I think everyone's concerns could be addressed by showing slightly different options for the case where a show is currently airing, AND there's an existing recording for that show that is not in-progress (i.e. Martin's scenario where he stops the recording during the intermission of a hockey game and then wants to come back and either just watch live or start another recording when the next period starts):
"Close"
"Play"
"Record"
"Watch"
"Find All"
So "Play" would play the existing recording, "Record" would start a new recording of the same show (via the usual dialog), "Watch" would just play the channel live. I don't really think a Delete option is needed in this case. Additionally, the record button on the remote (or ctrl-k) would start a new Quick Recording as normal.
Also it might be more clear if shows with completed recordings in the past showed a slightly different color. I guess it still ought to be red... maybe a bit darker? orange-ish? a bit towards purple? I dunno...
