Yeah, myth's software was written to match on titles rather than things
like the seriesid field which zap2it provides.   You could do an sql
query in myth's advanced query, or in tvwish, looking for.

    seriesid = 'SH710749'

Or you could also do a query for battlestar galactica with;

        orignalairdate > '2004-01-01'

(Or similar, you may need some functions on the date there, I can't write
those date queries in my head without testing..)
