lemme be more specific. when i was growing up, i went to a private high school and i didn't have a lot of time for TV. now that i'm all growed up (yes, growed up), i went back and revisited many TV series that i wanted to see but didn't have time for. that was one of the reasons i compiled a list of TV series i wanna watch. now when i mention "watch" i don't just mean an episode here and there or my fav. episodes, i mean a list of shows that i wanna watch EVERY SINGLE EPISODE EVER MADE =). thus, when DVD became more and more popular, it was perfect timing.
so while i'm still busy w/my life working, studying, etc. i started to catch up last year. not all of the following TV series was on during my HS days. here's the list of TV series that i have finished watching every single ep so far:
Summer/05-Twin Peaks. i only saw glimpses of the show. i still remember how popular it was in the magazines. soap opera moves to night-time =). i hated the ending of s2, though. didn't wrap anything up.
9/05-Babylon5 (including all telefilms). read great raves about it from online SF community. and it was true!
10/05-Buffy&Angle concurrently. read great raves about it from online SF community. and it was true!
11/05-Stargate SG1&SGA, space above&beyond
12/05-finished SG1&SGA. read great raves about it from online SF community. and it was true!
1/05-farscape&peacekeeper wars. read great raves about it from online SF community. and it was true!
2/05-alias. an action film every week, what more could one possibly want =).
3/05-just finished catching up alias over the past weekend.
here's the list of TV series still on my list to complete:
-Smallville. it's supposedly a cross between dawson's creek&superman.
-WOnderfalls. supposed to be witty/charming.
-Nip/Tuck. gross? but lots of sex&violence, yeah!
-XF (i've seen all of s5-9, but missed sporadic monster of the week eps in s2-4). seminal TV series of all time. it's my fav TV series EVER of all time. there hasn't been one to replace it yet. imho, it's the TV series that made current crop of series more film-like. compare TV before and after XF, and there's a HUGE difference.
-All 5 series of Star Trek. i've seen most of TOS, TNG, ENT but not DS9&VOY. got lots of catching up.
-Twilight Zone (Rod Sterling version).
-there's more, i'll update when i get home to check my list.
so, with that in mind, what TV have you seen in the past year (2005) and why? what TV shows are on your 2006 TV show list and why?
the filter i'm placing is that you must be interestd in wathing close to every single episode. you can skip an ep here and there if you've viewed the episode before, but try to stick with shows that you're willing to watch 90% of *ALL* episodes.

. if you're starting s3 of buffy you can start watching angel concurrently. in fact, some of the eps tie in together. check out buffverse.com's forum, thre's a list of how you can watch both concurrently in order.
