TV Series on DVD

So Robin, did you decide what you wanted to get? LOL

Well I'm starting with Dexter, Supernatural and Veronica Mars but I think I want to check out Jericho, Stargate: Atlantis, Dr. Who, Bones and quite a few others too... Gossip Girl, One Tree Hill - I'm not sure they'll keep my attention but I have pretty diverse taste, so I'm gonna give it a go.

About the only thing I really DONT like is comedy sitcom type of stuff or shows that were on more than 10 years ago LOL. I just dont find scripted humor funny most of the time and for some reason, I can tell when shows are old.

This thread has been AWESOME!! Thank you guys sooo much for all the recommendations - I'm gonna have tons to watch over the coming months.

Yep. You have summed it up perfectly. You and I are tv soulmates, Robin <3.

If you completely fall in love with Doctor Who, don't forget to start watching Torchwood... it's the adult spin-off... it's very very saucy in the first season, toned down in the second. But it's fairly decent... it's basically a sci-fi drama with lots of bi-sexual tension. (The main character is from the 51st century living in our time, but apparently in the 51st century anything goes.)

But the new Doctor Who and Torchwood are both created by a huge Joss (Buffy, Angel, Firefly) Whedon fan, if that tells you anything. ;)
 
I know it's not at all your taste, Robin, but since lots of us are now just reminiscing about favorite shows, I'll profess my love for Gilmore Girls. I was so sad when that one ended. I need to start rewatching (for the 3rd or 4th time) soon. I love Grey's, but I haven't found any current shows that hold a candle to GG. I'm still holding out hope there will be one soon, so I can't wait for the descriptions and reviews of the new shows starting in the fall.
 
Ditto Dexter... love it!

All of the HBO shows- but especially if you're into historical/period pieces, Rome and Deadwood are GREAT, but very adult so no kiddies around. Both ended way too soon if you ask me.

Rescue Me and Nip/Tuck are also Faves. I love watching TV on DVD- we're just into season 3 of 24- fun stuff! And no waiting for next week or the next season to start.

And just in time for Pineapple Express, you could always check out Freaks and Geeks for a laugh.
