With the 360, I can't schedule the recording or series link until its showing in the guide and hope the watchlist reminds me that it's coming up which is surely pot look if you're using the 360 enough to realise its coming on.

So you have full control over your series links and can change options from one page. As it stands, I don't have a clue since moving to the 360 which shows I've series linked unless I'm going to search every show to see if it is or not, which is annoying when you had a lot of series links from the V6.
I know it’s not the same - watchlist is for the on demand library, and although you might want to set a link for a programme that isn’t scheduled to be on for months ahead, the chances are there is an existing series on the watchlist which you can add and the new series in nine months’ time will appear automatically.

Similarly, if you are watching a programme through series link on a recording, as long as you don’t actually cancel the series link, that programme will automatically appear as well with the next series. And, what is more, you will see those recordings appear on your Home Screen to alert you (under ‘recordings’).

You are used to doing things in a certain way, but I am afraid we all have to adapt with new technology. You can still find what you want when it’s on and you can keep your series links open for every new series that come on. There is a workaround available, but I can see that you just want to carry on doing things the way you have become used to. Fair enough.
