I have kodi on my Pi that is connected to my TV, I also have a copy of kodi on my desktop in order for me to work at it better until i get it right.
Like my my movies, once that i used the scraper that i downloaded on my computer to scrape my local videos that i have stored on a USB portable drive.
So for my Movies, I created the folder structure for them. Right now i'm working on three movies.

G\MOVIES/Black Sheep (1996)/movie file and movie information artwork and actors
G\MOVIES/White Lightning (1973)/movie file and movie information artwork and actors

so, i got that but on my TV Shows i have

G\TV SHOW/adventures of the Gummi Bears/season #/ episodes.

How do i rename the tv series episode. I went over to Kodi and went to TV Shows on the menu and click on Add Video.
I added the video source and browse for new share. I clicked on season and added it but when i go to season, it wouldn't show the episodes. 
How would my name my episodes.

Still working out the bugs on my TV shows.
Here in my link https://i.postimg.cc/9fRhQkNy/tv-2.png
The first image shows my TV Show of Adventures of the Gummi Bears, but it shows the episodes instead of the TV series.
The second image shows that i click on the TV Show items in the main menu and it shows nothing, not even the folder.

Look at your second image, top left corner - TV Shows / Titles: Watched

Change from Watched to All Videos in the left sideblade menu... https://kodi.wiki/view/Basic_controls#Sideblade_Menu

I went over to Media Setting and 
Video to Manage sources
I click on Add Videos to add the video source.

G\TV SHOW main source folder\Adventures of the Gummi Bears tv show folder\season 01 folder\ tv episodes

Once that i have added the source, I click on the source but the folder of the tv series and background shows up, but once that i have clicked on the TV show folder, it's empty, no season and episodes are found.
So, my guess is the episodes are no named right,

Adventures of the Gummi Bears s01e01 -thumb.jpg
Adventures of the Gummi Bears s01e01.mp4
Adventures of the Gummi Bears s01e01.nfo

I have a scrapper downloaded to my desktop called Media Companion. it works great, my movies amaze me when they appeared in the Kodi library.
But i still having issue with TV series and naming episodes. In the single episode file https://kodi.wiki/view/File:LocalEpisodeArtwork01.jpg i named everything like it shows, but that didn't work.

So, once that i scroll my mouse down to Tv shows on the main menu, at first i didn't see nothing, but like in that last post, i open the left side panel and selected all videos and they showed up.

This is a test that i'm working on for now to get a hang in it, but do each season that shown here https://postimg.cc/JtFvG3Fn show have the season poster. The scraper that i downloaded to my computer add along with artwork and nfo file the season poster label season02-poster.

Great. Problem fixed. You must have changed that setting by mistake at some stage.

Your image does not show the season view. But in answer to your question, yes each season should display the season poster if it was available at the scraper site at the time of scraping. Sometimes some shows don't have all the season posters available.
It will look like this...
