Yes, you might see a temporary impact but it will soon improve.

make sure you add 301 redirect from /episode/1x1 to /episode/season-1-episode-1 and it should be fine

Like @Snajperist pointed out, you can 301 it.
301s are a pain in the ass and aren't necessarily ideal. If you're trying to change the URL structure to make it more intuitive for users who see you in the SERPs, you might look into https://www.google.com/search?q=breadcrumbs+in+google+search+results&oq=breadcrumbs+in+google+&aqs=chrome.0.0j69i57j0l4.2980j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8.
You can configure those with metadata/markup embedded into your webpages:
https://developers.google.com/search/docs/data-types/breadcrumbs
Which essentially replace the URL in SERPs with a path like "The Office > Season 1 > Episode 1"
If the change is more intended to impact the onpage SEO / keyword density / target keywords, you can generally achieve a similar result by adjusting title tags and headings instead.
