Laverne and Shirley (They sure are taking their time releasing this series)
All in the Family
Three's Company
Everybody Loves Raymond
Dead Like Me (Curse them for cancelling that show)

The George Lopez Show
Recess (animated)
Jimmy Neutron (animated)

 

[Casey Trowbridg]

This is easy for me.

If I've purchased a season set of a TV show I plan to complete the series on DVD.

 

[StacyV]

Noah lasted two seasons. That's one I'd buy all seasons of too. Of titles I've started, I plan on owning every season of these shows, assuming they'll continue to be released:

24
American Dreams
Brady Bunch
Degrassi Junior High
Degrassi: The Next Generation
Flintstones
Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
Good Times
Homicide: Life on the Street
I Love Lucy
Joan of Arcadia
Saved by the Bell: The New Class
Soap
Sopranos, The
Three's Company
What's Happening!!

 

[Jon_Gu]

I agree with Casey, once I start buying season sets, I'm in it for the whole run.

Already Completed Sets:

The Lone Gunmen
Star Trek: TOS


Sets with only one more season to go:

Wonder Woman (Announced for June 7th, 2005)
Gilligan's Island (Announced for July 26th, 2005)
Crime Story (Announced for Sept 20th, 2005)
Munsters (Supposedly Halloween)
Starsky & Hutch

Sets with only two more seasons to go:

Knight Rider (Season 3 in December, 2005)


Current production shows & releases to this point:

Alias
Arrested Development
CSI
CSI:Miami
Las Vegas
Monk
Reno 911!

And a plethora of other shows that have three or more releases to go...too many to mention!

Although I would be remiss if I didn't include M*A*S*H with 8 seasons released, season 9 announced for December, 2005 and only 2 more seasons left for hopefully a 2006 release!

 

[LarryDavenport]

There are too many to mention, but I am close to completing a couple series:

Friends (just need Season 10 and Joey)
Homicide (Season 7 and the movie)
Persuders (box 2)
Due South (season 4)
Angel (season 3&4)
Buffy (seasons 5-7)
Monty Python (last two boxes)
Avengers (I have all the Emma Peel, I'd like to get all the Lind Thornton & New Avengers)
SCTV (all episoded before and after the 3 sets available)
Kids in the Hall (S3 and beyond)

I will buy all the Pete&Pete, Mary Tyler Moore, Bob Newhart, and Hogan's Heroes, but so far only season 1 are in print.

I have a lot of series where all the shows were contained in a single volume, like Ben Stiller, Late Line, Hitchhiker's Guide, and Lone Gunmen. And I have all of The Prisoner, Tenacious D and Mr. Show (I wish there were more).

Not to piss anyone off, but I am finding it easy to pick up used copies of season sets for about 65% off after they've been in print for a month or so. I will buy season 10 of Friends the day it comes out, but I would rather spend $40 than $90 on Homicide or the Persuaders. I'll also probably pick up the rest of Combat used.

 

[Wendy_L]

I'm not big into watching TV shows over and over again but I will buy the following because they are my all time favorite shows:

Friends (need 3, 4 & 6-10)
Buffy the Vampire Slayer (need 1-4)

And I'm thinking about "Bewitched" & "Tabitha".

I rent a lot of TV shows from an online DVD rental service, but those are shows I have never seen before and I'm watching them for the first time.



What do you mean by this? I saw someone complain about QL in another thread. I loved this show too.

[Casey Trowbridg]

I just got season 3 of CSI for $20 today. So I'm not one of those you'd be pissing off with that remark, I have 0 problem saving a buck or 2 or 10 here and there.

 

[Tom_mkfty]

The old western, Branded.
Also, the Fugitive.

 

[Tom_mkfty]

How do you get the time to watch them all?

How long does it take you to get through a set?
There is a big difference in watching all Flintstones and Stargate SG1 episodes.

Flintstone is casual and relaxing, but Stargate SG1 demands a lot attention.

 

[Wendy_L]

Good question, Tom. I've wondered that myself. And I want to come over and hang out with a few you because I've never met a single person who loves TV as much as me.

Yesterday I decided I might buy the entire series of Gilmore Girls on DVD because I've been catching a rerun here and there and I'm enjoying it as much the 2nd time around as the first.

 

[Casey Trowbridg]

How do I get through everything? No idea although in actuality I am behind on my TV on DVD watching, but that's why I'm in the HTF TV on DVD chalenge for 2005.

The thing is though that TV on DVD makes good background noise, so I can watch a few episodes of something while doing other work, or cleaning up around the apartment and I always try to watch something as I'm falling to sleep.

I also don't watch a lot of regular over-the-air Television, if I watch something its more than likely a sporting event...the only reason I have digital cable is for Pay Per View, and the NFL Network and the ESPN family of channels.

But for those curious to see my list anyway...
I will complete all of the following, eventually...I hope
