The Shield finale runs 2 or 3 minutes past the hour. If you have been watching the show, you know the the previews normally ran overtime. Since there are no previews, the show itself runs into that time. The extra time is not reflected in the schedule.

If you haven't been padding, you should probably catch a replay later this week and pad it.

Dam one day too late to get it on last nights recording.

Will have to set up a 2nd recording with the padding.

THANKS SO MUCH FOR THAT!!!!

And I thank you too as I have not been padding shows this year and I really hate it when I miss the end, especially a season finale.

I had mine padded for 3min and still missed a few seconds of the last scene, make it 5 min just to make sure.

I recorded the second consecutive airing padded for 5 minutes. and still missed the end (if the 10:00 showing ran 'till 11:03, then the 11:00 showing wouldn't have ended before 11:06.) So if you re-record later in the week and they're showing the episode twice in a row (I don't think that actually occurs, but just in case), you'll need extra padding!

I think there are two more. The next one is Friday night - conflicts with Monkn but that's what a second TiVo is for.

Yeah, I had a conflict for ther Friday show so I picked the Sunday showing. I pre-padded it 2 minutes and post-padded 15 minutes. That should catch it all!

Crap. We watched the first two eps this season and just left the rest for a marathon later this summer. Checked last night and sure enough, cut off at the end. Anyone wanna send out a tape (I'll pay) or even spoiler the ending?
