Although not documented, it appears that the search works only for > 3 characters reliably.

curl "http://www.omdbapi.com?apikey=$OMDB&s=abc&type=series&y=2001&page=1"

so the search is broken and cannot be used properly. Will someone on the development team be fixing this otherwise its pointless to use.!
