I'm taping the Rerun show well just DS and FOL so far anyways
I also taped a buch of reunion show such as the Cosby reunion, Facts of life, Carol Burnett, and The Honeymooners I even have I Love Lucy's 50th Anniversary and SNL's 25th Anniversary.

Sorry for the 2nd post

im collecting Married with children episodes and episodes of Threes company and Diffrent strokes that i really like. and now im taping the rerun show so if people want episodes they missed i can illegally duplicate an episode to a tape and sell it to who ever buys it.

I have loads of shows that I've taped off TV but I dunno why I bother cos I hardly ever watch 'em.

The Amanda Show (Nickelodeon - every episode)
Ellen (Paramount Comedy and Channel 4 - all of seasons 3, 4 and 5)
The Osbournes (MTV - every episode, unbleeped)
My So-called Life (Trouble TV - every episode)
A Different World (Paramount Comedy - all of the first season)
Bubblegum Crisis (Sci-Fi - every episode of the original series)
Twin Peaks (Channel 5 - all of the first season)

I think that's all of 'em. That's all the ones I have in my room anyway - I may have more in boxes in the cellar. I'm gonna start taping Freaks and Geeks on E4 too.

The Division (like 6 tapes)

That's it.

I usually have no money, so the only series I've ever taped was FOL now. I've taped like 2 episodes of Lucy and The Nanny beofre, but I wasn't trying to collect hem all, since they'd be on my local channels for years. The only reason I'm taping FOL is to make sure to have some episodes if it ever decides to go off the air for a couple of more years, knowing American Television. :rolleyes:

i recently got alot of my tapes back because when i use to tape a show everyday, there might have been an episode i didnt wanna tape over. so i would have to find another tape to tape it the next day. so a few months ago i hooked 2 VCRs up together and put them all on one tape.

I have all the I love Lucy episodes.. ( well most of them, i think I need only a few more episodes.. like 4 or 5 then ill have the whole collection)

I want to start collecting The Lucy Show episodes when its on teh air again on Hallmark.

I have Get Smarts episodes

and The Facts of Life :)

Happy Days,Laverne & Shirley (over 100 tapes!!!)
Brady Bunch, Threes Co, Wonder Years, FOL..basically I tape shows that I LOVE and would be P.O'd if they took off the air. Which is what they did to most of these shows...ohh yeah theyre on TVland...BUT I dont get it!!!lolol
Basically, any TV special,movie etc. that has to do with ANY of those shows
I used to tape Nick@Nite specials on my shows, like every weekend..but now the shows suck (in MY opinion!!!)

I taped some shows that I like, that may be near cancellation like the Ellen show. I should have taped Oh Grow Up when it was on. But I didn't know ABC so going to cancel a show that was doing ok in the ratings. So they could put more Millionaire on.

FOL.....I had some tapes of Buffy and Gilmore Girls but I don't know where those went.... lol.

Also I had taped some of "Passions" too.

Right now, I'm primarily collecting episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000. I also have a Twilight Zone collection and I'm halfway through a Batman collection.

I have a bunch of Leave it to Beaver eps on tape. I recently started collecting The Twilight Zone DVDs.

I have the entire Mama's Family.
Also some Facts of Life, Newhart, In the Heat Of The Night.
I also taped Nick's Christmas show episodes.

I've been thinking of buying some Twilight Zone DVDS when I get some more money. Do they have a ton of extra stuff on them or is just the episodes?

I'm just reading what it says on the back of the DVD...

Special Inside The Twilight Zone Section- Includes bio info on Rod Serling, History of the Twilight Zone, Reviews, Cast info, and a season by season comentary. Trivia.

The DVDs differ though. Vol 11 has a different menu and extras than say Vol 21. It's weird.

All of that sounds cool. The thing is that I'm not sure I could break my 4th of July and New Years tradition by not recording the marathon. I've recording the 2 marathons for about 3 or 4 years, so even if I do get the dvds I would still record the marathons. It's a tradition to me. lol

I taped the shows I Love Lucy, The Dick Van Dyke Show, Happy Days, The Brady Bunch, Diff'rent Strokes, The Facts of Life, Three's Company, The Andy Griffith Show, Gidget, Who's the Boss, Growing Pains, Dennis the Menace, Get Smart, Mama's Family, Little House on the Prairie, 3rd Rock from the Sun, 7th Heaven, Dawson's Creek.

I just started taping Leave It To Beaver.

Well they don't have all of The Twilight Zone eps on DVD but there are quite a few of them and I wouldn't want you to break your tradition of taping the eps. I still watch the marathons on Sci Fi every year too. The DVDs do have some extra stuff on them so if you're a big Twilight Zone fan you might want to start collecting some of them.

I also have 3rd Rock From the Sun, Seinfeld, and Jesse taped.

I have a long history of taping. I began taping in March of 1997.
