TV shows on DVD.

[Miss Vicky]

I love it that they're releasing television shows on DVD. I just wish they'd do it with more of them.

I have:

Black Adder - The Complete Collector's Edition
Mr. Bean - The Whole Bean
Mr. Bean - The Animated Series
The Thin Blue Line - the complete series
Ren and Stimpy - Seasons 1-5
Married With Children Seasons 1-4
Queer As Folk (American Version) - All 5 seasons
Queer As Folk (British Version) - both seasons
House, M.D. - Season One (and have pre-ordered season 2)
Grey's Anatomy - Season One (and have pre-ordered season 2)
Night Court - Season One
Night Court - Television favorites collection
Wild Boys - Season One

I would like to get the rest of the Married With Children collection, the Roseanne series and A Bit of Fry and Laurie. Also I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they put out the remaining seasons of Night Court; sales of the first season were lower than anticipated so we may never get the rest.

I'm also keeping my fingers crossed that they'll release all of Daria on DVD (so far only some specials have been released) and also my biggest guilty pleasure: Nash Bridges.

[catinthedark]

i love that they're releasing all the tv shows on dvd!

i have watched the entire West Wing series (i had never seen seasons 1 and 2). i'm also just about through the entire Six Feet Under series.

what i'd love to see:

- Twice in a Lifetime (i'm a total romantic sap - i LOVED this show)

- LA Law - it's been SO long since i saw it

- eventually... ER (i can watch ER over and over again - every episode)

- Roseanne (again, a show i can watch over and over and over. i loved it until the final season or two)

and i know i will eventually watch the Sopranos, 24, and Lost.

Wow! What a collection!



All the ones I've highlighted in bold red I also started collecting because I am a HUGE Lucille Ball fanatic (I love my redhead gals Lucy and Carol Burnette!) and I MUST have them all! I saw Tim Conway and Harvey Korman perform skits live in Atlanta at the Fox Theatre a couple of years ago (lucky for me I got close seats the night of the show!) and it was the funniest thing I have EVER seen live! I wanted to see Vicki Lawrence in her live act, but it was never in my area so that I could attend.



I quickly bought my guilty pleasure as soon as they hit the shelves eat time they were released - SEX IN THE CITY! I regret getting them so fast, as they now have a special edition of them all in a nice package.



I recently started collecting Designing Women and Golden Girls episodes, mainly because I've been to the sets of each show (in Atlanta and Florida) and I just love the actresses and I continue to follow them in all their roles.


I have always watched Desperate Housewives and Charmed, as well as another little known series called Sisters. I use the internet P2P and Torrent files to get copies of these shows instead of the box sets of the ones that are still on (although sadly, Charmed just ended its 8 season run) and Sisters hasn't been released yet on DVD and I have no other alternative.


Since I live in Savannah, I see Paula Deen all the time at her restaurant and around town. I've loved her and her cooking for years! She's remarkable and quite a character! I knew that before Cameron Crowe wrote that role for her in Elizabethtown...

If anyone ever wants any merchandise signed or purchased from the store she owns in her restaurant (she also owns Uncle Bubba's seafood restaurant), I certainly don't mind helping out. She knows me from all the years I've brought new customers in from the UK and everywhere else...she ever comes and sits a spell with us when she can to chat.

[macfanken]

I have...

"Arrested Development" Seasons 1 and 2... season 3 will be released in August.

"Absolutely Fabulous" I have all of the series... I think there are five of them?

"Strangers With Candy" Seasons 1-3

"League of Gentlemen" Series 1 and 2... still need to get Series 3.

[Gypsy-Rhiannon]

I have so far:

ER
Charmed
Bewitched
Friends

Would love Cagney and Lacey to be brought out on DVD.

And yeah, I get about 12-15 at a time. I'm usually in town every Tuesday, with about two hours to kill before I go to work, so I head for the library.
What I wish is that I had a new computer. Two of my friends have the program where you can copy ANY DVD. That's the first program I'm installing, IF, I can ever afford a new one!

Have you ever considered renting out a room? My Dad did well with that renting to a family friend for years.

There are ones that I want, but I'm too skint- new BBC Doctor Who Series 1 (shut. up.), Battlestar Galactica, The Sopranos/Six Feet Under, Sex and the City, The Adventures of Brisco County Jr., etc. I'm also waiting for an Angel box set like the Buffy Chosen Collection. They were limited edition, PRETTY, and I got all seven seasons for $130.

"arc" is the new buzzword in movie & TV reviewing--"dramative arc," "narrative arc," "character arc," etc. Who keeps raiding this lost arc?

Holy ****. I don't think I've seen anything on your list!

[estranged4life]

I just cant get into watching seasons of a TV show on DVD, tried it in the past and each time I ended up selling the DVD's (Which I recently did yet again).

My attention span is very short in regards to ANY broadcast...So give me music instead (And yes, I also cannot sit through music DVD's, More of an old-timer who prefers cd/tape over DVD).

That's because you're old and out of touch.

What, you never watched Northern Exposure? That's more in your timeline.

Hey, the truth hurts! Easy on Grandpa Dave!
He likes Sanford and Son!
And I can't help it, I HATE Lucy, even though ya'all seem to love it. Al Bundy was right, "they should've killed em all off, and made Fred the star, and called it 'Mertz's World'".

Anyone else get videos from the library? I just started a couple months ago. Money's so tight right now, I had to find some CHEAP entertainment.

When I first moved here a few weeks ago all I had was a portable DVD player (lent to me by my sister) and no money so I went to the library - what a great thing! I never knew they had such great and current videos there!!!

The only problem I noticed is that some of them are SO banged up = a couple wouldn't even play. People piss me off.

LOVED LOVED that show - a little less so when they changed it all around and they added George Wendt or something - but I still enjoyed it. I seriously think Tea Leoni is so under-rated. Of course I could just be biased because I've had the hots for her since the "Flying Blind" days.

Now that I think about it, I did see that one. I liked it quite a lot--although the two main characters were irritating with their yuppie childishness, the peripheral characters--the DJ, the Indian boy, the sheriff, the diner owner, the wandering moose--were all interesting & amusing.
