Which is what I said in the first place (and you disputed ;-)
Currently it modifies the entry for that title so single
record says record this showing and no others. I'm sure we
agree that this is not the desired behavior.

Not exactly. There should be two entries in the record
table; record "The Daily Show" everytime it is on at 11PM
on Comedy Central, and another entry to record the show
on Comedy Central at 11PM on 5/20/2003.

Single record "wins" in conflict resolution so 5/20 would
be marked "R" and all other days would be marked "T".
