Find future showings from past guide entries?

Seems pretty lame that i cannot create a season pass *easily* for a show that just ended. Yet another little advantage for Replay.

"find future episodes" from the guide.. I shouldn't have to exit out and go to "pick programs to record" to setup a season pass or record a future showing..

TiVo
Pick programs to record
search by title
all programs
letter 1
letter 2
letter three
right arrow
right arrow
right arrow
right arrow
record
down arrow
select..

Confirm
Confirm

16 keystrokes to setup one simple season pass :down:

On Replay:
Channel Guide
Highlight show
Enter
Select (find all episodes)
Highlight showing
Record (just this episode)
Record again (all episodes)

6 keystrokes.. :up:

VERY good idea.

If I already know when the show airs, I find it much easier to just set-up a recording (or even a Season Pass) from the Live TV Guide.

I just watched a show that TiVo Suggests recorded. I decided I liked it and wanted to set up a season pass, but it doesn't air in the next couple of weeks so I can't. At all!

The only option appears to be to create a wishllist to search for the show title (which I have to enter with the remote). How many keystrokes is that!

I guess ReplayTV would have the same problem, there would be no future episodes to select.

It would be nice if you could create a Season Pass from a recorded show. It knows the channel and show name.
