I just read this on your insomnia thread and I had to ask you this.

Who else DOES NOT BUY any tv shows on DVD's?

Hollow · 01-06-2008, 02:14 AM

me...

Janice · 01-06-2008, 02:29 AM

Not only that, but the few times, people have given me shows on DVD to me, I've given them away.

I don't want a collection. I hate clutter. I get rid of everything. I give books away after I read them, things like that.

Well, I'd have a lot more shelf space if I didn't....

But there's no way. I like having my favorite TV shows available to me when I want them.

Exactly! If I didn't have my M*A*S*H, Three's Company, Friends and Golden Girls I'd be miserable! I really want the first Season of Welcome Back Kotter and 8 Simple Rules and Damn it I want the rest of Night Court on DVD! They only put out Season one!

it really depends on the show. I unloaded a lot of my DVD's on ebay but there are a lot of shows I really love and like having the episodes at my disposal (shows like Roseanne, Buffy, South Park, Facts Of Life, Sex And The City, Golden Girls, Curb Your Enthusiasm, several others...). Now that Roseanne is gone from Nick, I feel better about having all nine seasons.

I used to not but dvd on tv I was used to taping shows on my vcr but then I bought andy Griffith at Wal-Mart for 20 bucks and was hooked. The convience of not rewinding a tape, fast forwarding to an episode, no commercials. Now I have a lot of catching up to do on my favorite shows. I love dvd's

Mr. Television · 01-06-2008, 11:50 AM

I don't really have a large TV/DVD collection. The only shows I have a complete collection of is the A-Team and Three's Company. I have all the seasons of Dallas that have been released. I have a few half-collections like Lost and 24 but I have no idea when I'm going to get the rest of them. I'm too slow at buying them because of my movie collection.

TJL · 01-06-2008, 11:54 AM

I honestly don't remember when I bought my last TV DVD. It's been a while, I know that much.

Tom, everytime I see your avatar I think about that part in the pilot episode when Hotlips brings Frank in and he's all wrapped up like a Mummy and Hawkeye says, "The mummy strikes!"

I know what you mean Janice abt the clutter. I just did some "spring cleaning" when we took down the Christmas tree and I put my living room back to normal. I got rid of some dust collectors.

I keep my DVD's in my bedroom because I don't like seeing things like DVD's being seen as part of my living room decor. I remember back in the days when VHS was the thing and we had a large shelf filled with them. I got so sick of cleaning and dusting them periodically. Such a pain. It also made my living room look cluttered. When DVD's became the thing, I got rid of most of my VHS tapes, the rest I have in storage.
