I have a similar issue with my "Premier episodes" rule.  What I do is this:

Edit the rule
Go to program information
Select "Show all episdoes matching this title" (not this rule)
Select an episode that does not match (they should appear as
white/non-recording color)
This should start you setting up a new rule which will match all episodes of
this show

Since the new rule was created after the custom search, it will match all
the episodes that the custom search doesn't.
