/POST error while accessing the TVDB database

I am using the tvdb database for an project. With my present code, I am unable to fetch any data from the database. When I do a post request, the request never ends unless I manually cancel it. Is it the apikey or the Client not properly constructed. Please help.

app.js

var express = require('express');
var path = require('path');
var favicon = require('serve-favicon');
var logger = require('morgan');
var cookieParser = require('cookie-parser');
var bodyParser = require('body-parser');

var TVDB = require('node-tvdb');
var async = require('async');
var _ = require('lodash');

var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var bcrypt = require('bcryptjs');

var config = require('./config');

mongoose.connect(config.mongoUrl);
var db = mongoose.connection;
db.on('error', console.error.bind(console, 'connection error:'));
db.once('open', function(){
    //we're connected
    console.log("Connected correctly to the server");
});

var index = require('./routes/index');
var users = require('./routes/users');
var showRouter = require('./routes/showRouter');
var episodeRouter = require('./routes/episodeRouter');

var app = express();   

app.use(logger('dev'));
app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({extended: false}));
app.use(cookieParser());

app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));

app.use('/', index);
app.use('/users', users);
app.use('/shows', showRouter);
app.use('/episodes', episodeRouter);

// catch 404 and forward to error handler
app.use(function(req, res, next) {
  var err = new Error('Not Found');
  err.status = 404;
  next(err);
});

// error handler
app.use(function(err, req, res, next) {
  // set locals, only providing error in development
  res.locals.message = err.message;
  res.locals.error = req.app.get('env') === 'development' ? err : {};

  // render the error page
  res.status(err.status || 500);
  res.render('error');
});
