U.S. Release on HGTV has Significantly Different Episodes

The U.S. release of this show on HGTV (currently available on Hulu) appears to have significantly different episodes.
Should these be added as a completely different TV show or as a different season? I read the support site, and other than indicating that it probably shouldn't be added as a new/different show, it does provide clear direction as to what to do. I'm happy to make the edits or add a new show, but I'm looking for direction as to what to do. Thanks!
The current episodes are as follows:
Season 1, Episode 1 Meet the Chateau Designer Angel and her fiance Dick fell in love with a fairytale castle in France -- ignoring that it has no heat or electricity. Against all odds, they must come up with clever solutions to prepare the chateau for their upcoming wedding and 200 guests.
Season 1, Episode 2 Fairytale Wedding Dick and Angel race against time to decorate the chateau, build a bathroom for the guests and prep the orangery before their wedding day. Guests begin to arrive and are put to work to finish the chateau in time.
Season 1, Episode 3 Open for Business Dick and Angel kick off their event business and scramble to prep the chateau for their first customers. With no time to spare and little money to spend, they design and renovate a second guest suite themselves and devise a plan to install an elevator.
Season 1, Episode 4 Christmas and Curiosities Dick and Angel reveal the Tower of Curiosities -- a turret with a 50-foot glass elevator inside. Together they decorate the tower with treasures found around the estate just in time for their first family Christmas in the chateau.
Season 1, Episode 5 Never a Dull Day A ferocious winter storm nearly blows the roof off the Chateau, and Angel buys a beat up van only to crash land it into the barn. Then, the Strawbridge Suite is finally finished -- complete with Angel's safari-carnival mash-up design.
Season 1, Episode 6 Surprise Proposal The Chateau is buzzing with anticipation as guests come for dinner and a marriage proposal is on the menu. Dick tames the walled garden and restores a Victorian greenhouse, while Angel designs a sultry guest suite with a black and gold Art-Deco theme.

There is no support for alternative versions. If HGTV is simply airing the old episodes in a new order, you can use an episode group. But if the HGTV episodes were created from bits and pieces of the original episodes, there's nothing we can do.
