This comes in handy when you have a show you keep downloaded, but do not religiously keep every single episode that is downloaded. Usage: Intended usage is to add one of the tags keep5, keep10, keep15, keepSeason, to any show you want to have this behaviour. Then simply add this script to run on a schedule and you should be all set.
