If you get the episodes list from the URL of an image, this will not work well.
This is up to your application to accomodate for large datasets.

There is nothing to paginate here as you are requesting data for one single show.
It's up to your application to accomodate the size of the episodes list.

Test using a new tab in your browser.
Use your example URL with your API Key.
In the new tab, in my Firefox, there is a header with options.
Click "Expand All (slow)".
You will see the complete list.
There are 2183 Episodes in Season 1.
That's why it needs to expand.

Ok but in app I have implemented like it will show you the respective season details and the episode lists , and in the respsonse we have got that in app I have not implemented of expand all (show) as you have mentioned above for the browser when the season details are loaded we will get the episode lists at app but for the list where it has large datasets its little difficult and the main reason is that I am getting the status 404 while loading the image thats y I am saying that if in this response can we implement three parameters like page,total_page,total_episode Y because for rest of the api where we have many lists over there its working and may be the episode lists might be get increased in the future use so thats Y I was saying about paginate.
