Maybe Kilrsat can chime in, but I am not aware of any property bags with actual duplicates, instead the values would be comma delimited (i.e. Genre, Actors, etc.) As far as I know, they were simply an artificial construct of daWanderer for the developer's benefit... As noted, you can still use bagHelper.Add(PVSProperty) if you want to bypass this behavior...

If you do not agree I will be branching BTVLibrary as I DO want to know EXACTLY what the service is returning.

You probably don't need to go through that much trouble, instead of using:

PropertyBagHelper bagHelper = new PropertyBagHelper(pvsBag);

just use:

PropertyBagHelper bagHelper = NewBagHelper(pvsBag);

with:

public PropertyBagHelper NewBagHelper(PVSPropertyBag pvsBag)
{
    PropertyBagHelper bagHelper = new PropertyBagHelper();

    Foreach (PVSProperty prop in pvsBag) bagHelper.Add(prop);

   Return BagHelper;
}
