It might require two "channel" rules, but it would work.  Channel 1
recordings get assigned to Season 1 recordings group and Channel 2
recordings get assigned to Season 2 recordings group.

It wouldn't work however, if they were being rerun on the same channel.  Not
without a little fenangling at least.
