There is a difference between watching a show on TV and paying for it. If you could pick any show in history and have the ability to purchase just one or two which would they be? This singles out the ones you truly love from the ones you just like. I have bought several from Columbia House but the one I want more than any right now is WKRP, but I want it with the original music included. I keep calling CH and they keep saying it is on the list of coming shows available soon but no set date. I just keep hoping!

I'd gladly pay for uncut episodes of The Love Boat. I wish it would come to DVD or video.
I'm not sure what determines what makes it to DVD and what doesn't. Maybe nobody wants that particular show...
I just wish I could find someone who had the later episodes on tape.

I would love to own The Lucy Show (1962-1968) as well as I Love Lucy (1951-1957) and The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour (1957-1960). :D

Figures you want my show. Oh well the show I want most is Buffy, the second is The Facts of Life, and the third show is EVERY episode of Passions!!!! :D I still don't understand why Dark Shadows is the only soap opera on DVD, who would buy it? Besides loyal fans of coarse! :D

CH told you that it is going to be released?

I can tell you that it won't be with the original music unless something drastic has happened.

If it is coming to CH, I will buy it even without the original music, but I would prefer DVD.

Yes CH told me that it was on the list to be released soon but they have told me that for about a year or so but I suppose its better than when they used to say they had NO plans to release it. What is the deal with music? I knew NAN cut the music when they aired it but I think when its released on DVD the original music is included. Nick at nite was showing it for free but when you pay for the set doesnt that include the music rights as well? Those are soke good shows that people have posted that they want on DVD and some of you are lucky. I know Buffy is out on DVD and so is alot of the old I Love Lucy. Hogans Heros is out in December but the rest I am not sure about.

Charlie's Angels, Three's Company, Saved by the Bell, One Day at a Time, and of course...Gimme A Break! Most of these shows I have on tape however I would love to have them unedited!

The number one show I'd pay money for is "NewsRadio". Actually I would pay for just about any show. I have this fantasy of owning every episode of every show ever made. Next on my list is Wings.

Important Runner ups would be:
Chico and the Man
Boy Meets World
Ellen
ALF
Perfect Strangers
Taxi
Okay back to every show. I don't have much of a life, and TV is a big part of how I spend my days.

I would not pay for shows from fans over the internet. It would be too risky. I would buy shows from companies like Columbia House or Rhino Home Video but not from other fans. I can't think of a lot of shows to buy at this moment, though.

I would pay BIG money for all MST3K episodes. As I understand it, most of them will never be re-run so besides what I have taped, it's done.:(

If i could own a show it would be FACTS OF LIFE- with over 200 episodes and 3 tv movies.

This show is very underated - its great- A big part of the 1980s.:wave:

I'd love to be able to watch a full length episode- all the reuns today are edited so the channels can place extra commericals in them.
