Fetch the episode list for a specific season of a specific show possible in a single call?

Hi. I'm trying to fetch the episode list for season 6 only of the show "The 100" but I can't figure out how to do this in a single call. I can fetch the entire episode list for all seasons and filter out season 6 but that's not great and gets worse the more seasons a show has since it involves fetching way more data than I need and then looping through it all. So, is it possible to ask the API to `return just season 6 episodes (preferably with episode titles and air dates) from "The 100"`? If so, will someone please provide an example?

Thanks!

Fetch a list of seasons http://api.tvmaze.com/shows/6/seasons, find season ID (85493), fetch list of episodes http://api.tvmaze.com/seasons/85493/episodes

Is this what you want? :)

Just to clarify, it isn't possible to do it in one API call.

However, tnt's reply will reduce the overhead that you're facing.
