  Hm, this is probably a unicode problem..

  When it searches for "Tình Người Hiện Đại", the URL tvdb_api grabs is..

  h_ttp://www.thetvdb.com/api/GetSeries.php?seriesname=t%C3%ACnh%20ng%C6%B0%E1%BB%9Di%20hi%E1%BB%87n%20%C4%90%E1%BA%A1i

  ..which returns nothing - I think it might be urllib.quote()'s fault, as searching for the show on thetvdb's site works, but escapes the unicode characters differently..

  Ben, Here is a patch that allows series searches to be language specific.

  332c332
  <         self.config['url_getSeries'] = "%(base_url)s/api/GetSeries.php?seriesname=%%s" % self.config
  ---
  >         self.config['url_getSeries'] = "%(base_url)s/api/GetSeries.php?seriesname=%%s&language=%%s" % self.config
  430,431c430,431
  <         series = urllib.quote(series)
  <         seriesEt = self._getetsrc(self.config['url_getSeries'] % (series))
  ---
  >         series = urllib.quote(series.encode("utf-8"))
  >         seriesEt = self._getetsrc(self.config['url_getSeries'] % (series, self.config['language']))

  Commited as 0ae110764392a116d6a1e5117fd23f30454dff93, with a slight change - since config['language'] doesn't change after __init__, you can simply do %(language)s (as is done with base_url in the same string). Should be functionally identical, just slightly tidier.
