I don't buy TV shows on DVD but I rent them a lot. My favs: The Office Mr. Show (hilarious HBO sketch comedy series) Prime Suspect and I have on my list Scrubs. I've actually never seen Scrubs, but it was recommended to me by my sister. And, do you mean Thundercats the old cartoon? That's awesome!

Oooh. Not me. I watch my favorites over and over. I find that it's the children's movies at my house that I feel don't get enough watching, but my series dvd's do and we (my friends and I) trade out and watch each others too.

I own Homicide: Life on the Street (seasons 1-4), Firefly (the one and only season), Farscape (all 4 seasons and the Peacekeeper Wars movie), Nip/Tuck (seasons 1&2), Coupling (seasons 1-3), and Northern Exposure (seasons 1&2). Eventually I would like to acquire the rest of Homicide, The Vicar of Dibley series, a couple seasons of Angel, and Rescue Me.

Well, we have Simpsons Series 1, Friends Season 1, and Er Seasons 1 and 2. I want to eventually own all of Simpsons, all of Law and Order SVU, all of House, and all of ER. It is interesting to watch shows change people like some of them do, and how they age.

I know what you mean about watching things change. We watched some of the Aqua Teens from season 1 over the weekend and the drawings have changed as well as some of the voices. It's the same with Family Guy too.

I like the older shows, the ones I can't get because we no longer have cable. I have Murder She Wrote, Murphy Brown, Andy Griffith, and Lost in Space. I'd have more, but they are expensive. So I wait to get them as gifts.

Ugh....Andy Griffith... that reminds me ... my uncle is the official Goober impersonator at all the Mayberry shows. We just went on a cruise... Cruise to Mayberry.

I have quite a few on DVD. I have some Lois & Clark DVDs, Smallville Seasons 1-5, Pete & Pete, Clarissa Explains It all, and some other old nick show DVDs. I have a bunch of random ones really. I'd like to get Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman because I used to watch that all the time.

OMG! Clarissa Explains It All? I had forgotten about that show. I will have to look for it. I loved that growing up... and "Hey Dude" and "Salute Your Shorts" and "Roundhouse." Did you watch any of those?

I have all 26 episodes of Cowboy Bebop and Season 3 of Aqua Teen Hunger Force (well technically it's my boyfriend's, but I traded my extra Triplets of Belleville DVD for Aqua Teen Hunger Force). I'd like to get Inuyasha and South Park as well.

I love Monty Python... we just saw the Broadway Spamalot. It's a riot. I love Zim. Gir is so cute in his dog outfit. We have a club here - Club Czar and it's an electroclash club but one of the rooms has these glittery silver wraparound boothes and they usually have Invader Zim playing on a huge screen.

I can't get into 24 and Prisonbreak. I can't stand how much goes on... if you miss an epside you are lost...It's too stressful and too edge of your seat for me.

I'm not sure how many seasons are out but I know at least the first one is. I've also caught them really late at night/early A.M. on the Cartoon network.

My family has the whole set of Gunsmoke on DVD. As for me personally, I never considered it because I'm not a big TV watcher, but if I did, anything containing Gilda Radner or maybe the Golden Girls would be fair game... maybe Unsolved Mysteries.

I love the Golden Girls. Oh - Unsolved Mysteries made me think of Xfiles for some reason - I'd like to have some of the older seasons on DVD.

I really like friends too. I hesitate to buy them just yet because they are still on TV everyday. When they stop airing the reruns I may buy them then.

Well I'm a big Seinfeld fan so you know I gotta have them. I haven't gotten any yet but I will soon. I want all the seasons, 1-7, and you know buying them all at once can be pretty pricy. I also want all seasons of Spongebob. I gotta have my Spongebob but I don't know how many seasons their are. I'm hoping to find out so I can go out and get them. I don't know if they have this show on DVD but if they don't I'll just buy it on the iTunes Music Store, but I want a show called American Gangster. This show is about 6 of the most notorious gangsters that changed the streets. In the show people talk about what they did, who they where, they talk about their live's so people will know the truth. It's a very interesting show.

Right now I don't have any on DVD but there are many I'd like to get. Just so many of them are expensive to buy and a bit out of my price range at the moment. Mostly I'd like to buy the ones that I can't watch in re-runs right now. Like 21 Jump Stret for example. That's a set I'd love to buy.
