I  think the issue was something else, but I have no idea what's causing this or
if it's supposed to be like this.. Check this out:

Fame factory                         3 3  17 19:00-20:30  1 1 1  C 0 1   5

As  you  can see, Roomservice is conflicting.... But, it shouldn't need to. If I
bump the priority for Roomservice I get this:

Fame factory                         3 3  17 19:00-20:30  1 2 2  C 0 2   5
Family guy                           6 6  17 19:30-20:00  1 1 1  T 0 1  -1
Roomservice - "Avsnitt 3 / 10"       5 5  17 20:00-21:00  1 1 1  W 0 1   8
Top model 2 - "Avsnitt 5 / 9"        3 3  17 20:30-21:30  1 2 2  C 0 2   5
Vänner                               5 5  17 21:00-21:30  1 1 1  W 0 1   5
Första hjälpen                       3 3  17 23:45-00:15  1 1 1  C 0 1   0

Is  this the same thing you mentioned in another thread, about the scheduler not
beeing  smart  enough? Anyway, i think _this_ was the reason i had the problems,
not the post-roll since you can't reproduce it.
