Is it me, TVReName or TVDB that might be Hacked?

A few days ago nonexistent episodes of TV shows started showing up in my "Missing" list.

In the attached image Lucifer, Stranger Things and the Young Sheldon episode don't exist according to TVDB and the Show names all have a reference to a YouTube channel called DisguisedWolfTV.

Thoughts?

Hassan,  I'm both saddened and glad to hear that I'm not the only one having this issue as I've run numerous different Malware, Virus scanners, etc. all report back my computer is clean.

Refreshing the show got rid of the fake episode. I imagine someone tried to get some free advertising by editing the TVDB pages for these shows and that this was quickly undone.

I had a few random future episodes as well.  Refreshing the shows fixed it for me.

Thanks, the forced refresh worked here as well.  Never would have thought of that myself.
