Hi,

A workaround is to create the Genre within the Home Videos grouping of movies.  
This should now add it to the main grouping that you can choose from when 
manipulating the purchased items.  You'll need to modify one of your Home 
videos, then go into the purchased ones, set it to the new genre then you 
should be able to go back to the Home Videos and change it back to its original 
genre.  There needs to be at least one item with that genre for it to appear in 
the list.  I haven't tested this with a lot of videos, but it did work on one.

Later...

Hi Tim,
  This works as always in Home Videos. Not in Movies (purchased). If a genre 
does not already exist, I cannot type one in. I do not recall if I could do 
this in iTunes but then I did not have to learn how to work with the new 
changes. This is where I think Apple could have left well enough alone.
