bmasters9 January 20, 2018 Share January 20, 2018 (edited) Just was wondering: which series do you have all of on DVD (whether through all the individual seasonal releases, or the all-in-one [all of it in one release])? Here are a couple of mine: Wanted: Dead or Alive (1958-61 CBS B/W Western w/the great, late Steve McQueen), and Petrocelli (1974-76 NBC legal series w/Barry Newman, Susan Howard and the late Albert Salmi).

BW Manilowe January 21, 2018 Share January 21, 2018 It counts if we have the whole series but bought the seasons individually & not in an all-inclusive set, right? I have an Olivia Newton-John concert that aired on HBO in the early '80's, I think & was taped during her show at Weber State University in Utah, around the time when her song Physical was being banned from the radio in various conservative parts of the US for being "too suggestive". And I just ordered a DVD from a concert tour she did in Australia a few years ago with a male Australian singer/songwriter she knows (not Keith Urban), & the DVD version of her last Hits compilation (both of which were recorded live at the Sydney Opera House in Australia). I have 2-3, maybe more, DVDs that came with Celine Dion CDs & at least 1 individual concert DVD by her. I have, probably, over 2 dozen Barry Manilow DVDs--mostly live concerts taped for airing on cable TV or PBS, or as part of a 2-disc Live release with both an audio & video disc; the rest are "traditional" variety specials he did, back in the day, for airing on ABC & CBS; I also have "Making of" DVDs/Dualdiscs about the making of a few of his CDs; the DVD for the TV movie he starred in for CBS in 1985 based on his song Copacabana; a Live by Request show he did for A&E sometime in the '90's, I think, where he did songs from his Christmas albums at that point, plus his hits (he also did another episode of this series which didn't involve Christmas music; I also have a DVD of various performances of Barry's (I think TV & Concert) which was included with his then-career spanning boxed set, released in late 1992. I also have: All 4 seasons of the sci-fi series Torchwood; all 7 seasons of The West Wing--purchased individually & as the Complete Series box set; the single seasons of Three Rivers & Moonlight, Alex O'Loughlin's 2 failed CBS series before the Hawaii Five-0 reboot became a hit; all 4 seasons of Starsky & Hutch; & the only season of Aaron Sorkin's followup to The West Wing, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. I also have Season 1 of Brothers & Sisters, which I started buying because Rob Lowe joined the cast & stayed through the end of Season 4, but I never bought S2, 3, & 4 yet. I also have S1-4 of The Americans, a show that airs on FX (& has aired 5 seasons, but hasn't released the S5 DVDs yet), which stars Keri Russell (Felicity) & Matthew Rhys (who had played the gay brother on Brothers & Sisters before this show) as Russian spies pretending to be Americans, married travel agents with 2 tween/teenage kids, who are embedded in the Washington DC area during the Reagan presidential era; & I have the 7 seasons of the current Hawaii Five-0 which have already come out on DVD (S8 is currently airing on CBS & won't be on DVD until this season finishes airing... anywhere from this spring until next fall, when S9 hopefully begins airing). I also have the TV movie The Return of Ironside; the original version of Ironside, with Raymond Burr, was a favorite show of mine, back in the day (Blair Underwood starred in a very short-lived NBC reboot a few years ago, which I think wasn't successful because the only things they used from the original were the titular character's name & the premise that he was a police officer/detective in a major US city who suffered a permanently-paralyzing gunshot injury, resulting in paraplegia & permanent use of a wheelchair, & who went back to solving crimes upon his recovery, aided by a team of associates, most of whom were police officers before joining Ironside's team--the character names of Ironside's associates were among the elements not transferred between the original & the reboot). I also have 3 movies: The Other Side of the Mountain & The Other Side of the Mountain Part 2, late 1970's biographical films about 1950's amateur skier/ski champion Jill Kinmont (later Jill Kinmont Boothe), a hopeful for the 1956 US Winter Olympics Ski Team (those games were held in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy) who lost control during her run at the Snow Cup in Alta, Utah (apparently then 1 of the last big qualifiers for places on the US Winter Olympics Ski Team) & crashed, breaking her neck & rendering herself a wheelchair-dependent quadriplegic, permanently paralyzed from the neck down, just short of her 19th birthday. Despite the severity of the injury, modern medicine/physical rehabilitation at the time (& after) was able to keep her alive until 2012, when she died at 75. Between her injury & death, she became a respected educator; originally at Indian Reservation schools in the area of her Bishop, California, hometown. They would hire her despite her disability, because they needed teachers badly enough they didn't have any rules about hiring/not hiring disabled people like the major, mostly public, school systems in larger cities in California (& probably the rest of the US) did at the time. She also married trucker John Boothe in 1976; they remained married until her death. And I have Unconditional Love (2002). That's a kinda cute movie, starring (among others) Kathy Bates, Rupert Everett, Dan Aykroyd & Meredith Eaton, who's on the current MacGyver reboot as the Director of the Phoenix Foundation, a covert operation believed to be a think tank, which sends MacGyver & friends on secret missions to save the world. It also has a cameo appearance by Barry Manilow at the end. 1 Link to comment

I also have a couple of Japanese doramas (101st Marriage Proposal and No Money!) that look like bootlegs, though I didn't know that when I bought them. I want Mad Men, but I'm holding off and wondering if DVD might be on its way out as a viable medium. I bought my first player in 2004 and it lasted 12 years and then crapped out, so I started using a combo VCR/DVD that I bought in '08 but that was always kind of clunky and terrible and so got almost no use before that but after only a few months of daily use, it died too. Finding a new player wasn't that easy; there were just the same two low-rated Sony players at Amazon, Target, Best Buy, and Walmart, and I ended up getting one of those, but it's not that great.

