Yep, I've seen them. I tested with:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MythTV/mythtv/master/mythtv/programs/
scripts/metadata/Television/ttvdb.py

Just while writing the first reply. The covers are shown in output on console 
as expected (OK, it's the series-poster, not the one from the actual season), 
but in frontend, when deleting details and then pressing "w" (I renamed the 
seasonposter before) I still get no new poster.
