I want to start out by saying thank you for making an API that is actually easy to use and has the endpoints you would naturally needed to look up information about a show and episode. It is such a sane approach compared to how the TVDB is structured.
I would like to make a feature request which hopefully isn't too hard to add. I would be happy to help add it if there is a way for me to do that? Via a PR?
It seems like the main site is able to display cast and guest cast at an episode level. Is there any chance to extend the current show and episode endpoints to support the embedding feature?

Something like adding embed[]=xxx where xxx can be one of the following values: cast (cast members of the show present in the episode), guests (guest stars / cast members present in the episode), and if the data exists crew (crew members present in the episode).
Thank so much for all the hard work and making such an amazing site.
