The new mechanism does work with some other series so I suspect that 
there may be a confusion with another series called Frontline that has a 
different intref number.

I'm glad that you are working on improving the metadata lookup because I 
find the metadata collection for recordings doesn't work very well for 
me especially when new series are recorded and when using a power rule 
to record 9 and 10 star movies. For example, it seems that instead of 
using the film title it uses the search title:

/usr/share/mythtv/metadata/Television/ttvdb.py -l en -a US -M top films 
(Power Search)
