I was just wondering how many TV box sets people own. A lot of DVD fans say they would never buy a show that's still on TV, but hey, who knows. Ok, I'll Start. In no Favorite order: 1. The Twilight Zone: Collection 1 2. The Sopranos: Season 1 3. The Sopranos: Season 2 4. The Sopranos: Season 3 5. The Sopranos: Season 4 6. Futurama: Season 1 7. Futurama: Season 2 8. Futurama: Season 3 9. Futurama: Season 4 10. The Critic: The Complete Series 11. Dilbert: The Complete Series 12. Curb Your Enthusiasm: Season 1 13. Curb Your Enthusiasm: Season 2 14. Seinfeld: Seasons 1-3 Gift Pack (On Pre-Order) 15. Aqua Teen Hunger Force: Volume 1 16. Aqua Teen Hunger Force: Volume 2 17. Sealab 2021: Volume 1 18. Space Ghost Coast to Coast: Volume 1 19. Strangers With Candy: Season 1 20. Strangers With Candy: Season 2 21. Strangers With Candy: Season 3 22. The Awful Truth: Season 1 23. The Awful Truth: Season 2 24. Clerks: The Animated Series: The Complete Series 25. All in the Family: Season 1 26. All in the Family: Season 2 27. Family Guy: Volume 1 and 2 28. Family Guy: Volume 3 29. CSI: Season 1 30. Lost in Space: Season 1 31. King of Queens: Season 1 32. Everybody Loves Raymond: Season 1 33. 24: Season 1 34. OZ: Season 1 35. Dallas: Seasons 1 and 2 There they are, I guess I don't really leave the home a lot unless it's to go buy more DVDs.  Doctor Ferro
And you liar, teller of tall tales: you trample all the Lord's commandments underfoot, you murder, steal, commit adultery, and afterward break into tears, beat your breast, take down your guitar and turn sin into a song. Shrewd devil, you know very well that God pardons singers no matter what they do, because he can simply die for a song.

Simpsons seasons 1-3. One of these days I'm gonna get around to buying the fourth season and I'll hopefully see that fifth one around Christmas time. I still have a bunch of commentaries and other special feature I want to get through on the third season.
I also have The West Wing Complete First Season and my brother (who I trade of with frequentely) has the second season and the complete Sports Night collection. I'm a real fan of Aaron Sorkin's writing, though I doubt I'll bother with West Wing's Third Season which will be coming out. As with all good TV writing, it eventually loses the touch.
That's really all. There are so many I want to get, but many (such as the Star Trek seasons) are ridiculously expensive and there already a bunch of actual films I want to get.

Malcom 1 Yeah, I've been collecting DVD's since they came out and have assembled over 400 now. I'm kinda pissed because I've liked movies my whole life and I have just as many VHS. I really would like to get Band of Brothers and the rest of the CSI Series. Doctor Ferro

Not many to report, but here goes:
Phoenix Nights Season 1 and 2
Spooks Season 1 (known as MI5 in the States, I'd highly recommend it)
Buffy Season 1
Twin Peaks Season 1 (itching for Season 2!)

Wiseguy : seasons 1 - 3 24 : season 1 & 2 Sopranos : seasons 1 - 4 Oz : season 1 And been searching high and low for a season set of The Gangster Chronicles for over 3 years now, but just can't seem to find it. Probably never made. I am also waiting for the U.S. release of the Mini Series "Rich Man Poor Man." I know that it is available over in The UK and Europe, but it has not been released in the USA yet.

Today I found two boxed sets of the classic Abbott and Costello movies on DVD! Each boxed set has 8 of thier movies and they retail for $19.99 a set! It's about time that they put these guys on DVD! Here is the list : Volume # 2 : Hit The Ice, In Society, Here Come The Coeds, The Naughty Nineties ( who's on first skit), Little Giant, The Time Of Thier Lives, Buck Privates Come Home, & The Wistful Widow Of Wagon Gap. Volume # 3 : Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein, Mexican Hayride, A & C Meet The Killer, A & C In The Foreign Legion, A & C Meet The Invisible Man, Comin Round The Mountain, Lost In Alaska & A & C GO To Mars. Now the search is on for Volume # 1. Don Cardi

Don Cardi, what's Wiseguy about & is it any good? How would you compare it with The Sopranos?
Wiseguy is a fantastic show that was way ahead of it's time. I beieve that it aired in the early 90's. It was a weekely series about an undercover OCB agent who infiltrates different illegal activities and scenarios. The first season this agent, Vinnie Teranova ( played by Ken Wahl ), infiltrates a Mob family, The Steelgraves, ( brothers played by Ray Sharkey and Gianni Russo ) and gets in real deep. ( I know it sounds like a Donnie Brasco, but it's nothing like it at all ). The situations that this agent gets into are real cliffhangers and they make you wonder every episode how the hell he is going to get out of them! What really makes this Steelgrave season interesting is that this agent, while staying legitimate, builds a close bond and deep compassion for one of the Steelgrave brothers. If you like mob movies and undercover stuff, this first set with the Steelgraves is a must. The Second season set is a great storyline also, where agent Terranova infiltrates the world of a crazy, eccentric business man who is involved in some sick illegal activites and beyond, named Mel Profitt who was played by an unkown actor at that time named Kevin Spacey. Do yourself a favor and at least buy the first season Steelgrave Episodes set, then take it from there. Here is an online review about this show : "One TV series that to this day enjoys the benefits of a classic because of good scripts, a tremendous cast and just the right timing is WISEGUY." "It has all the characteristics that made The Godfather famous and Goodfellas Scorsese's best picture - and the decision by creator Stephen J Cannel to break the rules of conventional TV and present the show in the form of several arch-type episodes instead of "one-hour conclusion" shows was the key to its success among fans."

Annette Benning, Kevin Spacey, Jerry Lewis, Stanley Tucci, Anthony Denison, Chazz Palminteri & Ron Silver to name a few. Don Cardi

I can't wait for Seinfeld. The Gift set looks so cool! Just so everyone knows, if you order it from BestBuy.com for about $75 bucks, you get a free coupon for $25 on your next buy. I did this. I plan on getting a new Bogart movie with that coupon. If you get only season 1 and 2 or season 3, then you get a $10 dollar coupon instead. But the gift set is worth it.

I'm planning on getting these 2 DVD's (just the DVD's & not the entire set), but I might have to order it over the internet b/c I KNOW they'll be sold out on day 1, plus I don't know if they're gonna offer a raincheck for it. Just check Bestbuy.com. Enjoy. Doc
