How many Season Sets do you own (Seen em all?)?
I read a newspaper article this week that talks about peoples loves for the season set and I realized I have SO much I still have to see. I OWN (according the Aficianado) 117 Listings. Thats not counting Shows like all my Hercules count as one, but each individual. The problem is, I find so many season sets cheap that I just buy em all. I actually buy sets more than regular DVDs now.
According to my list, I have accumulated 27 sets that I still have to see. Anyone else got this problem?

136 season sets and not even close to finishing them all. Only ones I have watched complete are Angel, Buffy and those one season shows like Freaks & Geeks and Undeclared.

I have about 15 different sets, with 2 completes (Seinfeld and Smallville). Both of those have been watched completely. Entourage as well, but only season 1 is out.
I've noticed there are more sales now on TV Shows. Which is a good thing.

I have almost all of the TV season sets that I would want to own (somewhere between 100-150). I've watched about 30 of them and am in no hurry to watch the rest, as once I'm done there will be no more TV content left that I care to watch.

I have 85-90. All watched except 3--Simpsons 7 (which I've been watching the last couple of days, so I should finish soon) and the two most recent seasons of Seinfeld (which is just a matter of getting my wife to actually sit down and watch with me).
Edit: all watched except the last 2 Seinfeld sets now.

I'm a little behind...been catching up this month though just finished Monk season 1, smallville 3, Roswell 1&2, Alias 4, murder one: season 1, nip/tuck 2 and am currently working on smallville 4, cheers 6 and Harsh Realm.
Overall, I have about 12 sets I have yet to watch (never seen), 20 sets I watched the season on TV but have yet to actually get into the dvd (apart from some extras)...so about 32 sets I haven't watched...and I own approx. 185... in the last few years, my TV on dvd purchases have heavily outweighed my dvd movie purchases...

I have about 52 of them and I'm so far behind it's not funny...but I still keep buying them waiting for a boring week or a good case of the flu so I can watch them I keep buying them because I know one day I'm going to watch them all...one day
It seems the wife & I always go for movies over TV series. Some I watch without her like Simpsons & Smallville when I can't sleep.

If the list I posted in the other thread was accurate, I count 93 season sets in my collection. I've watched them all except for disc 3 of The Mary Tyler Moore Show Season 3, which I'm starting today.
And that number doesn't count shows like Lexx and Monty Python which I bought one or two discs at time, or any Anime shows. (all watched)

Wow, I cannot believe people have THAT many TV sets.
I have a few:
Family Guy S1/S2 - Got it for $5
Son of the Beach - Still Sealed
Gilmore Girls S1/S2 - My Wife's
Sex City S1/S2 - Wife's also
My So Called Life - Wife's
Greg The Bunny
Freaks and Geeks - Gift for Wife (but I enjoy it just as much)
I think that is it....I basically rent all my TV shows I want to watch. I really don't see much replayability in TV shows. Once I watch it once, thats good enough for me.

Whew. I feel better than Im not the only one who has a ton of season sets! Actually, after officially counting my sets, I only own 87 REAL season sets. I forgoto to leave out collections like Disney Treasures, Looney Tunes, etc.
What sucks about these is that they take up alot of room. Probably too much. I think these have alot of replayability because I dont watch too much TV anymore. Heck, the only reason Im into 24 is becuase I got the first 2 season for $15 and got hooked. But during dinner or whatever, I'll pop on a TVDVD. For shows that they currently show, I just record those and watch when I workout. And thats because I cant stand commercials or sitting around for too long.
