Dang it, I overslept. I usually poke in a blank DVD-R (extracting one with SNL) before 8am to record Sunday Morning. It always has good stuff, but the commercials are a bit ubiquitous.
I had some eight 100-disc spindles when I thought I was going to transfer all my VHS tapes to DVD, so now I just record Charlie Rose/Letterman music segment/Craig Ferguson week nights and SNL and Sunday Morning weekly. I end up not even watching 90%, but those discs, with coupon at Costco, only cost 20¢ each and I want to use them up somehow.
