Title: TV show IA

Hey all,

This is not a definite version yet intended for complete scrutiny, but I've been working on this for a couple of days and would love to get some early feedback.

This IA uses the www.tvmaze.com API to display all sorts of information about TV shows. Currently it answers to the generic query "$query tv show" with general information about that show, and to "$query next episode" with the name & airdate for that show's upcoming episode. If we want, it could be expanded to additional queries such as "popular tv shows", "$query previous episode", or "$query episode list".

Screenshots below, or you can play with it live on: http://duckdev.tvmaze.org:5000/?q=the+walking+dead+tv+show

I'd love some feedback about this IA in general, the layout / look & feel, and the templates that I've used. Specifically I wasn't very sure about the auxiliary template used in Show: I borrowed the HTML from the wikipedia IA, but that one doesn't seem to be included for this repository nor could I find the template that it's using? At first I tried to put the _record_ template there, but that looked pretty bad.

Also let me know if there's any additional information you'd like to see on these pages, or if you have ideas for additional answer types than I mentioned above :)
