A question

Adam and I love watching TV shows on DVD. We really got into "The West Wing" and had fun buying all the seasons and watching them from start to finish (and then over and over again). But it's fun to have something new.

So for Christmas he bought me season one of a new series that we had heard good things about from several people. I was so excited! How fun to have something fresh to watch! Unfortunately after giving it a try for four or five episodes we realized this wasn't the series for us.

Which brings us to the problem. We really like the idea of getting a new TV series and we'd like to exchange the series we aren't happy with, but what to get?

Do YOU have any TV series that you love?

It can be an old series that isn't on any more or a new one that's on right now. We're looking for something we can buy on DVD and enjoy (hopefully for several seasons). Any thoughts? We'd love your ideas!

  1. Glad you liked my suggestion of Psych...It actually has a character from "The West Wing". It is a comedy and it is way fun! The nice thing is that it is lighthearted and it doesn't have to take over your life, you can just enjoy!!! LOVE IT! You should go rent or buy season 1 and then go from there! Way good!

  3. love Psych, but I also LOVE Monk. It is really quite funny and they just aired the last episode ever... funny, light and clean. I also LOVE Chuck, but I know that's still on. Kris & I started it and then my family fell in love with it as well. My mom went out and got us all the 1st season for Christmas last year. And if you like intense 24 is always a good one too. Oh good luck!

  4. Sorry I don't watch much tv...not for any reason other than I just don't feel like I have enough time(say's the stay at home mom!). I do occationally watch a DVD or two. Although you just made me curious...I don't know if you were going to tell anyone what series wasn't worth your time, but I'm sort of curious so I don't waist my time!

  5. We love Heroes. (HOpe that's not the one you got for Christmas. That would be embarrassing...)

  6. Monk is pretty much the coolest show ever, and I'm so sad there are only 8 seasons for Joey and me to watch.

  7. We've been getting the Cosby Show from the library lately and absolutely loving them. It's great because they're so short that you can watch one quickly or several at a time if you like. We've also really enjoyed Foyle's War and Poirot (if you're into mystery-type shows). Good luck!

  9. I love watching shows on DVD! So much better!! I don't really have a ton of shows I love to watch though....I got into Frasier for a while - funny witty humor :) Really enjoying Parks & Rec...but my absolute favorite though (tied with Friends & The Office) is Arrested Development!! So hilarious - you have to watch them more than once to catch all the little quips. Maybe it's just for Pete & Clay and us...but boy am I forever grateful to cousin Katy for finally getting us into it! :) (Punky Brewster rocks too!!! :) :)

  10. Well, obviously LOST is the best show out there... seriously. It's got the best of everything... the beach, the jungle, happiness, sadness, laughter, intensity, surprise, humor, frustration, resolve... just keeps you on your TOES. (Seriously, I was just standing on my toes by the end of each ep.) AH! SO GOOD!!!! What series didn't you like? (You can respond to that privately ;))
