Hi,  
  
  
  
I’m trying to write an agent that fetches information w.r.t. TV Shows and was wondering how to retrieve the episode titles and the total number of episodes in a season from the parameters passed to the update function.  
  
Thanks in advance.  
  
  
  
Kind regards,  
  
  
  
Greg.

Hey, it's not clear when you begin, I know :)  
Take a look at my implementations for the movie and tv show on my podnapisi agent..

Thanks. I had found out how to do it in the meantime (I should have posted it here...).
