I know what you mean, but as far as I'm aware a program can be syndicated to multiple networks and over separate channels, and I figured US TiVo would compensate for that.

I agree, the wishlist feature is great (I have mine on Summer Glau watch among other things), but it often picks up other shows with similar keywords which aren't what you want. I figure if the TiVo knows the specific show it can record only that across channels. It's more of a nitpick than a big deal, but the aim of my game here is suggesting any and all potential improvements in the hope the better ones will be implemented in a future firmware update.

That's because your TV is overscanning - less than some sets, but definitely by a couple of percent which is enough to hide the graphical trash. Compare the size of the red/black/red border edge of the headline ticker on my TV with the smaller size of it on yours to see what I mean:
It's most noticeable on the increased distance between the edge of the screen and the BBC logo on my TV. Even a tiny bit of overscan is enough to hide that one vertical line of non-relevant pixels. Personally I don't care about that one because like the red button service I never use subtitles, but it's clearly a bug.
