How do you go about finding specific items when it's prohibited to even ask? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I've been on 1337x, ABC, torrentquest, eztvx, msearch, and pretty much all of the other sites on the megathread, both for "greatest treasures" (the general purpose section) and the movies & TV section specifically. Yet, the show that my wife and I want to watch is nowhere to be found in any of these. We're confused why, as it's not exactly an unpopular show.

Despite it not seeming to exist in a torrent format anywhere, among many other shows, it is forbidden both here and elsewhere to ask for help on finding a specific title. I was just hoping to learn the reasoning why. Is it just because the forum would be flooded with people asking for titles instead of taking the time to dig through the resources? What are people supposed to do when they do dig through the resources then?

get an easy news membership, their search function to search all UseNet is the best

150 GB for $30 a month seems like a pretty bad deal..

Wow, that's shit. I've been with Newsgroup.ninja for the past.... decade. I'm grandfathered in on some /r/usenet promotion from a long time ago but they're still pretty cheap and offer the same retention as easynews. Everything is on usenet, it's just a matter of finding the right indexer, nice thing is the good indexers just want money so barring a few sites it's pretty easy to get started.
