That's a link you click to say, "Don't ever record this show."  It's 
useful for "teaching" Myth to ignore episodes of a series you've already 
seen.  I use it to teach Myth which movies I've seen--even if I saw them 
at the movie theater or a friend's house--so I don't record them in the 
future (Myth's memory is /much/ better than mine).

The link has nothing to do with what /will/ happen.  What will happen 
comes before the parens--meaning, for this show, nothing will happen.  
Other things you'll see:

MythTV Status: This showing is being recorded. (Never Record)
MythTV Status: This showing will be recorded. (Never Record)
MythTV Status: Another program with a higher recording priority will be 
recorded. (Never Record)
MythTV Status: This recording schedule is inactive. (Never Record)
MythTV Status: This showing was recorded. (Forget Old; Never Record)
MythTV Status: This show was marked to never be recorded. (Forget Old)
