what was the very first TV DVD you watched, and what was the first thing you watched on it?

My first one was disc 1 of season 1 of "The Dick Van Dyke show" and the first thing I watched on it was "Head of the Family" the pilot for the series that Carl Reiner wrote & starred in, with Barbera something as his wife.

the first season of Sex And The City, I watched the pilot episode. When I bought that over 4 years ago I had NO idea how big TV-DVD would become. While I bought season 1 and 2 in 2001, I didn't buy another set until Buffy The Vampire Slayer came out in early 2002.

My first TV on DVD was The Golden Girls: Season 1. I watched the pilot episode, "The Engagement" on Christmas Day last year. I haven't been collecting TV on DVD for very long, as it is only recently that my favourite TV shows have been released on DVD.

The first was Punky Brewster Season 1 and I watched "Punky in the Record Business" cos it had Andy Gibb in it too.

The Carol Burnett Show Stoppers - May of 2003.

Cheers - Season 1 in November of 2003. Of course, I watched the first episode.

I thought it was pretty neat.

My first TV DVD was Star Trek:The Next Generation season one. The first thing I watched was the pilot episode, "Encounter At Farpoint".

Dean Winchester · 08-10-2005, 01:59 AM

I think most of us usually watch the first episode when we get a set first. The one exception I can think of was season 1 of Diff'rent Strokes. I watched "The Girls School", the season finale FIRST, because it was the pilot for Facts Of Life.

Superstar · 08-10-2005, 07:36 AM

Friends season 10 I think.

On Christmas, with the new DVD player my dad got for Christmas from my mom, the 1st dvd to go in, "Three's Company- Season One", a gift from my brother.

I watched the pilot, and the second and third episodes.

First tv related thing I bought was the miniseries Roots in January 2002. Later that year I got the Schoolhouse Rock collection. First regular series I got was a single disc Good Times Columbia House collection of the first four episodes, a few months before the first season set was released. First season set was Sopranos season 3.

I'd say I watched Schoolhouse Rock first, what I specifically watched on that disc first: I don't remember.
