Filter tokens can be used to reduce the amount information that is presented to the user in an electronic program guide display. This can help to reduce information overload and can facilitate presenting indicia of programs in which one or more of the users are likely to be interested. Filter tokens can also be used to provide users with a very robust tool to define user preferences of attributes associated with programs that are of interest to the user.
