Yes and no. The issue is that IMDb does not provide any pagination, it seems. It loads the next episodes via the "see more link" with JavaScript. If you look at https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1355642/episodes/?season=1 , it does not contain all episodes. I can't fake that API request, as it uses some token that's set per-request.

As of now, this issue won't be resolved. If anyone finds a link to a "Page 2" for the link above, please let me know.
