Is there a way to get the summary for a single show season? I don't see anything besides all show seasons.
Surprisingly it's not in the documentation.
You can do this, but as far as I know, only if you already know the ID number of the season;
http://api.tvmaze.com/seasons/ID
In other words, it's only really useful if you've already queried all of it once and just want to query a single season again.

Thanks for the reply. I was more looking for searching for a season by number, like the equivilant episodebynumber method that exists.
That's not available, you'll have to iterate over the show/seasons endpoint and extract the season you're looking for.

Will this be implemented in the future? I'd also really like a way to extract a single seasons episodes, without requesting all episodes.
maybe I am misunderstanding the original question and answer, but don't you just have to click on the season link in the show's episode list to see the summary for that season (if one has been added). Also when on an episode page you can click on the season link in the side info panel.
for example: http://www.tvmaze.com/shows/82/game-of-thrones/episodes you click on season 5 and it shows you a season summary.
Sorry if this is not what was meant....
@Rickiesgal
This is in the API forum; they're wanting to be able to do this through the API
oh oops! I'll put my glasses on next time ;)
