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.

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.

Not only does this WishList find a specific program—it finds the specific version! (You could also find this movie by making a Keyword
