Reading the other comments, it seems OP selected the wrong source and got ads that way. I tried to reproduce the situation by selecting a movie that was only available from Plex's streaming service and it said "The Films & TV source is currently disabled and will be re-enabled if you decide to continue." In my Plex account settings, under Online Media Sources, I disabled those sources.

I'm trying to figure out how I disabled "More Ways to Watch" on my account or server, I actually kinda liked the ability to find stuff even if it isn't on my server yet.
Edit: Didn't disable it, just needed to update my server. Now I think I should disable it anyway, because it's gumming up my search results honestly.
