Description

When scraping some shows with incomplete metadata the TVDB scraper fails with the following error:

System.FormatException: String was not recognized as a valid DateTime.
   at TVDB.Model.Series.Deserialize(XmlNode node) in C:\Users\steph\Documents\GitHub\TheTVDBApi\src\TVDB\Model\Series.cs:line 896
   at TVDB.Web.WebInterface.<GetSeriesByName>d__16.MoveNext() in C:\Users\steph\Documents\GitHub\TheTVDBApi\src\TVDB\Web\WebInterface.cs:line 360

Assuming the repo is github.com/VDSoft/TheTVDBApi, I've noted in the source that for some reason DateTime values are using Parse() instead of TryParse(). In any case, the value is not reliable valid.

How to reproduce

This error is reliably reproducible when trying to scrape a folder named "Rush (2008)", or manually searching for "Rush" within the TV Shows tab. The IMDB ref for Rush is: tt1258216.
