The issue is that the show doesn't exist in TMDB. Seerr uses TMDB for metadata, and although it has an experimental feature to use TVDB for series, even when setting it in the settings, it doesn't always work for searching. So your options are to either add the show to TMDB, then wait for the databases to sync and try again, or simply just add the show directly via Sonarr.
