I like to record a bunch of things off MLB Network and watch them later, and sometimes the canned material is shown several times throughout the night or weekend, but is initially used as filler following live broadcasts. Alas, even if I set WMC to record both new and rerun episodes of a series, if WMC thinks it's already recorded a particular episode, it won't record it a second time. Is there any way to override this? I've looked around and not found it on my own, and instead of capturing the Cardinals beating the Red Sox in seven in 1967, I have a nice recording of the Saguaros playing baseball in the Arizona Fall League, and a perfectly good rebroadcast of the desired show took place this morning and was skipped, since there was already a copy WMC made earlier in the weekend.

I'd love an ALL OF THEM, DARN IT! setting if I can find it. Thanks.

Switch from DVR mode to VCR mode. Instead of selecting a program to record from the EPG, schedule manual recordings for a certain channel at a certain time. It's tedious, but it's the only way that I know.
