With series that works for me in MythVideo, but it could be a<br>
difference between the ttvdb lookupscript and the imdb lookupscript.<br>
It could be a bug in the imdb lookupscript where the parentheses are<br>
excluded of the name before a search is done.<br>
If I find time I might checkout the python script.<br>
