Have you ever blasted through multiple Seasons of a TV Show all at once?

[Janice]

I recently caught a couple of episodes of How I Met Your Mother, and just fell in love with the show. It's in its 6th season now, but fortunately for me, the other five episodes are available via Netflix. We're halfway through season three now.

We've done this with Lost, Desperate Housewives, Dexter and a few others that I can't remember now. It's a blast. We often watch until 4am, sleep until noon, sleep, shower, do whatever needs to be done, then back to our marathon. We're like zombies, lol. Depending on how many seasons, it usually takes a few weeks. I just got two discs in the mail, and I can't wait. Has anyone ever done this?

I cant say that I have. I dont think I could spend that much time in front of the television set.

[Family Ties Forever!]

I did that with Frasier. The show was great. I saw a few episodes. I really liked the show and from that point was hooked. I flew through 11 seasons of the show on dvd. I liked it so much that I bought all 11 seasons on dvd and own them. While Family Ties will always be my all-time favorite show, Frasier is definitely toward the top of the list.

Also I did that with The Mary Tyler Moore Show and The Bob Newhart Show (1970's one). I'm currently waiting for Netflix to have available copies of the sixth season of TMTMS.

I think it's fun to watch episodes of shows back to back within a short time span.

I've been on a Married with Children kick lately, I just can't seem to watch it enough

[HuntingtonM15]

I got through seasons 1-4 of Melrose Place quite quickly. Then they took forever releasing season 5, and they did it in 2 volumes, so that took even longer. It will probably be months before season 6 is available.

[Schmoopie]

I did that with Seinfeld a while back. I watched for days and I think I got through all nine seasons. I even stayed up all night before having to get on a plane at 6 the next morning watching Seinfeld. Then after a week away, I came back and resumed where I had left off! I'm thinking of doing that again!

I did something similar with Little House on the Prairie, but I burned myself out on it. It's a shame too, since I love that show, but that was way too much of a good thing. I haven't watched it since. I think now it's been a long enough time (At least a year if not more) that I have been away from it that I could probably enjoy it again.

[Impressions]

I did that last month with Sex & the City. I have all the DVDs and watched the entire series, all 6 seasons and 94 episodes in 3 weeks.

[comedyfreak]

I did that with Dexter on seasons 1 and 2. Also with Father Knows Best seasons 1 and 2.

[PZelda]

Currently doing that with 7th Heaven. Right now, I have seasons 1-6 and 9 on DVD... after tomorrow, I'll buy seasons 7 and 8 online. Season 10 is set to be released towards the end of March, so I figure I should be all caught up by then. No word on when they're releasing season 11... But goddamn that show is addictive. Watched it often in its original run, having a blast re-watching the episodes on DVD. Just started season 5 yesterday and ohhhhh, it's getting GOOD.

I occasionally have Cheers marathons, since I own all 11 seasons on DVD now. But I did that even before all 11 seasons were out... I haven't had a full Cheers marathon yet. I do this also with Full House (have all 8 seasons). I can breeze through Full House *really* fast. It's one show I remember watching when it debuted in 1987, so I still enjoy it after all these years.

I have had a few marathons of different shows. Last summer I had watched all of the seasons in Futurama in about two weeks. I watch all the seasons of Six Feet Under in about two months.

[Adamantium]

There have been a few shows I watched on DVD from beginning to end (only stopping ocassionally to have a life or work), in a matter of weeks to months (or days if it's a short show).

Those shows are: (in alphabetical order)

Ally McBeal
Andy Richter Controls the Universe
Angel
Birds of Prey
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Charles in Charge
The Comeback
Coupling
Extras
Grounded for Life
Hearts Afire
It's Garry Shandling's Show
The King of Queens
Married with Children (I just finished that a few days ago)
NewsRadio
Planet of the Apes
Reaper (It's what I'm currently watching)
Soap
What's Happening!!

Some shows I started but didn't finish for whatever reason:
The A-Team (I like it, but was just bored after a while. You've seen one, you've seen them all)

Are you Being Served? (I love this show, but I was anxious to skip ahead to see all the cast changes. After I did that, going back was a problem for me.)

Daniel Boone (I love this show, just felt like watching something different)

Land of the Lost (I don't remember why)

Street Fighter: The Animated Series (I just got bored with it)

Three's Company (I don't remember, but I made it to season four before stopping.)

Titus (Wasn't in the mood to finish)

Wings (Around season six, the news that Taxi was going to be complete on DVD, got me out of the Wings mood and into the Taxi mood. I just never went back to finish off Wings.)

And then there are current shows, or shows that as I buy a season, I watch it all at once....

Curb Your Enthusiasm (I always have a marathon, watching all 10 episodes the day I get it.)

How I Met Your Mother (I always watch the new season in a matter of days)

Scrubs (I watched seasons 1-6 all together. Then I got season 7, watched it and finally season 8, and watched it)

The list goes on and on.

I think those recent snowstorms stuck with you, Rich, with all this plow talk.

[Courtnee]

Yes, ma'am, I sure have. I've done that with Family Guy, American Dad, and Man Vs. Food.
