You'll need to reformat the title:

Presumably, remove the (V) and add quote marks around the title. If you can't make it work, provide a link to the title and someone can give you exactly what you need, or do it for you.

Thank you, I tried removing the V and adding quotes but I keep getting told that I must add a (TV) then I do that and it says I cannot have a (TV) and the title in quotes. Below is a link to the show hopefully you can help

OK I've submitted the changes, it needed changing to:

"Food Deconstructed" (2012)

Adding (TV) to the end is only used for made for TV movies and TV specials.

It does also underline the need for another type - web series, which might make this kind of thing easier:

I have the same error, and haven't figured out how to correct this. 

Here is my title "The Sasha Marina Show"

Sasha: Your title is currently listed as The Sasha Marina Show (2013) (V) meaning that it is currently designated as a single direct-to-video production.

If it is supposed to be a TV series, you should submit a Title Correction to make it "The Sasha Marina Show" (2013) instead. (Note the quotation marks around the title and the lack of a (V) at the end.)

And just to cover the other possibilities:
The Sasha Marina Show (2013) would be a theatrical film.
The Sasha Marina Show (2013) (TV) would be a TV movie or TV special (i.e. a single TV program not part of a series).
The Sasha Marina Show (2013) (VG) would be a videogame.
