In Kodi I am able to add movies without issue but TVShows are not added. I think it is due to the API trying to find a TVShow with the wrong ID and am looking to see how to rectify this:

Seems that the ID for Napoleon (2002) should be 2701 "https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/2701-napol-on" If you go to "https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/13901-napoleon" you get an error on the page "Oops! We can't find the page you're looking for"

Looking to see how to rectify this.

Many Thanks.

13901 was a duplicate page that has been removed. The correct one is 2701.

You will have to completely remove your series from Kodi and rescrape it from scratch.

Did that and am seeing the series being re-added in the list but with no episodes in it.

You will have to ask the Kodi support team for more help.

But my opinion is that you didn't remove completely the old version of the show from Kodi.
