If you had Tivo, you'd be able to add (now) any of these pilots you think may be good and get to see any that get picked up and make it to a UK channel.

What other Tivo features are the not emphasising?
I posted on that review/blog that TiVo would record on 3 channels while watching a previous recording, but you are right, VM should jump on these mistakes, WHF are not the only review sight with incorrect information on important features.

I'll have to wait until a few weeks before and press my green button , the Alcatraz one is in the never miss database.

That's interesting. Maybe it's had an early pickup since that list was done and Sky have bought the rights? Or is it a different Alcatraz?

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

When a group of missing Alcatraz prisoners turn up in the present day it is left to the FBI and a female police officer to track them down and solve the mystery surrounding their dissapearance 30 years ago. Produced by JJ Abrams, this spooky series sports an impressive all-star cast and crew.

It says coming 2011/12 you can add to be reminded may just do that so thanks.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

I do not hope that it is meant to be true to life as only no-one has escaped and lived to say?

But who knows?

This thread has lost it's way totally! It should not have been given a new lease of life. In the absence of anything new people are going over old ground again and again.

It is about tivo; it's about the wishlist functionality using real world examples of what the wishlist functionality will do.

We're highlighting functionality as the VM PR department sometimes don't seem to (see the post No. 48 on the What HIFI review).

Yes but it could easily be in another thread such as functionality rather discussing a series link.

The functionality is tivo functionality; I would have thought it belongs in the tivo thread.

We weren't discussing a series link; you can't add a show that doesn't exist to a series link. But you can (and this is a major Tivo feature and the point being made) add it to a wishlist.
