Did my part to support TV on DVD today :) (1 Viewer)

[Kyle McKnight]

3 copies of Planet Of The Apes TV series...
3 copies of Fawlty Towers complete collection
2 copies of Stargate SG-1 complete Season 1
2 copies of Kindred: The Embraced
2 copies of The Veil
2 copies of V-The Miniseries
1 copy of The Sopranos 2nd season
1 copy of Twin Peaks
Also placed my online order for Hammer House Of Horror from DeepDiscountDVD. They have it for about 1/2 of what retail wants.
I hope the Twin Peaks is good, I've never seen an ep before or heard what it's about, but the way some of you guys talk about it...1 copy of all the above goes in my collection, the rest were last minute Xmas gifts. I've also never seen an ep of POTA, Fawlty Towers, The Veil, or V before...but I have read up on them and they do intrest me.
Also, found a copy of Jingle All The Way hidden behid some other movies. Seemed to be the last one they had. When I stumbled across it, after hearing about the recall here, made me think "Hope no one at the HTF hid this here"
Next up on my TV-DVD list are some more Twilight Zone discs, probably Battle of the Planets and Space 1999, will pick up Buffy when released, and ST:TNG. I just want complete collections, preferably in Season boxed sets. That's one reason I didn't pick up Friends. Anyone wanna reccomend some others for me to take a look at?

 

[David Lambert]

Kyle, I commend you highly! You certainly did more than your fair share!!
Enjoy!
As for recommending others, I'm assuming you already have obvious choices like The Simpsons, The Prisoner, X-Files, and Sex and the City...don't you?

 

[Kyle McKnight]

X-Files seasons 1-4 I have, Sex & The City I have S1 but hadn't kept on S2, is it out yet? I'm not sure what The Prisoner is...but I shall look it up. The Simpsons I'm expecting as a Xmas gift. I'm not too keen on the animation for that season, but I do love the show. Bring on Futurama though, I missed tons of the first season episodes.

I was also suprised to see Uprising out on DVD already. Will most likely pick that up in Jan.

If anyone reads this as their last thread today...Have a Merry & Safe Christmas.

I'm not sure what The Prisoner is...but I shall look it up.

[rant]It's the most superb 1-season (17 episodes) TV show ever made!!
Literally a mind-F|_|¢K!! [/rant]

What "Jingle All The Way" recall? I must have missed the previous post.

 

[David Lambert]

Do a search. It was recalled because someone claims that Fox stole the script from him or something. Fox is sure they'll win upon appeal, but they're "recalling it for now just in case".

Another disc to get to support TV shows on DVD is the B5 test disc.

Don't forget the Muppet Show(so far 10 DVD's/3 shows on each) from Time Life and Monty Python entire episodes.
I just recieved the Monty Python set this afternoon, and NEVER having seen one episode, I shall enjoy this Imenselly Plus I got my second Muppet Show DVD in the mail from Time Life.

 

[Kevin Leonard]

2 copies of Kindred: The Embraced

I thought this was out-of-print. I've been looking all over for it; is there a store that still has copies available?
EDIT: Don't forget to pick up Get A Life, Vols. 3/4 on January 8th!

It [rant]is[/rant] out-of-print. However, I picked up a copy for myself around Halloween and last week as a Christmas gift for my wife's best friend.
Best Buy. $17.99 each. (Note: They only seem to have one at a time; the 2nd copy was likely a re-stock for the first copy I bought.)

I can't believe I forgot to recommend these two! I don't have MP yet...I hope to pick it up at Costco before they run out of the $99.99 mega-set deals...but Christmas had to come first.

The list is cut-and-paste from the TVShowsOnDVD web site; it only represents the titles Gord has listed so far. There are others he hasn't gotten into his database yet, like Mists of Avalon, Mr. Murder, & Magic Legend of the Leprechauns miniseries and shows like Æon Flux, H.R. Pufnstuf, Teltubbies, & Speed Racer (he's got a full-time day job, so he can be forgiven! ).
The list *looks* a tad shorter than I expected...but it represents 130 discs! Not too shabby...that's over 10% of my collection...even if you don't count the titles Gord hasn't input yet!!
Soon I'll have to pick up the latest box sets for Sopranos and X-Files, since they weren't under the tree. :p)
