Hi, I am sorry that you are frustrated with the Hopper and the Prime Time Any Time feature. You do have the ability to set which channels and days you want the Prime Time to record on your individual set-up. You need to do this from the Prime Time Any Time screen. Press Menu, Settings, DVR Defaults, PTAT and then PTAT Set-up and set the options as you want them. Here is a link to a very helpful page for Hopper owners http://www.mydish.com/support/your-hopper?WT.svl=gsearch_results If you have any additional questions or concerns, please email me directly. Thank you!
