New here & question - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

AdieAngel · 06-23-2005, 05:53 PM

Um, so... Hi, everybody! Okay, so I'm new here, obviously. I'm not terribly familiar with the whole message board thing in general, and after reading a bunch of messages, feel like a bit of a Moonlighting novice as well. Okay, so here goes.

I used to watch this show on AFN (Armed Forces Network) when I was little (like 8 or 9) in Berlin, Germany (I'm American, though). My mother loved it, I loved it, and I have since held many other he said/she said, should they/shouldn't they type shows up to it for comparison. Lois & Clark, Friends (Ross & Rachel), X-Files, etc. To my knowledge, none have lived up to the fabulous writing and chemistry of Moonlighting.

So you can't imagine how (well, since you're all here, I bet you can. Heh.) excited I was to hear that this show was out on DVD. I went out the first week to buy the set and it was sold out at two Targets and three Best Buys I checked, and had to wait a week to get them. But now that I have them, my addictive personality when it comes to television, reflected in my faster-than-light devouring of The Sopranos (four seasons in 3 weeks) and 24 (it took a week to catch up to the third season), coupled with an unhealthy amount of free time, has prompted me to come here.

Where's she going, you ask? Namely here: I am one episode away from finishing this DVD collection, and my addiction has only gotten stronger. I NEED to see the rest of this series. I've read about the infamous Sam vs. David mini-arc, the pregnancy that separated the stars for, what, all of 4th season?... that inafmous "Big Bang" scene (which I saw courtesy the awesome and addictive davidandmaddie.com), etc. But I just NEED TO SEE IT, y'know? The whole arc, where these characters go. Now, I know there is some in-the-future time when the rest will be out on DVD, but for now, all I have is the hope of one day being able to get one episode off the slow-as-molases eMule P2P program.

And so, with that, I impolore - nay, beg - any kind souls out there who would be willing to sell me the final three seasons on VHS or DVD. Quality isn't that important, as long as I can see the picture and hear the dialogue. I'm willing to pay (duh) for any tape/dvd, postage, and dubbing costs, along with a little extra if need be. It's supposed to take me 9 days at the current rate (I know!) to download just, "I am curious...Maddie" and if there was a way to get the rest of the series by then, I'd be one happy clam.

So, all that being said, and I am SO SORRY if I'm breaking any rules here, if there is anyone who would be willing to do this for me, please email me at adieangel@yahoo.com.

Thank you!

hi there! Welcome to the boards. Glad to hear you're enjoying the dvd's. I'd love to help you out - I have all the episodes on video, but am unable to revord video to video I'm afraid. I have also gotten some episodes from e-mule and put them onto dvd, it didn't take me too long. I would be happy to do copies of a couple for you, but I'm afraid that by the time I had done them and shipped them over to you (I'm in the UK) you probably would have downloaded them already.

Love Gem

Thanks for your nice words and your fabulous offers. Someone here (whose screen name I'm acutally not sure of

) has offered to copy the entire 3rd, 4th, and 5th seasons for me, and I've graciously accepted. I'm so excited! I'll be sure to lurk around here and maybe even put in a penny or two of my thoughts as the series progresses. I'm so looking forward to catching up with this series, and gossiping about it. Tee hee! Thanks so much!

Hi and welcome! Just watched In God We strongly Suspect last night...one of my favs and love that quote! ("I didn't and that's that")Still don't know about Season 3, but I hope word comes soon. I'm dying to see them on DVD. My tapes are so old, the quality stinks

So, I refuse to watch them...although, I might break down, depending on how long we have to wait for the other seasons. I hope they don't stop with Seasons 1 and 2...that would be a real shame. If I hear anything, I'll let you now.
