but I usually still end up buying the DVD's...Hell, I know a few people who already are selling episodes of "Lost", "Six Feet Under" (The latest season), "CSI", etc.

Hell, I have several officially released Japanese anime series (English dub versions too) that are the complete series on DVD, Whereas the official US released versions are just finally being released or are still in the release process.

Wished I could think of what TV series I would like to have on DVD, but most have already been released.

ps-I just saw an ad for the second (I originally typed first season but that is already in stores with the lame yellow parka things) season of "Northern Exposure" on DVD.

Yep, I'll probably buy Lost on DVD. I need to go watch this past Wednesday's episode again.

Can't wait to see Sawyer's backstory!!!

Wow, I didn't think anyone other than me, remembered those shows! Both were favorites of mine.

Shalhoub was terrific in 'SRM' (as was Neil Patrick Harris)... that show deserved a much longer life.

Ooh..Herman's Head...

And Naked Truth - I LOVED That show...

It's a bit of a ripoff for the first season, because it's SO expensive for just two discs, but.

Oh!! Can I also bitch about the lack of Gilmore Girls on DVD? Season 2 is out December 7th, but there's no plans for 3 or 4. And I'm greedy. I wants me some Gilmore on DVD instead of being a loser and actually having them all taped on VHS.

I thought I was the only one who loved Herman's Head. And, wasn't the actress playing the bitchy blond the same one who played on Friends as Ross's FIRST wife? (he had so many )

so i'm curious about say, northern exposure. This is a good show, but i watched when it was on, then i watched it in repeats. Have you guys also seen it this same amount, but would actually watch it again? I mean, if you want to own it, that implies that you would watch it many, many more times. Is this true?

I saw someone selling season 3 of Gilmore Girls recently on their website.

I dont understand DVD prices being outrageous when there's no extra to justify a hiked price. I just bought the new limited edition "Directors Cut" 3 DVD disc version Hellboy last week for $24.99 which included a heavy resin bust of Hellboy whereas the regular "Directors Cut" 3 DVD disc version was $22.99...Now I can see paying extra for that (Considering BestBuy had it marked at $24.99 when it scanned for $42.99...They had to honor the price it was stickered on the box) when the 3 discs contain hours upon hours of bonues, Including a 2 hour 30 minute making of doctumentary.


I passed on the US release of the complete Witch Hunter Robin series (26 episodes) for the price of $132.99 for the official Japanese release (With English dub/Subtitles) for $25.99 since the extras weren't worth the exaggerated price-tag (Just a collectible pin).

Generally, the shows I buy on DVD are either shows I WILL watch again and again, or they're shows that I really like, the price is right, and the DVDs have extras I'm interested in. Shows I watch again and again- 24, Alias, Gilmore Girls, Twin Peaks. DVD. Other ones include stuff like- The Office, Arrested Development, etc.

Like, Alias- I've watched Seasons 1 & 2 at least four or five times each all the way through. Season 3 is new, and I've only watched it once. 24? I've watched at least three or four times each. Gilmore Girls... haaa. Let's not go there. I own those to watch them on repeat, because the bonus features SUCK.

There are other shows I'll just rent- in my queue at Netflix right now are Felicity, The Awful Truth, and Once and Again. All of which I'd like to see for the first time or again, but not enough to buy them.

ah. do you know why you do that? Especially, with the non comedy shows, like 24, Alias, Twin Peaks, etc. I'm just curious, I don't even watch any of those shows, but I'll watch Will and Grace, and other comedy shows in the past over and over - but they have to be really funny. And now, i've seen them enough where i don't watch them much anymore...cartoon comedies, i have a longer tolerance for...
But i don't understand the reason for watching Drama shows a whole bunch of times. Are there plot points you're trying to figure out?

The dramas are all such excellent quality. To me, it's akin to watching the same movie over and over again, which many people do, except with a TV show, you have such a mass of material. I like having so much of one thing. I have the habit of obsessing or immersing myself in things when I go on kicks, and TV shows on DVD are great for that. You pick up more, too.

I tend not to like comedies on DVD because I don't always appreciate jokes on repeat. I just don't like them. The only comedies I own are The Office and Arrested Development, and they're not sitcom-y. I always pick up even more on repeated viewings of those two.

My biggest DVD obsession, though, is GG. Which is neither a comedy or a drama. Which is why the Emmys continue to ignore it. I watch that show constantly because it's such a smart, quality, happy show. The jokes don't get old for me, the acting quality is superb, and I like to live in my own little Stars Hollow universe. Lately, Tivo's been helping me with that because it's syndicated now on ABC Family, for all the seasons not out yet on DVD.

God, I'm blabbing a lot about my TV show/DVD habit.

I'm also a repeat watcher...I can watch my favorite shows over and over and over again - and have.

I can identify any Golden Girl episode within seconds...and can talk along with some of them... - sad? yes. haha..
