TV shows on DVD.

I'm not sure if a thread like this has been started before - I know there was a DVD one - but I'm narrowing it.

TV shows on DVD. Like the concept? Hate it?

What TV shows do you have/want?

---

I'll start.

I LOVE this concept. When they started releasing the Little House on the Prairie seasons I was beyond excited, and I now own all seasons

I also own:

Golden Girls (right now only 1-3)
Xena Season2
Wings Seasons 1 and 2

I'm considering getting Friends and I really really want X-Files, Ab Fab and Sex and the City.

I want:

Wings
American Gothic
Twin Peaks (BOTH seasons AND the pilot...sheesh, just put it out as a total set already!!

)
The Office (US version...season 1)

I have:

The Office (UK version...both seasons and the special)
Keen Eddie (entire season)
Blackadder (all seasons plus the specials)
The Monkees (both seasons)

That's all I can think of at the moment.

You have got to get Wings..I'm loving it - it's a real trip down memory lane.

And I didn't realize that some of my favorite episodes are from the early days! Namely the one with Trivial Pursuit

I LOVE The Office!!

That is the one that I want to get. I also have other SNL specials on dvd (Had to have the Will Ferrel "cow bell" skit).

I love TV shows on DVD. That's the major problem with TV shows on TV: commercials. So DVDs remove that problem right off the bat.

I have "I Love Lucy" Seasons 1 through 6 on DVD, plus I have "The Partridge Family," "SCTV," "Your Show of Shows," "This Is Your Life" & "Sanford & Son."

Man, do we have different taste in TV shows. I love ya David, but the above shows, IMO, suck!

The only show I've bought is the first 3 seasons of Seinfeld. BUT, I just don't watch them as much as I thought I would, so I've not bought any more. I've seen them all soooooooooooooooooo many times before I got the DVDs.
Right now, I have, from the library, Golden Girls, 3rd Rock, and......Starsky and Hutch!(ducks!)
I'd like to own:
Married, with Children
MASH
Dick Van Dyke Show(imo, the best sitcom of all time).

So far I just have Gilmore Girls seasons 1 - 3. I want seasons 4 and 5 but haven't caught them on sale yet. I want to get Point Pleasant because they only aired half of the episodes they shot. It was a series that was canceled about a year and a half ago. It just never took off.

I love TV on DVD! I have Seasons 1,3,4, and 5 of the X-Files and Season 1 of Ab Fab. I'm totally jealous that you have GG and Wings. I would love to have Mad About You, Designing Women, and Ellen on DVD.

Gah! Well I'm jealous of your X-Files

I just thought of a couple of shows I'd like to see on DVD -

The Naked Truth (I LOVE Tea Leoni)
and Flying Blind (early Tea Leoni show, I don't even know if it made it a whole season!)

My local library has X-Files on DVD. But, it's really popular, and they usually have "holds" placed on them, before they even get returned.

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.

I used to do that. But one time I had 20 videos checked out at once. I chucked them all into my closet and forgot about them for 2 weeks. The $50 late fine pissed me off, so now I go to Blockbuster.

Ha! They've warned me once, and I offered to pay the day's fine, but they told me to forget about it.
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!
