Just out of curiousity, how do you people tape Fol? Do you have a different tape for each espoiode? do you record the commericials? theme songs? or Do you tape them in order or do you just mix them around?

I tape the episodes in order, and I also include the opening and ending credits (w/theme song)

I can usually fit a season on one or two tapes. I tape everything but the commercials (unless it's one about Revenge of the 80's etc.) I try to tape them in order. I have seperate tape(s) for the eps shoen out of order (MYOS, Black History Fridays, etc.)

When I used to tape them, I'd put about 4 or 5 episodes on one tape. I don't tape them anymore, in fact I don't even watch it anymore. I'm waiting for it to come out on Columbia House.

I record about 12 episodes on each tape. (So far I have 5 tapes.) There is a feature on my VCR that allows you to set the it to record at specific times. So, every night I set it up to record. I do record the commercials and credits, because once you set it up it's a pain to have to stop it for the commercials. I tape them in order, and I label which eps are on each tape, so I can find my favorites easily.

Well I tape as many episodes on one 6 hour tape as I can..Usually that is 18 or 20 episodes..So far I have used up 11 tapes! After tape #2 I think the episodes are in order after that by season....Because I taped FOL when it was on the marathon.I don't tape commercials and I some times tape the beginning theme I always tape the end theme. Hope that helped!

I don't really tape them in order. I just tape them wherever I have room... So far I only have on tape that's just FOL, but I have plenty of episodes. If it's Monday-Thursday I don't tape the commercials or the ending credits, but if it's a MYOS episode I just hit record and usually leave the room. And on Saturday nights, and the early Sat. morning episode and the early Mon. morning episode I just time record so I get the commercials.
