Added new show but site will not allow special characters?

I just added this show to the site "Bloomberg <GO>" however the site would not allow the < > marks stating they are invalid so I had to add it without them. Can you please force these characters in so the title shows correctly?

I believe currently this is impossible as the title can't even be added as a AKA.

Hrm, that's indeed not allowed in a show name, for security purposes. (To the technical people reading along: no worries, we use sanitization or escaping everywhere on the site. However, we also block HTML tags in places like show & episode names to protect the people that use our API who might not be as stringent).

I don't think we'll change this to accommodate a single show. You hereby have my permission to keep it listed as "Bloomberg Go". :)
