I know, I should probably post this one on the Tivo forums, but it's always easier to just get questions answered on this forum...

I'm channel flipping and I come across some syndicated Buffy episodes. I figure... Hey, I could probably stand to watch a few of these now that I've got a Tivo. (I was never a Buffy watcher before.)

But I don't want to hit "season pass" because I'm not that into it yet. I just want to tell the Tivo that it would do well to record them for me once in a while. So I press Thumbs Up while watching the Buffy episode.

Then, later the episode ends. And on the same channel, another episode airs afterwards.

But the Tivo doesn't record it.

The Tivo has two tuners and it's not busy recording anything else at all at the moment.

I thought the point of Thumbs Up was to tell the Tivo what I liked and didn't like. Why wouldn't it record another episode of something I just thumbs-upped?
