What's the last TV DVD/Blu-ray you bought? (1 Viewer)

[Ron Lee Green]

How to Marry a Millionaire was the last DVD I purchased, but I've really cut down on my DVD spending a lot the past couple years, partly because all my primary favorite shows have been released, and partly because I have a lot of unwatched sets of my secondary favorites sitting on the shelves collecting dust. I just don't have enough time to watch them all.

^I feel your pain... but I continue to purchase anyway.

Ducktales - V1

You're not the only one! I have a good many all-in-ones that are gathering dust because I haven't seen them all.

Since it just came in the mail today: Ernie Kovacs' Take a Good Look, The Definitive Collection. I'm an EK fan but this crazy game show is my favorite thing he did.

Night Gallery, The Complete Series

 

[bmasters9]

All-in-one from Shout! of The Loner (1965-66 CBS Western starring the late, great Lloyd Bridges that ran for only 26 episodes in that season)

 

[The Obsolete Man]

You're not the only one! I have a good many all-in-ones that are gathering dust because I haven't seen them all.

I buy when cheap for when I want to watch them, or leave sets waiting around for series to be completed before digging in.

My All in the Family complete series set has been around for a while. It's even went through a move. And today, I'm watching it because I finally felt like going through AITF.

Newhart... I had the bulk of Newhart sitting for three years until season 8 was released.

Of course, not all sets have to wait around. That House on Blu set I picked up in July didn't even make it into August before I started watching. Quantum Leap on Blu wasn't out of the mailbox for two hours before it was in the player.

But, those "secondary" shows as you call them, well, sometimes they get to age and mellow a bit.

A nice, sealed copy of Thriller (complete series). Sort of a blind buy; have seen one or two episodes and know its reputation. Since I'm heading toward season 5 of Twilight Zone on Blu I'll need something to cycle into (when my wife and I aren't continuing the Dark Shadows watch - 735 and counting).

 

[Carabimero]

Flipper season one in Blu-ray.

Did I use the word "secondary"? I think that was Ron Lee Green who said that.

It was. I mashed up his quote and yours in my head.

Understandable!

 

[Detour (1945)]

I don't usually buy TV shows until they are complete, but the wife and I had just binged watched S1 and S2 on Netflix (Canada), then couldn't find S3, so the wife went out and bought it.

Mash seasons 1-4 package at Wal-Mart $24.99. Even as a 70s half hour show I've noticed missing scenes from the syndicated episodes. It's funny how seemingly minor bits and pieces of the episode make a difference in the overall story. It's worth mentioning that there's nothing quite like owning your own set. Usually the picture and sound is better and especially for older shows, you usually get the whole original episode. And in todays short attention span age you don't have to worry about a network or streaming service taking it off, you can watch it any time you choose to.

 

[Detour (1945)]

I'm with you, Morasp! If it's a show I am checking out for the first time, streaming works for me, especially if I don't feel I need to revisit it, whether I liked the series or not.

But for those favourites, I need to own a physical copy and be able to watch any episode whenever I want.

[Scott Merryfield]

I do not buy many TV shows on BD/DVD, but I did recently pick up Season 3 of The Paper Chase on DVD. I loved that show, and already own the first two seasons. I didn't think I'd ever see another season released.
