Browse the TVmaze show database with pagination. Returns a paginated list of shows sorted by TVmaze ID (incremental). This is useful for building a complete show catalog or discovering shows without a specific search term. Results include basic show info, not full details.

Original spec description

List of all shows in the database, paginated. Maximum 250 shows per page.

Usage Tips

- Default page size is 250 shows - Use 'page' parameter for pagination (0-indexed) - Total count available via shows count endpoint - This is a heavy endpoint - consider using search instead if possible
