How? Show on Two Channels

I wonder if a more experienced TiVoid can help me. Some of my favorite
shows are on both a major network (first run) and a cable channel (in
syndication). E.R., for example, is of course still doing Thursday
nights on NBC - and running old episodes on TNT.

How can I set the TiVo to get a season pass for the episodes on TNT but
not the ones on NBC?

How can I do the opposite?

One of my shows runs on THREE channels: Court TV, TNT, and network!

Jay is correct, Season Passes are channel specific. To get episodes on all
available channels, use a Wishlist.

When you are viewing the list of upcoming episodes choose one that's on the
channel you want and use that one to set up a season pass.

Or set up a season pass for every channel. I currently have three season
passes set up for 'King of Queens' and at one time I had 5 set up for 'Cops'

Yes, even for DirecTiVos. If you want to get a show on more than one
channel, you need to go with a WishList - a Season Pass won't cut it.

Yes it is.

Or are you thinking of "Wishlists"?
