Collectors of collections

Posted by The Omnipotent Mr. Tinkles on June 1, 2008 at 9:37pm in TV Shows, new and old...

Since they started putting tv shows in collections, are you collecting your favorite tv shows? Or are you just renting them.

If you are collecting.....which ones are you collecting, and which ones are you waiting to come out on dvd?

I dont have a lot of money, so I cant collect all that I want....but here are three I do have:
Wonder Woman
Secrets of Isis
Chips (all released ones anyway)

Ones I want:
Bionic Woman
Bionic Man
Charlies Angels
Alf
Knight Rider
The Sixth Sense (yes, it was a tv show)
and then theres a ton of BBC I want....
too much to list.

I like to own and then I watch old eps over the weekend or while I eat dinner. I'm renting shows that I haven't seen before to determine if I like them enough to buy. Also to see if they are worthy of repeat watching.; ▶ Reply to This

I had thought I would collect all of Buffy, but I promised myself that I would not spend the money on Season Seven until I finished watching Season Six. I bought Season Six five years ago and still haven't finished it. I don't think I'll be getting the final season.; ▶ Reply to This
