Firstly I'd check the backend log to confirm there's no database errors  
(crashed tables).

Then you can check the scheduler's intentions:

mythbackend --printsched

https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Mythbackend#Interpreting_--printsched_Output

And correlate it to the database

using either SQL

SELECT * FROM oldrecorded WHERE title LIKE "%Mayberry%";
SELECT * FROM recorded WHERE title LIKE "%Mayberry%";

or interactively via Adminer  http://www.adminer.org

https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Oldrecorded_table
https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Recorded_table

That might explain what's going on.

A Myth version might be useful too.
