Organize reboots/versions of the same show - nocturnalnerd - 2025-02-17
I need help organizing this specific show that has a weird pattern:
Show: Berserk
IT has
An anime aired in 1997 (26 episodes) https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/35935?language=en-US
An anime aired in 2016 who has two seasons, it doesn't overlap with the original series, but is not a continuation https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/66053?language=en-US
Three movies
If I place everything inside a folder called Berserk (it doesn't recognize properly the 2016 series, if I try to help with the tmdbid, it just shows it as part of the name (probably expects this id to be in the main folder) but I cant do that because 1997 and 2016 are two different shows.
If there any way for me to organize it all within a common Berserk root folder,, mind you, there are movies in the mix as well

Proper naming of shows should include the year in the title, as shown below. For tricky titles you can also include the TMDb ID.
