Man, I didn't realize that I'd picked up so many TV shows..

I've got:

Alias seasons 1 & 2
Angel seasons 1 & 2 (season 3 will be out in February)
Aqua Teen Hunger Force seasons 1 & 2
Band of Brothers
Buffy seasons 1 through 5 (season 6 will be out in July)
Futurama seasons 1 & 2 (season 3 in March)
Mr. Show seasons 1 through 3
The Shield seasons 1 & 2
The Simpsons seasons 1 through 3
Star Trek: NG seasons 1 through 4
24 seasons 1 & 2 (still need to watch season 2)

Plus tons of cartoons, Batman:TAS, Justice League, Powerpuff Girls, Challenge of the Superfriends, Looney Tunes Golden Collection, anime that's made it to TV, like Lupin the 3rd and Cowboy Bebop... Man, I've got a ton of stuff and I really don't know when I'll have the time to get around to watching it...

I did watch Alias season 2 just a couple weeks ago--damn, what a cool show!

Some shows really deserve to be seen a full season at a time. I just could not stop watching Alias, and I've only seen 24 and Band of Brothers on disc. Fantastic stuff.

Late season two's when I started working... Blind Faith, The Price, and The Lost Mariner were the season 2 episodes I worked on.

Once it gets into Season 3, the episode names all start to blur... I'd need to watch the individual fights to remember if I was in them :) One Against An Army and Fins, Femmes, and Gems I remember clearly, though.
What the...?

You WORKED on Xena? You were part of the greatest television show EVAH created? Holy crap, dude.

*carefully deflates rapidly-expanding fanboy hysteria*

Okay, I need details. Sounds like you're a stuntie. Which is awesome because my wife and I direct short action pics and if we had our way, everyone in our films would be a stuntie. Actors? Who needs 'em? :D

Okay, so, spill. Which fights? Which guy are you? On the right? On the left? First one down? Last one up? Because I'll tell you right now, we have our favourites among the Xena stunties.
 

I've got (and recommend) the following:

Firefly
Dark Angel (both seasons)
The Avengers (the seasons with Mrs. Peel)
The Prisoner (I never realized they were originally shown out of order!)
Family Guy (first two seasons only - so far!)
Monty Python's Flying Circus (complete TV show set, no movies)

I think my next TV show DVD set purchase will likely be The New Avengers, with Steed, Purdey, and Gambit.

What I got:
Simpsons, seasons 1-3 (we love the individual commentaries on each episode)
Homicide, seasons 1-2 (my wife's actually, but I like it too)
Farscape, season 1
Dr. Who, Robots of Death and Spearhead from Space

What I want:
rest of the Simpsons, Homicide, & Farscape
Dr. Who, numerous episodes (but not all of them)
Buffy, all seasons
Angel, all seasons
Firefly
Family Guy, all seasons
X-Files, Seasons 1-6 (just can stand the later seasons)
Futurama, all seasons
Star Trek:DS9, all seasons
Coupling (good British version, not crappy American remake), all seasons
Bab 5, all seasons (for completeness sake, but I'm not a big fan of most of season 5)

One of the neat things to me about the DVD sets is that when you watch the shows in order over a short period of time, you notice some continuity elements that you might not otherwise notice if you watched them one per week. I particularly noticed this on Homicide and when we rented the first Coupling DVD.
 

Family Guy
King of the Hill
Simpsons
Stargate: SG1
Buffy
Angel
Firefly

Objectivly, Star Trek: TNG, but I already own the entire series on VHS (Went in for the Columbia House series :) )
 

My faves are Buffy and Firefly.

I have B5 season one waiting on a shelf. I'll get seasons 1-4 of Farscape when I see a decent ebay price. My next purchase will be Angel. But the one I am looking most forward to is Newsradio. :D
 

Well, I collect the DS9 series.

My bro-in-law got The Avengers, The Prisoner, and Danger Man/Secret Agent Man, but allows me to watch them ;)

And I am desperately wating for Northern Exposure!
