Boxsets

[champ1966]

I don't tend to watch tv much nowadays, most of it doesn't interest me anymore. So more often than not I watch boxsets, rather than watch the series as they're aired.I don't like being tied to a set time,and always miss a crucial episode. Here's my favourites list:

Drama

The Sopranos
The Wire
Hannibal
The Shield
Breaking Bad

 

[champ1966]

Comedy

Curb Your Enthusiasm

I'm sure once I get home I'll realise I've missed some.

Tony!

Wasn't he just fantastic on "The Sopranos"?

I like British shows and have seen every episode of "Foyle's War" and "Doc Martin". I'm also a big Joss Whedon fan and have seen every episode of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer", "Firefly", and "Doll House". Right now I'm making my way through "The X Files". I never saw any of these programs when they originally aired. I agree with you, champ 1966-- it's a lot more comfortable to watch them at your leisure.

To watch:
Sons of Anarchy(never watched it so it will be from the very beginning)
Hannibal
OZ
Plan to re watch all three seasons of American Horror Story.

Liked Boardwalk Empire, The walking Dead (even if it was a weak second season), Rome
Always liked Friends when it comes to comedy. But of course Fawlty Towers can't be beaten but there is so few episodes

How could I forget Boardwalk Empire? And Game of Thrones, I'm reading GoT and then watching the series. I've one more book to go. So many on my "to buy" list.. Walking Dead ...House of Cards to name just 2. Fawlty Towers is a classic. More recent British comedies I love are The League of Gentlemen and Phoenix Nights.

I too like my Brit shows. Foyle's War is excellent. I've been trying to catch up on some of them on Acorn TV as we don't have Sat or cable. Lately I've been watching Rumpole, Inspector Morse, Maigret. Plus Time Team etc...

People have told me to go on Netflix, but I treat my DVDs like I do books. I like them on display, not sat in a microchip.

Tales from the Crypt with the Crypt Keeper

Yes!!!! I love this show. Need to do some re watching myself. There are so many good episodes it's hard to pick faves but one of them(and an annual Dec viewing tradition in my home)is...

 

[Lord Tyrion]

It's so much cheaper though. Battlestar Galactica cost me $90 (on sale!), whereas Netflix is only $8 a month.

However, I will own dvd's of tv shows I really love like Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, Mad Men, John Adams and West Wing.

...I watch when AMC runs marathons, but I'm at work when the new episodes air...damn job anyway...

Breaking Bad is some of the most outstanding television of our time. Brilliant! "Ozymandias" episode in the last season- absolutely gripping, chilling, literally in shreds after watching. Ah!!!!

I do love Scandal. Don't get to watch too much tele but I do enjoy a great series.
