Looking for a bulk episode renaming application for Linux (beehaw.org)

Hey all. I'm looking for a bulk episode renaming application for Linux, preferably GUI. Before switching, I used Rename My TV Series 2 on Winblow. But I can't seem to get it to work on my Pop_os 22.04. Any good alternatives would be appreciated. Thanks!

Update: A lot of the suggestions seemed too high level for what I wanted; I don't care about how the images or posters look, I just wanted to remove the excess junk at the end of the episode names easily. The point is "H265 CougarDiverRips 1080p" isn't really important after I download it.

Solution: Rename My TV Series 2 Linux version kept giving sqlite errors even after installing required dependencies. So I installed the Winblows version with wine. Works as expected without errors, simple drag and drop select series and go.

Filebot is awesome!
It's a paid app, but you can use version 4.7.9 for free. However I think it's totally worth the $6 for a year. They also have a Lifetime Universal license if you find yourself using it often.

I tried the 4.7.9 version gives a lot of errors.
...and subscriptions suck.

They have a Lifetime one-time purchase. You can also download the latest version and try it on your files to see if it works the way you expect before you buy it.
