I have been able to eliminate the dash (-) before non-series titles but, keep getting the series number twice (example: Kitty Norville 010 - 10 - Kitty Steals the Show).

My current template is:
{series} {series_index:0>3s} - {title}

I know I need to combine that somehow with the "| - |" part of the below:
{series} {series_index:| - |} {title}

I just know the answer will be something simple.

Any help will be appreciated.
the 010 has to be already in your series name (it will show outside the [ ] )
