Sonarr is a program that will automatically curate a library of TV shows, searching for new episodes of watched programs automatically. It can be combined with Radarr that does the same for movies, and Lidarr which does the same for music.
These can connect directly to torrent sites and NZB indexing sites via an "API" (Application Programming Interface, a way for a program to browse a website in this case), or via aggregator programs such as NZBhydra and Jackett, which "wrap" multiple NZB sites (in the case of NZBhydra) or torrent sites (in the case of Jackett) and present them to Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr.
An application such as Ombi can connect to Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr to provide a "Requests" system for friends/family. Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr can be linked to websites like Trakt to automatically download popular films.
Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr don't actually do any downloading, rather they monitor for NZBs/torrents and pass these to Sabnzbd (for NZBs) or Deluge (for torrents) to download, monitor the download process, and then sort, rename, and organise downloaded items into folders.
Plex is then a media streaming solution, that can give you a "Netflix Like" streaming experience, with subtitles, synopsis, actor information, watched status, transcoding, resume where you left off, next episode on deck, share with family functionality.
This is a lot of individual programs, but once set up you have a very easy to use automatic system for downloading and viewing your favourite shows.
