This is what I was coming here to look for.
Basically just needs to handle TV show movies as a dual lookup IMO.
As an example: I have all the Futurama movies available on my plex but Overseerr shows them as not available because they are in Sonarr/Plex but not Radarr.
Sonarr/Radarr are incompatible for TV movies (radarr requires 1 movie per folder, Sonarr by default puts all specials in a single folder)
Even worse example: TV episodes that are labeled as movies. Like Stargate SG-1 True Science (first 3 eps of season 1)

I'll take a look at the code in a bit and see if I can either just do it or offer more helpful feedback.

Would be great to see this added in, or at least a way to mark them as available so they won't be shown up in the discover section.

Just ran into this. Surprised this isn't a feature already. Is it much different than just pulling regular seasons? The data seems to be there in tvDB.
