Episode "Duration" isn't shown?

So I upgraded from a TiVo HD to a Roamio a couple months ago.



I ran into this last week but just remembered to ask about it...



I was adding an SP for "Survivor" and after I searched for the show, found it. While looking at the season premiere details after selecting it from Upcoming, it occurred to me that the season premiere may be more than the usual hour, but I couldn't tell from the info the Roamio showed if that was true or not.



Here's an example screenshot I found on the web for Modern Family. Notice that there's no episode duration shown. I can't find the episode durations anywhere when on this screen, including using the Info button. It says what time it starts, but there's no clue to when it ends...









Playing around, I noticed that it does show the duration of movies. It appears under the title next to the star rating...







I remember for a fact that it always showed the duration of series episodes on my TiVo HD. Example...







What I ended up doing on my Roamio was after I set the SP, I went to the To Do list, found the premiere there. The duration is shown for items in the To Do list.



Long story short, I guess,... am I missing something here?

Seems odd that I have to actually schedule a show (in order to get it on the To Do list) before I can find out how long it's going to be. I guess another alternative is to go to the Guide an d find an episode there but that's kinda cumbersome to do. Never had to do that on the old HD or my Series 2 before that.
