Maybe five or six programs a month from that wish list. Now I get thirty or forty of them in a two day period. So, that doesn't work.


Hah! Talk about an understatement. I just now actually counted the shows it wanted to record (obviously it can't get all of them) and there are 135 of them just in the next 60 hours. I guess that means on average at any given minute of the day there are at least two Science/Nature programs. I guess my option here is to look through, pick out the few that I actually want, and then set up channel-specific season passes rather than an all-encompassing wish list.
