Hi,
I have had this tivo for more then a year. Yesterday at 1:00AM on TLC my tivo, without being scheduled, recorded "Now See This!". I have tivo suggestions DISABLED and I have never heard of this program before in my life. This is my personal tivo and no one else in my household scheduled this on my tivo (no one in my house knows how to work my a/v system). Also, normally when you record something, tivo puts it as thumbs up. This has no thumbs at all. Is this a promotional thing from tivo?

Thanks!
Edited for spelling mistake.

Often TiVo records ads late at night to populate the Showcases section with. You might check Showcases to see if the infomercial or whatever it is exists there.

your TiVo has been doing this since you first got it. It is promotional stuff from TiVo

Isn't "Now see this!" the TV Guide spots?

My tivo has never done this before. This was some tlc show that was one hour. The show appeared in my Now Playing list. It was nowhere to be found in the showcase.

If someone in your household manually recorded the show and then pressed thumbs down, the show would have no thumbs. Both the record and thumbs down buttons are red. Maybe someone in your household is smarter than you think.

Is the recording a complete hour or a partial? Is it recorded at best quality or your normal recording quality? Was the previous show that your DVR recorded on TLC or not? I would try to envision a scenario in which a person recorded the show.
