Tag a program for future viewing

You can set up your viewing schedule ahead of time, so that you will be automatically notified of the shows you want to see. This is called "tagging". On the Guide, tagged programs have a checkmark to the right of the program name. You can tag up to 25 programs.

When a program has been tagged for future viewing, the notification banner displays 3 minutes before the program starts. Press OK to tune to the channel.

You can still purchase future PPV programs after 25, but you will not receive a tag notice.
