AppleTV app on iOS/iPadOS 18.4.1 only sees season 1 from TV Home Sharing from macOS Sequoia

I finally updated my iPhone and iPad to 18.4.1. Now on my iPad and iPhone, when I do Home Sharing in the Apple TV app, to view my video library on my macOS 15.4.1, for TV Shows, I only see season 1. On the iPad/Phone, it will say 157 episodes for a show, but then only show the 30 episodes in Season 1.


I can see all the seasons from other devices (an Apple TV hardware box, an older iMac, etc.). And, prior to updating my iPhone and iPad, I could see all of the seasons of TV Shows hosted on the macOS 15.4.1 M4 Mini.


(I tried restoring my iPad from backup, but it didn't restore the OS to 17. I'm so disappointed in this round of Apple software.)


Any thoughts?

iPad Air, iPadOS 18

*** Unfortunately, this bug is still present in iPadOS 18.5 ***


For me, it's not showing only season 1 of shows, it "picks" a random season for shows affected, so one might only show season 1, while another only shows season 3. More interesting is that not all of my shows are affected, some display all available seasons correctly. I certainly hope Apple fixes this soon as this bug makes using Home Sharing in the TV app useless.
