I'm only a user, not a dev, but I like your suggestion of tv_grab_zz_sdjson, assuming zz is a reserved code that will never represent a country. In particular, I approve of zz_sdjson, not zz_sd_json.

There's a question of what to call other grabbers that use the same source. I'm not sure I like zz_sdjson2 as that looks like a version 2 of the grabber, or one that connects to a version 2 API. I would prefer something like zz_sdjson_alt.

Really, though, I think it would be best if there was only one official grabber for a data source, i.e. if the developers could work together.
