View Full Version : Odyssey 5 (SciFi) did not record due to bad guide data

I missed last night's airing of Odyssey 5 on SciFi. The To Do List history says it did not record, because the entry disappeared from the programming schedule. However, SciFi Channel's website clearly lists for last night (11/2) at 8 pm. Also, there are no repeat airings for any episodes of this show.

Currently, my TiVo says there are no upcoming episodes, yet SciFi's site says there is an episode scheduled for Friday 11/9.

Check your recordings carefully. I may need to create a manual recording to work around the completely wrong guide data.

I saw my tivo not recording at 8pm last night and i checked and there was a repeat of SG1 on. Not sure why they changed it but they did

FWIW, my guide info says there was no O5 last night, and it's not scheduled for next Friday, or any other day, either, so regardless of what their website says, Sci-Fi must've yanked it. Not the first time they've done it.

You might consider Netflixing it, now that the entire series is out on DVD.

Thanks for the correction. Silly me for assuming that SciFi's website is the ultimate authority on their schedule.

I have Netflix, so I'll look into that.

Interesting that old reruns of SG-1 are apparently better ratings grabbers than O5.

They replaced it with Flash Gordon for next week.

I gave up on SciFi and bought the DVD. Series looks good so far.
