It needs an update because themoviedb.org changed it’s API which caused Thumbgen to not work correctly for moviesheets. There are many many posts on this board about this.

There is a nice tutorial created by Tinwarble on how to use Thumbgen for TV shows. You can find it here. I suggest you download it and read it. It will show you what settings you need.
