Description
Sometimes there are TV series that air with the same name in different countries, mostly reality shows like So You Think You Can Dance.
In that case, the US one is released with files as "So.You.Think.You.Can.Dance.S01E..." and the Australian one was "So.You.Think.You.Can.Dance.AU.S01E...".
We can make the client extract those country codes and send them as another parameter, and I think TMDB has a field like originCountry we can use to validate on the server
