The only reason that you created a series link that recorded the Thursday showing was that the Monday showing had already taken place and TiVo (obviously) couldn't record the Monday one. Check My Planned Progammes.
Now that you have asked I can only say that I'm not sure at all about what has happened!

The show in question is Arrow and in My Shows I have 2 episodes from Thu 14/3 and 2 episodes from Thu 21/3 which seems to back up what I had said had happened.

However looking in Planned Programs it shows that it is set up to record the 1 showing that is on tonight and Thursday's showing is set up as a manual recording. I can't remember exactly what I did when I set the program up initially but I do remember trying to set up a manual showing at one stage but I thought I had canceled that.

Looking back at recording hiccups it states that last Monday's 2 showings weren't recorded because the series link had been canceled. It also said that the manual recording of episode 'Lone Gunman' on the Thursday wasn't recorded because it wasn't new. However in My Shows it shows that it has recorded both episodes including 'Lone Gunman' from Thursday.

My Monday recordings no longer clash with Arrow so I'll leave it as it is and see what gets recorded this week.

Sorry for the confusion but I do remember being confused like Londonbornpaddy in trying to get it to record a series on the day I wanted it to.
