As you may know, TIVO scheduling is dependent upon the posted running time of a scheduled movie. It is very irritating when TCM schedules (for example) a 93 minute movie in a 90 minute timeslot. It's even more irritating when a 90 minute movie is scheduled in a 90 minute timeslot but is preceded by 2-3 minutes of filler material. Either way, the ending of the movie is missed. Certainly, it can't be too difficult to assign timeslots that are accurate, ie: schedule a 93 minute movie in a 105 minute slot and add your fillers. It doesn't happen often, but shouldn't happen at all.
