Can't Set A Series Recording for Chek News At 5:00

I brought up Chek News at 5:00 in the guide and then selected show times.  It shows each day's episode from Today, Monday, Tuesday, etc.  I toggled series recording by selecting the first entry in the day list (i.e. Today:Friday) and toggled through to the series selection.   It seems to maintain the series recording setting from here. 

Unfortunately, it still seems that something is wrong.

I looked at today's scheduled recording list and it does show "series" set.  But it only lists today's episode, it does not show Monday, Tuesday, etc. 
I then went to the guide, and it also shows today's recording with the series 3 circles, however when I move forward to Monday's show time in the guide, it does not show any recording being set, neither episode nor series. 

Definitely weird.   It looks like each episode is only part of it's own series and future episodes are their own independent series of one.
