Apprentice on CNBC - accurate guide data?
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: cwoody222

Due to Kingdom Hospital and Wonderfalls moving to 9pm Thursdays I'm going to have to record Apprentice on CNBC.

How accurate is CNBC in their guide data? Can I trust that I'll get the episode? I think I'm recording it Sat. AM at like 1am or something.

How are they with accurate start / end times?

I'll probably end up watching it live (something I haven't done in YEARS) on Thursday but I want to be prepared.

I've been recording TA off CNBC since it started and it hasn't been a problem. All shows were what they were supposed to be. As to start and end times, one time, ummmm bout 6 weeks ago, the end got cut off. I'm using Endpad but Tivo had to change the channel for a different show. Other than that, CNBC has ben perfect.

One thing I did notice picking it up off of CNBC is that they don't show previews for the next episode, at least not on the couple I've caught there. Last week was an example. I know it didn't cut off early, because I saw the exit interview with the fired person (no spoiler) in the cab and then it went to the beginning of the next show.

If I'm wrong, please correct me, but that's twice I've not gotten the previews.

CNBC guide data has been fine, and I am using my TAFWL without problem. They are showing this show a bunch of times per week on both NBC and CNBC.

It is true that they don't show previews for the next episode usually and now that the episodes are under one hour, they record okay (some of the oversize ones had a problem).
