Decided to double-check what the DVR was going to do Friday evening for the Series 2 premiere of Doctor Who on Sci Fi.
Glad I did, because (a) it was setting itself up to record the full-day marathon of Series 1 episodes (even though I have it flagged to just record first-run stuff), and (b) it was not setting itself up to record the extended length Doctor Who: The Christmas Invasion true sorta-actual Series 2 premiere, since the title was not (as the DVR rather simplistically noted) Doctor Who.
It was, however set up to record the new Doctor Who (so-named) episode. So it’s worth something. Yeah, it ain’t a TiVo. On the other hand, I have a pretty good chance of actually being able to watch all this stuff Saturday (since I’ll be out Friday night).
So, anyway, for those of you recording Doctor Who on Friday — double-check that you’ve got everything set up that you want to catch.
Thanks for the tip! I doublechecked to be sure. 🙂
We caught it in time – and then had the presence of brains to record the second showing of the “premiere” episode, since it conflicted with Numb3rs… Ah, DVR goodness.
