Bug with program search

There appears to be a bug with the interactive program search where if it finds too many results with the same keywords it will only display a few of them and not indicate that there were any other search results. At least that's what I think is going on.

For example, try searching for 'Good Wife' (or 'The Good Wife') on the main TV guide page and today the only search result shown is 'Bewitched' next Wednesday (18 Aug). The description for Bewitched contains both the words 'good' and 'wife'. But no series 'The Good Wife' (past or current) is listed in the search results.

Search for '"The Good Wife"' (i.e with quotes) though and it does show that series in the results as "Not upcoming in the next 7 days".

Similarly, searching for 'Thomas' does not show 'Thomas & Friends', but searching for 'Thomas friends' does show this series.

Is this a bug?
