They don't; It's stated pretty clearly on How to Write an Example: "Listing a character name, episode name, or actor's name is no substitute for the series name. (No, not even if you Pot Hole it.)"

Emphasis on the last part. Whomever is saying otherwise ought to be given a tap on the shoulder.

Their response is that it is the same name.

Then it should still say something like "In [insert title here], [insert title character here] does such and such"
