My DVR has good taste

I'm just getting used to having cable and DVR.  I was recently trying to record a bunch of shows.  Every once in a while, Oprah will have a show I want to see and I happen to like Dr. Oz because he seems like a nice guy.  Anyway, I tried to set up my DVR to record Oprah and it won't do it.  I'm not sure why it doesn't like Oprah, but it is clear that my DVR does not want me to watch her.  I've tried several times to try and tape it, but alas, it's a no go.  

So, I guess I'm left to either manually record it or stay at home every day from 3-4 and watch it.  I'm not that desperate, and I'm not that interested to hear what she has to say.  After all, I hear about her and her book club selections almost every day.  That's what I get for working at a bookstore.  It's funny to see people's reactions when they find out that a certain book is an Oprah Book Club selection.  Some find the book more interesting while others put the book back right away, obviously not wanting anything to do with it.  Mostly men put the book back.  I'm not sure why, but Oprah seems to be driving the men away from books like Pillars of the Earth and The Story of Edgar Sawtelle.  Can't say I don't blame them.
