You know, im a freak. And I have recorded like... hmmm... 125 episodes on tape and that means alot of tapes. I think Im gonna build a fireproof room with just my FOL tapes in it. Anyone else like me??
BTW today i got a refill of tapes at wal-mart. I got 10 for 8.98 or somethin. Always be prepared. hahaha:lol:

You buy RCA tapes too? Wal-Mart sells 10 pack of RCA tapes for 8.98 is why I'm asking. I have about 25 to 30 tapes of FOL. I re-record them from USA to N@N to TV Land and now on Hallmark.

I have 27 tapes and am only missing 1 episode now...I buy maxell tapes and I get them 8 for like 8 dollars. I dont know I make my mom buy them for me :D I don't buy them for FOL episodes anymore because I have almost every episode but I do tape FRIENDS.

My parents say I need an extra room just to store all my tapes too. I have no idea how many tapes I have. I bet I could wallpaper the whole house with as many tapes as I have.

My parents get a kick out of me making copies of some shows too. I tape Batman now and I'm doing copies now. They always ask me, why I keep taping the same thing over and over again? I know it probably sounds crazy to some, but I want to at least have 3 copies of each episode. You never know when tvland might drop Batman and never show it again. If I taped all the episodes once and something happened to that tape, then I'd be screwed. I wouldn't have a chance to record it ever again. My parents still don't understand it.

I just like retaping shows from different networks to see which scenes were cut out and put in. But besides FOL tapes I'd say I have over 200 tapes filled with different shows like Buffy, Batman (scifi & TV Land) , Christmas shows (I have 12 tapes already) , Small Wonder, Bewitched, Charmed, Alice, cartoons, and other shows. I love recording! Who ever invented VCRs had a WONDERFUL mind! :D

"recordo-land" :lol: I think you're the only one who named it lol but its all good

I have 1463 tapes of different shows, all in EP mode!!! Yes, I use a whole entire room for my tapes.

I have over 160 episodes of FOL right now and I'm just waiting for hallmark to finish the first time around.

Some of us weren't as fortunte to be around when it originally aired. But I have 206 episodes from reruns and 2 from original (thanks mom lol)

I wasn't either...I was just really lucky to have an uncle who once worked w/ some of the proucers of FOL...and taped them all.

Did he work with Rita Dillon? She's a sweetheart...

I have about 8 full tapes of FOL now. About.................96 eps. All from Hallmark cause when it was on NIck, I had no clue was it was. I started to love it and was going to start to tape but at about season 8, we moved out of IL and I didn't get to see FOL until this past summer.

Me too! LOL! My closet is full of tons and tons and tons of tapes!

welcome to recordo-land :lol:

Sadly...right when I wanted to start taping FOL, it went off N@N..and SOME of us dont get Hallmark:( . I do tape Happy Days though (except I stopped when it went off N@N too, but our cable company is getting TVLand in November:D ) and I have over 100+ of the show (they all seem to be the same episodes though lol:rolleyes: . Ive also got L&S on them. I went to WalMart too and bought clear tape plastic covers, because for some reason I seem to have more tapes than covers:rolleyes: . I also just made this HUGE nice looking episode/tape guide with ratings and everything.

You too? I have to admit that problem has came up on me before too. It's kind of like the bunny trick that magicians do where all these bunnies come out of the hat. I must have magic tapes because they do the same thing. The tapes keep multiplying, but the boxes disappear.

I've got the exact same problem with my tape cases, I don't understand where a lot of them dissapear to!

I think I have 7 tapes of FOL now, 5 TV Land and 2 Nick@Nite.

Yea, and I recorded on EP mode cause there was no way I was going to buy like 50 tapes. PLus I didn't have the money. The sound might be a little quieter than normal, but it doesn't get to me. All they need to do is start releasing FOL on DVD, but we know that would never happen. I'd love it if they put all the eps from each season on DVD so you only have 9 DVD's. Even thought I don't have a DVD player I'd still buy it so if I ever get one. Lol...........
