Hi, I just joined. I love to collect dvds and it feels great to find people like myself who rather watch a good old tv show instead of some of the trash they have now. Don't get me wrong i did like some current shows just not a whole lot.

Welcome!

I happen to love collecting TV on DVD, and I do like the classics instead of the modern crap. Hope you post on here frequently!

Welcome to our forum JJM. I've been collecting DVDs myself for nearly ten years now. My reason is the same as yours

(Lousy Programming, Excessive Advertising and, last but not least Sky High Pay-TV prices).

Cutting the cord (That's cancelling my Pay-TV subscription for those of you in Rio Linda!

) in January, 2007, I've used the money saved to procure my programming via home video (Mostly DVDs, but I also have some Blu-Rays and yes, even good old-fashioned VHS

). Pay-TV prices in my area have become so expensive that it's CHEAPER to acquire programming via home video.

Thank you, I've been collecting for about 15 years. But I didn't really start getting into it until 2006. When I graduated college and got a job so i could afford to. Now I have almost 80 show completed.

I don't have quite that many, but I have quite a few, and those have been quite a few of my favorites:

original-recipe 60s NBC Star Trek
Hart to Hart
Barney Miller
The Bob Newhart Show
M Squad

I know that I am late to the conversation but welcome to the board JJM! I myself am a fellow dvd collector who has quite a collection of Tv shows. I collect shows that I love and even some shows I hate. Alongside collecting Tv shows, I am starting to focus on collecting films and music CDs
