We're on our second viewing of the TV series Wonderfalls. I think that's the first of our collection that we're watching for the second time.

I definitely could watch The X Files every few years. How many times do you think you'll watch your TV seasons on DVD?

As long as enough time has passed since I last watched the series, I don't mind holding occasionaly "marathons" with friends who also like the show, or who never saw it and who I'd think would like it. I think I've watched "Scrubs" through about four or five times.

I love marathon times with certain TV series. The Office is one that I never seem to tire of. I've rewatched it several times and will probably always love the show!

I'm weird...I rarely go back and watch dramas, but comedies, when they're on TV, I'll watch over and over. Give me a 27th viewing of some episode of The Office, or Seinfeld and I'm in.

I watch DVDs of TV shows all the time. TV is one of my main hobbies and I enjoy going back and watching shows. In recent years, my favorite TV show was Stargate SG-1 and I have played those DVDs many, many times since getting them.

Same, omitting Seinfeld unless its all about Cosmo (Michael Richards is just a crazy fool). I tend to do the same with movies, I do not like repeats unless its a classic/killer type movie that you can never get tired from. TV shows/series its a little harder to get into for me.

We'll usually watch them again after a couple of years. Scrubs is something we watch all the time, if it comes on tv we watch it. If there's nothing on tv, we'll put a disk in. We've also got the whole series of Ali McBeal, and the first 3 seasons of Dexter. We're going to watch Season 1 of Dexter again when rerun season starts and there's nothing to watch. The first time we saw it was on CBS (they only showed season one). After that, we got Showtime and realized everything we missed.

Putting shows on DVD is just heavenly for me. Like I said above, I'm always watching old TV series on DVD. I know folks who have watched their copies of classic TV series so much they are buying replacement sets even. Most of classic TV is better than the new stuff.

I seldom do this with TV series because there are many movies that I haven't watch yet. I watch old movies that I haven't seen that is why I don't have much time to have second viewing on TV shows. The only TV shows that I would watch over and over again are the AFV and the JFL shows.

My favorite series is Friends. I have watched it several times, and plan to watch it again. I also watch Dark Angel and the OC more than three times.

I'm the queen of the DVR in my house. I am addicted to Crossing Jordan and wish that show didn't go off the air. I would have to say that I will also watch reruns of the Brady Bunch when it's on too but I don't go out and buy DVD's for a show.

I've never really kept track on how often I've watched a particular show. In my house, The Cosby Show dvd collection is a big hit so someone always has it on the tv.

I'm not one to watch the same series over and over. Then again I'm not one that watches a movie over and over. I do have to admit that I have watched Lost over because I didn't catch everything the first time.

As long as enough time has passed (at least several months) I can usually watch certain programs several times. I tend to prefer one season over another though.

We just started watching the first season of The Big Bang Theory last night, and I think it was great from the pilot episode. We've also watched a few seasons of 24 on DVD.

I think Scrubs would be a good choice too.

Currently recording (HD off Comcast) and watching:

Enterprise. All seasons and most episodes. Some I will skip over.

Stargate Atlantis. The only one of the Atlantis series I've watched and I'm on multiple times for some episodes. The latest seasons I will have to rent because I missed those during the year I didn't have HD.

Selected episodes of StarTrek Next Generation and a few of the original series (not HD).

I've been seeing commercials for Caprica, looks like the prequel for Battle Star Galactica, I'll have to check that one out. I DID NOT like the remake of BSG.

I watch everything recorded. If it is something I run across, I'll record it and watch it later. Can't stand commercials

This is something I obsess about because of the money involved - how much a box set is worth *if* I'll only watch it once.

I tend to buy used and occasionally will sell something as well, but usually regret it - I bought the BD edition of "The Prisoner," watched all but two of the middle episodes and sold it in the interest of decluttering. Do I think about those two episodes? Yep.

We run Next Gen after our late news at the tv station where I work, and I am continually struck by how *cheesy* it looks, like it was shot in a bunch of small beige rooms with a bit of dressing. I don't remember it being that way when it first aired (:.

Ditto for season 1 of "24."

OTOH, I've watched the third season of "Enterprise" several times and it continues to look ok - I wonder if the dividing line is when everyone moved from old fashioned animation to CGI.
