Yes I had problems since at least the 7th July with artwork using metadata.tvshows.themoviedb.org-3.5.13
I'm using OSMC with Kodi 18 but I only use that box for 4k tv shows so adding new shows is not that common.
I didn't notice initially because on the 7th it was Black Summer I added and it downloaded a banner image for the poster, which I though was odd but didn't investigate.
Yesterday I added another TV show, Clarkson's Farm, and got no artwork at all so I went investigating. On the TMDB site there is artwork.
I switched the scraper for just those two shows to TMDB TV Show scraper (python) and it pulled down posters and other artwork for both Black Summer and Clarkson's Farm.
I chose another show still using metadata.tvshows.themoviedb.org-3.5.13 and looked under Choose Art for alternative posters, and it displayed them, then I did a refresh on that show and the poster was removed and under Choose Art nothing was available.
So I switched my default TV scraper to TMDB TV Show scraper (python) and even though rescraping every tv show took longer than I would have expected every show eventually had artwork and metadata.
If I had to guess I'd say that whatever API layout changes were made that affected metadata.common.themoviedb.org is also affecting metadata.tvshows.themoviedb.org but not metadata.tvshows.themoviedb.org.python
