Right now:
SpongeBob Squarepants (season 1,2,3) Firefly Futurama (season 1,2,3,4) Family Guy (volume 1,2,3) Monty Python's Flying Circus (14-disc collection) Sealab 2021 (volume 1,2) Aqua Teen Hunger Force (volume 1,2,3,4) Space Ghost C2C (volume 1,2) 24 (season 1,2,3,4) Mystery Science Theatre 3000 (sooooo many, I can't count) I also have a few anime series like Cowboy Bebop, Outlaw Star, and Record of Lodoss War. I'm thinking of buying South Park. Hey Saks, if you like British comedies, try looking at a show called Coupling. It's one that had me in tears from laughing so hard. Rent it or something first, just in case it's not your thing.

Get The Adventures of Pete and Pete. Watching it as a young adult, it's still as good as when I was a kid.

It's hard to guage your taste in television. I know it took us awhile to convince you to watch Firefly. You might end up hating Coupling, though. I don't know if I want that blood on my hands.

If you do decide to give it a try make sure you get the UK edition and not the attempt at a US remake.

My TV show DVD collection is piddly due to general lack of funds. To whit:
Babylon 5: Seasons 1 & 2 Crusade: Full seaQuest: Season 1 Sliders: Seasons 1 - 3 Wing Commander Academy: Full I agree Pete & Pete is good, although I liked the original "specials" a bit better than the full-fledged series. I wish Nick would release Space Cases or Roundhouse on DVD... Are You Afraid of the Dark? would be cool as well. Peace & Luv, Liz

It was a series that ran for 4 years in the late 90's and had a few TV movies. Jarod was kidnapped as a young boy because he was a genius and could "Pretend" to be anything. He escapes and is hunting for his family while being chased be "The Centre" a secret organisation who kidnapped him. Every week he pretends to be be a different profession to help out people in trouble. I.e he can be a Doctor/Lawyer/Pilot/Pool Shark basically anyone.

Babylon 5: Seaons 1-5.
Deep Space Nine: Seasons 1-7 Battlestar Galactica (New series): Seasons 1-2 The Micallef P(r)ogra(me)e: Series 1-3 Wishing Flying Circus was available on DVD in Australia... I'd also like some Classic Doctor Who on DVD... I actually hate owning and buying DVDs. I think its such a pathetic waste of money. I hope I dont end up having any more.

Again I´m the odd bird: I don´t own one singel TV show on DVD. Neither does anyone else in my family.
But if there´s one I would like to have it´s the complete British Cold Feet series. A sort of more mature, realistic Friends. Actually one of the best I´ve ever watched. |

I forgot to mention one. I remembered that we have Schlupp vom Grünen Stern ("Schlupp from the Green Star") by the Augsburger Puppenkiste on DVD. The Augsburger Puppenkiste is a famous German Marionette theatre. I grew up with their performances that have been broadcast on TV. I hope to get the Opodeldoks on DVD soon.
