I Know What I Like 
If you know what you like, WishList searches are great! They allow you to find and 
automatically record shows that match your interests, tastes, passions, and whims. You 
can search for future programs with your favorite actor or director by creating an Actor or 
Director WishList. You can also create a Category Only WishList to find programs 
tailored to particular categories. The Keyword WishList and the Title WishList allow you 
to search for specific words or phrases in program descriptions and titles.
Try a WishList!
For example, you could create a Category Only WishList for the category “Movies” and 
subcategory “Action/Adventure.” You could then use it occasionally to look at a list of all 
action/adventure movies airing in the next two weeks. The list would be constantly 
updated by program guide data.
You could search for something more specific by creating an Actor WishList for Elizabeth 
Myer, and then include the category “Movies,” and subcategory “Romance.” This 
WishList would only find romance movies with Elizabeth Myer.
Using a Keyword WishList, you can look for something very specific. For example, the 
Keyword WishList “LIGHTNING” with category “Football” would find Lightning 
football (but not baseball) games for you.
Here’s another example: You could make a Keyword WishList to find a 1986 remake of ta 
movie called The Fright, starring Chris Fields. The keyword entry would look like this: 
“CHRIS FIELDS” FRIGHT. Not only does this WishList find a specific program—it 
finds the specific version! (You could also find this movie by making a Keyword
