Some tv shows have been on for a long time many years in fact. Have you ever watched an entire series without missing an episode? I have three that I have seen every episode and I did that by renting them through netflix and buying them from ebay. I bought the entire series of ER off ebay to watch took along time!
The shows I have seen every episode of are ER, Friends and House. What shows have you seen every episode to?

Oh way too many to even begin to list lol. But Friends is one of mine, The OC, Dawsons creek, 24 and many reality shows. I love DVR for this purpose I can record them and watch em all when I have the time.

I have watched some shows by seeing all the episodes most first run, some summer repeats for the earliest years however I reached a point where I never missed an episode this was before they were out on DVD, and even before VCR's. I watched MASH,
I have other shows that when reruns were shown more I saw all the episodes, and some I have seen all the way through.
And some I have seen from renting or whatever.
Some of the shows I have seen all the way through are West Wing, Star Trek the original series, Star Trek the Next Generation, Star Trek Deep Space Nine, Star Trek Voyager, Highlander, Firefly, MASH Tomorrow People [British Show saw it as a kid all the way through], Charmed, to date Monk, Psych, [still on the air so won't know til it is done]
For those who watched tv before VCR's etc, it is likely you will find a lot of people who saw the entire series due to the high amount of reruns that were on back when there was no competition of cable.
So there are a number of shows from when I was a kid that would also fit that catagory sitcoms, cop shows, medical shows, detective shows, etc.

You have seen a lot of shows. I didn't even think about before vcr's come out everyone watched reruns of shows so I bet alof of people have seen an entire series just not necessarily in order!

I only view a few shows on TV at all. They include CSI, NCIS, The Unit, Numbers and Flashpoint. I honestly dont think I have watched everyone of them without missing an episode though. I am often out of town

I've definitly have seen every episode of CSI (though maybe not all in order, but close). I've also seen all of the new Battlestar Galactica except for the last two episodes, which I have to watch on line.
I'm pretty sure I also saw the entire runs of Star Trek: TNG when it was on, as well as Buffy, Firefly (that did only last less than one season, so I'm not sure it counts). I'm close to catching up on the House reruns on USA from last season. I did get all ten seasons of Stargate SG1 on DVD for christmas, so I've been watching those, but I'm only up to season 6 so far (ten seasons is a LOT of episodes!) :-)

I always end up missing episodes of shows I wanted to see so the online catch up services TV stations offer now is great. I actually can't think of a show I've seen every episode of, maybe the first two series's of desperate house housewives, though I missed some of the last one (the end too which was the best bit )

The ER series is one of the best! I might try watching the entire series of Law and Order SVU next.

I have quite a few shows of which I've watched the entire series. A couple of my favourites that come to mind right away are Frasier, and The Nanny. I don't think there's an episode of Reba that I haven't seen, either.

I watched the first episode to the last of the tv series Charmed. I didn't watch the first episode when I first saw the show, but luckily TNT, shows reruns. With TNT, I got to watch the older episodes and on Sunday, I got to watch the new ones. It was really crappy that it went off the air. Now I am watching Lost, and SuperNatural, two really good shows, with really nice looking men on them, .

Nope, I have never watched one from beginning to end without missing a single episode. I usually moved a lot and it's difficult to follow up with my favorite TV series because sometimes the house where I rent the people have different preference.
Well, I got myself Grey's Anatomy Seasons 1-3 on DVD and I plan to watch them soon.

I have watched the whole episodes of Prey,Babylon Five, Firefly, The Pretender, Magnum PI, Mash (not my choice, but my husband loved the show) also House -had to catch up on some, and most of the CSI shows, but most of the others I watched most but have to wait until either they are in reruns or I want to get them on DVDS. I did watch a few mini series though.

We're quite lucky if you have virgin cable over here in the UK then they have a 'on demand' section with a selection of a few series' I did borrow a friends prison break and have watched series one and two and half way through series three. I've also watched a couple on line namely shameless and life on Mars, which probably won't mean much to you.

Well, if you count chinese serials, there are plenty!
But for the english ones, I managed to finish Robocop, the series.
If I remember right, I also managed to finish the A-team.
Blue Thunder.
V.
Knight Rider. The series featuring the black car.
Does cartoons count? If they do, then you can include Visionaries.

I am pretty sure I have seen every episode of friends, I used to watch ER all the time, but after my sister in law was killed I could not handle watching it for a while after that. I have seen every episode of Grey's Anatomy, Ugly Betty, Privagte Practice and Men in Trees, and Ocotober Road which were unfortunately both cancled.

Actually there are many shows where I've seen them all but not from renting them just from being on prime time and catching them in re-runs. The first one that comes to mind is "Star Trek", the original series. It was shown every weekend when I was growing up. Of course then there were shows that were on every summer in reruns including "The Monkees", "The Brady Bunch" and "Lost in Space". I've seen all the episodes at least once if not numerous times.
Now among semi-current shows I've seen all of "Charmed" and "Angel". I think I have of "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" but can't say 100% for sure. I know there are more but that's enough to make me look like a couch potato, which I swear I'm not

I am proud to say, luvstochat, that I have never missed an episode of 24! It is my all-time favorite show. Other shows that I have watched every episode of include Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Angel. I actually grieved when those shows were canceled.

The shows that I've seen every episode to are Bones, Charmed, Firefly, Buffy, Greys Anatomy and Dark Angel.
I'm also hoping to eventually getting around to seeing all the Highlander, Crossing Jordan and CSI series.
