Simpsons API

tl;dr click here to go to a good episode on Disney+

This is a minimal Simpsons JSON and redirect API based on the dataset over here. It redirects you to the episode on Disney+, or serves up some basic episode JSON about episodes (if you set the right headers).

A login to Disney+ is necessary, but they give you a free preview, so hey.

I made this because there are some outstanding Simpsons episodes and some very bad ones. This lets you click the "Show me a random episode" button without fear that you're going to have to accidentally wind up on All Singing, All Dancing.

Some endpoints of interest:

• Get redirected to a good episode at /episodes/good/ and a random episode at /episodes/random/.
• Point your browser at /episodes/s/{SEASON_NUMBER}/e/{EPISODE_NUMBER}/ to go to that episode.
• Request any episodes url with headers `Accept: application/json` to get some data back as json. Try it out: `curl -H "Accept: application/json" https://www.simpsonsoptimizer.com/episodes/s/5/e/2/`
• Request /episodes/s/{SEASON_NUMBER}/ to get season data back as json.
• Still extremely a work in progress so don't get any URLs tattooed on you or anything.

If you want to complain that I marked your favorite episode as bad, please make a pull request or open an issue.

(Sorry about the api outage for a little while in July, this is a node app and those sometimes get mad if you don't update em for awhile.)
