+1 for Radarr, it does everything you want plus so much more, highly recommend you try it out, one of the best tools to self host if you enjoy movies.

If the series you’re trying to pull is region locked then youtube-dl would need the VPN to get around the region locking, at least that has been my experience.

I have used youtube-dl with proton VPN and it works fine, I often have to use a US location to access a lot of stuff that Tubi doesn’t offer in my country. You should be able to do the same.

Youtube-dl pulls from Tubi without issue in my experience.
