sorry for the newbieness but what is the best way to request something like a movie title without pulling anything else?
say I do the following: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/tv/1399/season/6?api_key=[api], a lot comes back from this but what if I only need Episodes titles? is there a way to ONLY extract what I need or do I request all of it and then sort it out on my end?
thanks!

Hi rootraid,
For a movie title, just a bare movie request (which will return lots of fields):
For episode titles, ya, the season call would be the simplest.
We don't support calling field subsets.
