X Factor is pre-empted, then moved
So the X Factor is being moved around because of baseball. Wednesday's show was shown on Thursday. They say ...well, here is what they say
The “Judges’ House #1” episode of THE X FACTOR previously scheduled for Wednesday will now air THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13 from 8:00-10:00pm.
The “Judges’ House #2” episode of THE X FACTOR previously scheduled for Thursday will now air on SUNDAY, OCTOBER 16 from 8:00-10:00pm (IF NO BASEBALL).
(NOTE (1): Sunday’s previously announced “if no baseball” animated lineup will be preempted for THE X FACTOR.)
(NOTE (2): If THE X FACTOR on Sunday, October 16 ends up being preempted for an ALCS Game #7, it will be rescheduled and an additional announcement will be sent out at that time.)
My question, since I have it set up as a series, will it get recorded no matter when it shows up or do I need to monitor it.

Yeah, looking at the Guide for the Dallas Fox affiliate, it does not show X Factor scheduled. Time to setup a manual recording!

It recorded, but it was supposed to record. It comes on twice a week. Wednesday night and Thursday night. The one that recorded Wed. was a repeat and the one that was supposed to record on Wed. was pushed to Thursday night. I thought they would just continue to push to the next regular spot, but they announced that the next episode would be Sunday night,. It does not show up on the guide for Sunday. I'm not sure if the Uverse programming is looking for the name to be on the guide.

The Sunday night broadcast of X Factor depends on whether or not the baseball game is played on that night. The baseball game is shown in the Guide for that time period.

So if there is no game and the X-factor is broadcast, will my DVR know to record it or do I need to set it to record the baseball game???

Your series recording will pick up the episode, IF the Guide is updated with the correct programming information. It will not be until late Saturday night when it is known whether or not the baseball game will be played on Sunday, thus, there is a chance that the Guide may not be updated in time.
If the Texas Rangers win the game on Saturday night, there will be no baseball game Sunday night, and X Factor will be broadcast. If the Detroit Tigers win the game on Saturday night, there will be another baseball game played on Sunday night, and X Factor will be broadcast at another time. So your best bet is to root for the Rangers to win Saturday night. 🙂

Uh oh....sounds like you're a baseball fan. It has always made me crazy....boring.
I could forgive a footballl game. I'm setting it to tape Sunday night at 8 pm for 2 hours.
Thanks for all of your work on this

Don't mess with old people. The older we get, the less "Life in Prison" is a deterrent.

Simon can thank the AL CHAMPION TEXAS RANGERS for allowing his program to be broadcast tonight.

Today is Sunday and the guide has not been updated. We may be on our own as far as taping it is concerned.
