I found my mistake. "System internal" permissions inside the NAS Shared Folder. Jellyfin did not have permission to read/write inside the folder. I totally forgot that I did this when I initially set up my Movie library. I deleted the old Shows library inside jellyfin and created a new one after giving it permissions on the NAS. Now it works. 

So far all topics I searched that mentioned permissions it never was specified where to change them. I assumed it was something inside jellyfin but obviously that was not the case. I hope this is to anyones help in the future.

I had had this issue as well, and I'm using the local drive, no NAS. Permissions are correct - same as the Movies and Home Movies folders. Shows folder does just not discover any files inside it.

WORKAROUND: Create the new Library and set the content to be 'Mixed Movies and Shows'. This worked.
Did the exact same thing with Shows, same options, everything - doesn't work. I think its a bug.

Update: the Workaround method posted by auk (create a new library as "Mixed Movies and Shows") worked for me also. Thanks for posting this!

I don't recall this being an option previously.

The permission issue karg mentioned were not applicable to my system as the permissions were already in order
