You will be able to be sure of this by the icon these shows
display. It's a little black circle with TiVo inside it. To more
easily keep these programs from cluttering the list, in
now-playing, follow the instructions at the bottom and turn on
grouping. All suggestions will then be listed in a folder named
'TiVo Suggestions'
Also, it might be what was happening to me. I picked up my S2
over ebay and it still had the previous owner's season passes and
such programmed in. Go through the setup menu's and delete all
the thumb stuff.
