You need Tivo because you can set it to record Falling Skies right now by adding that specific programme into your wish list! Set record and forget months ahead of a programe, very nice!

Also good to see this is on FX (not Sky Atlantic so competition for good series from the USA is still in place) and just the sort of programme I like.

That is a nice feature indeed , I use Sky's never miss , you set what future show you want and they email you a remote record link the week before it's not let me down yet.

Nowhere near as good as Wishlists though as you can only add what it has in it's database; you can add anything to Whishlists and Tivo will pick it up when it airs in the UK on a VM channel

You say most, with whishlists, you can add anything.

With sky, you have to check it with Tivo, you don't, it automatically records them for you, even months or years after you add it.

For people who don't know the details, I was just pointing out that the Sky method isn't as good as Tivo's whishliste functionality, i.e., it's not the equivalent of it.

I don't see your point; of course if it airs on a VM channel; if you have a VM box, you can't get channels that air on Sky but don't air on VM :confused:

I love the way you you use the phrase "so highly unlikely of missing much"

So close to "You'll never miss anything", which is what applies to Tivo whishlists.

:D
