try:
    show = api.show.get(999999999)
except ShowNotFound as e:
    print(f"Not found: {e}")  # Show Not Found

# Catch any connection/HTTP error
try:
    episodes = api.show.episodes(1)
except ConnectionError as e:
    print(f"Network error: {e}")

# Catch any TvMaze error generically
try:
    person = api.people.get(999999999)
