Is there any possibility that you scheduled something else but got "My 
600 lb life?" In the past I have found programs I didn't plan to 
schedule that the station ran in place of what I had scheduled. It still 
showed up as the program I had selected, but was something else. My best 
guess is that the station swapped out the program between the time I 
last ran the Schedules Direct update and the time of the program. As far 
as Myth knew, I was recording the program I wanted on the station and 
time slot I had selected. Had I run mythfilldatabase after the station 
made the change it probably would not have recorded, at least I'm 
guessing that's the case.
