Post your 5 favorite TV DVDs here

Ones that you own, or plan to buy. Multiple seasons do not count as different DVDs. For example Sopranos 1,2,3,&4 -- is one TV DVD.

No other TV on DVD matters but this.

So far, my TV on DVD has included:

Earth Final Conflict (S3-4)
Battlestar Galactica (original and new mini)
Quantum Leap (S1-S3, to date)
Star Trek Original Series (S1 and S2)
Knight Rider (S1 and S2)
Hunter (S1)
Miami Vice (S1)
Greatest American Hero (S1)
South Park (S1)

While eventually I'd like to get Star Trek TOS S3 to complete the series, right now the only series I know I will complete is Quantum Leap. And I'll probably get all of Knight Rider - damn childhood memories.

I'd like more Trek - like TNG and DS9, especially - and am waiting for the right (read, cheapest) opportunity.

I'll probably buy Lost when it comes out. Best TV show I've ever seen.

But at the top of my MUST HAVE list when it comes to TV on DVD is the one I may never see - Earth Final Conflict Season One. I want that so bad it hurts.

Just for kicks (in order):

Family Guy
Da Ali G Show
Nip/Tuck
Penn & Teller: Bullshit!
Cops

It's not all that I own (Simpsons, South Park, Sopranos, 24, CSI, and so forth), just my 5 favorite titles. As far as what I'd like to see on DVD: Third Watch and CHiPs are tops.

1. Mr. Show with Bob and David - probably the best sketch comedy and recorded video show ever. If you haven't seen it, you shouldn't hesitate buying the first set.
2. Dead Zone - these have been fantastic releases, and I'm anxiously awaiting Season 3. They're also decently priced considering the amount of content. I bought the Pilot and Season 1 as blind buys and haven't been remotely disappointed.
3. Arrested Development - It's amazing how well-made this show is. The fifth viewing is just as entertaining as the first.
4. Wonderfalls: The Complete Series - fantastic show that should have been given a chance at a second season. Think "Joan of Arcadia" but good.
5. 24 - Great series, even if it's hard to rewatch all of the DVDs.

Honorable Mentions:
Simpsons
Futurama
Oz

Haha. What, no Chuck Palahniuk - Invisible Monsters on your TV on DVD list? And the fact that you don't have the Garden State Soundtrack on your list...it makes me want to scream.

Yup! That's a must have too. Been years and years since this was out but yet most everybody remembers it. At least us old folks.

Freaks & Geeks -- for me also. Probably the only one I enjoy rewatching.

I love Sopranos, but the rewatch didn't light my fire.

24 was a great 1st watch, but the rewatch was a disaster, as I could barely get into it.
