Good point, but the strange this is that this only happens to this show.
All other queries respond within the given timeout.
I haven't been hammering the server, but tried this at 5 to 10 different
instances for the last 2 weeks. All requests timeout for this tv show
only. I might have been extremely unlucky with the timing of all my
request tries, but I doubt it.
I am not going to make this a permanent timeout, just to test that it is
the timeout that is the problem, and not something else.
