Hi all,
TVShows gets the episodes from The Pirate Bay, so if your ISP is blocking TPB then TVShows gives that connection error when trying to download a .torrent file.
You can avoid that by activating the "prioritize magnets" option in TVShows preferences, this way it won't try to download the .torrent file (it will just get the magnet link, which doesn't need TPB access to work) so it will work anyway.
Please keep in mind that magnets are not compatible with the "save each show in its own folder" feature, and that you need to set a specific destination folder in Transmission (not "same as torrent") if you want the downloads to be automatic (if not, it will ask you where to save each file).
