Hey crew! I often run into the issue that I can't find usenet entries for reasonably mainstream stuff. Example: "and just like that", a quite recent, mainstream-ish tv series. Second season is super available (dropped this year), first one has massive health problems and a lot of missing episodes. The first season is from 2021.

Using the inebriated slug and the geek terrestrial object as indexers with news demon as a provider.

Is there a trick to finding content or do I just have to live with some stuff / episodes / seasons not being available?

It's recommended to have two providers, one for monthly and one block account, on two seperate backbones. I think /r/piracy or /r/Usenet has a list, and as whirlybird mentioned just add the show to sonarr and it'll eventually grab it.

If you don't have any *are suite I highly recommend getting that set up. Sonarr for tv shows, radarr for movies. It's all set and forget, just add the content you are after and the *are does the rest. You just add your indexer(s), add the provider(s) and you're sorted.
