Have you tried cleaning the library?
Settings > Video > Library > Clean Library

Check your database using sqlite3 or similar. They'll be there because the paths are in the path table, possibly with content set on them. Clear them out from there and they should not reappear.

In file view make sure that the content set for the TV folder is set to "None" so that future library updates/scans don't re-add it: Adding videos to the library/Removing videos (wiki). This should also pop up a window asking if you want to update the library with this change which should remove the show. If it doesn't, you can simply select it in library view and bring up the contextual menu and select "remove from library".

"Remove from library" doesn't work if the directory containing the show had been removed. It seems that the show is still in the db and when "Update library" is done, the show is re-added. "Clean library" worked, however.

I tried it (delete from path table), and the library clean feature did not remove the TvShow from video db.
But
Deleting from tvshow table did the trick : no more record of the deleted TvShow
(Im working on a SQLite query that will remove records in the tvshow table for which no related video file is found, in case of success, ill post it there)
