh, interesting. That must be why the tvdb scraper works and tmdb doesn't then.
So I guess the best solution for me at the moment is probably to just use the tvdb scraper for this show and suppliment with artwork downloader for the clear logo and stuff.
