I burned the show to DVD, and can send you a copy if you don't need it real soon.

I highly recommend that people get a TV tuner card for their PC and run Sage TV, which works (IMHO) better than TIVO. I can schedule recordings quickly and easily - search by title, person, topic, etc. I can also define a set of favorites and appropriate shows are recorded automagically. Since everything is recorded to mpeg files, I can edit the files, including deleting commercials, and burn the results to DVDs. I can also watch the shows from my laptop if I prefer. I have a bunch of DVD-RW, which I can use just like temp VCR tapes. I record movies and shows my wife wants to see, and then overwrite them with more movies.

For example, a couple of years ago we were going to visit the Grand Canyon and surrounding areas. I added favorites for Grand Canyon, Zion National Park, etc. and the program found and recorded a bunch of shows from the travel channel and others that we could use to research the places we wanted to see.

The program also has a feature that I don't use, but seems to be similar to TIVO - you can ask it to record additional shows based on what you specifically request.

Of course, you need a huge hard drive, but those are getting cheaper and cheaper.
