Search by Keyword
You can use the keyword search to find programs that don’t fit into the Title
or Person search criteria. For example, if you are looking for a show about
cats, use the keypad to spell out “cats.”
In some cases, simple words can give you a lot of errant results, so try to
pick specific keywords to get the best results. You can enter a phrase (for
example “Wild Cats”), but it must be an exact match to the program guide
information to appear in the search results. Usually, it is better to use
single words.
The search feature looks through show titles and descriptions for the
keyword. The more specific you can be with your keyword, the better your
search results will be. If you enter a word that is also part of a larger
word, you may get unintended results. For example, if you enter “cats”
you may get results that include “Catskills Mountains” as well as “Cats in
Washington.”