Bastet January 21, 2018 Share January 21, 2018 I have a lot of TV shows on DVD/Blu-Ray, but most of those I have in their entirety are shows that ran anywhere from one to four seasons; with longer-running shows I tend to buy the discs for most, but not all, seasons. There are some long-running shows I like the whole way through and thus have in their entirety on disc, though: Cagney & Lacey (I have the limited edition with absolutely everything) Roseanne Seinfeld Absolutely Fabulous I'll probably wind up with Major Crimes in its entirety, too, even though I have very mixed emotions about season six. We'll see how I feel by the time it comes out. I'll buy the Golden Girls boxed set one of these years when I stumble across it on a great sale (like I did with Seinfeld and Roseanne), but with it in syndication I'm easily getting my fix without it. 1 Link to comment
ratgirlagogo January 22, 2018 Share January 22, 2018 (edited) Most of what we've bought have been things that at the time we couldn't watch on TV. We were given box sets of Freaks and Geeks, the Sopranos, Upstairs Downstairs and My So-called Life. They're nice to have but we wouldn't have bought them. So off the top of my head: The Avengers (Cathy Gale through Emma Peel seasons only) Honey West Sheena, Queen of the Jungle (Irish McCalla version) Have Gun, Will Travel Most Extreme Elimination Challenge Get Smart Night Gallery Thriller (Boris Karloff show) Rocky and Bullwinkle Fractured Flickers One Step Beyond There are (sadly) more but I don't feel like digging around in the massive wall(s) of VHS tapes and DVDs right now.:) Edited January 22, 2018 by ratgirlagogo 1 Link to comment

Thrifty January 30, 2018 Share January 30, 2018 (edited) A whole lot. Collecting them is a hobby of mine since around 2002 when I bought the first 3 seasons of The Simpsons on DVD. Recently, I bought a region free DVD player so I could collect Malcolm in the Middle. The first season was released in the U.S. but the other 6 never were. They were released in the U.K. though. I have sold or given away some that I don't want any more, like Breaking Bad, Family Guy, and Portlandia. I generally don't buy any "Complete Series" set, because those always come in bizarre packaging. Here is what I can remember without looking at my shelves: The Simpsons (Seasons 1-18 and 20, which is all that is available from the show's 28 completed seasons) King of the Hill, all 13 seasons Futurama, all seasons plus the 4 movies The Office, all seasons My Name is Earl, all seasons 30 Rock, all seasons Community, all seasons Andy Richter Controls the Universe Better Off Ted, both seasons Arrested Development, all 4 seasons Jericho, both seasons 24, all the Jack Bauer seasons, but not that crappy spinoff. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, all seasons Mr Show, all seasons Kids in the Hall, all seasons Quantum Leap, all seasons Monk, all 8 seasons* Dilbert the animated series The Critic Mission Hill Home Movies, all 4 seasons Robot Chicken, 7 seasons plus some specials Frisky Dingo, both seasons Aquateen Hunger Force. I forget how many of these I have but it's all the ones they released on DVD Seinfeld, all 9 seasons Curb Your Enthusiasm, the first 8 seasons. Season 9 is pretty new so I'm not sure if it's on DVD yet. Veep, all 6 seasons Mystery Science Theater 3000, all 39 volumes plus all the Rhino DVDs. This comprises all but 11 episodes. Those last 11 episodes could not be released on DVD due to copyright issues, but I downloaded them from Digital Archive Project, made my own menus, and burned on to DVDs packed into slimline cases. Case artwork and disc labels provided by Josh Way. Malcolm in the Middle, seasons 1 and 2. Just started collecting those with the purchase of that region free DVD player I mentioned. It will take a while because I don't want to spend too much too fast, and it takes a long time for them to get here from the U.K. I feel like there are probably a few more, but I can't picture them right now. *The Monk DVDs follow an alternating color palette, white text on red background for odd seasons, then red text on white background for the even ones, and this alternates. On the spine of each box, MONK is printed in vertical letters with a picture of him at the bottom. Except in the German releases, where they do this for the first 7 seasons, then have the picture on TOP. For a show about an obsessive compulsive detective, they decided to pull the ultimate OCD troll. Edited January 30, 2018 by Thrifty Link to comment

Calvada February 2, 2018 Share February 2, 2018 The Dick Van Dyke Show The Bob Newhart Show Barney Miller Frasier Castle The West Wing Sports Night WKRP Call the Midwife The first three are my very favorite shows of all time. My DVD purchasing has lessened over the years, with more things available via Netflix. And I find I'm much more likely to re-watch a sitcom rather than a drama series. I bought the entire series of Frasier a few years ago when going through a lengthy medical issue; it really helped me get through a very difficult time. I received the first 2 seasons of Castle as a gift at that time, and subsequent seasons as birthday presents for a few years. I loved The West Wing and couldn't resist a Black Friday sale several years ago when I got the entire series for $45. Avoid those sales if you don't want to add to your collection. You're full of turkey, dressing, sweet potatoes, pie, and several glasses of wine, and then you go online and think, "the complete Hart to Hart for only $39 - I must have it!" 1 Link to comment
