I have 60 hours of television to watch

I have 60 hours of television to watch

I have been so busy with school and other events, I have missed watching the last several weeks of my favorite tv shows. Due to these circumstances, I have been trying my best to avoided tv spoiler info like websites, tv ads and water cooler discussions on television. Unfortunately, I did found out who won survivor all-stars. The shows that I have recorded include the oc, smallville, alias, er, 24, friends (including the series finale) and many other shows... This week I finally planned on catching up.

Has anyone else been in this bad of situation?

I got about 30 hours. A lot of it is stuff from like 6 months or so ago. I figure since the season is over for most of the current shows, that leaves plenty of time to catch up this summer.

You'll probably think I'm exaggerating, but I'm well over 150 hours behind on this season alone. *sigh*

I have:

6 hours "Traffic" miniseries
1 hour The Handler
9 hours Without a Trace
9 hours Deadwood
4 hours Tru Calling
2 hours Cold Case
3 hours CSI:Miami
2 hours Angel
1 hour 24
1 hour Smallville
1 Hour CSI

Plus on another Tivo I still have an hour of Wonderfalls and The Surreal Life.

The only reason I am caught up on Enterprise is that I can watch that show while I'm doing other things. Same with Smallville,

I have about 12 CSIs sitting.

That always ends up not getting watched.

I don't have much at all, but I just got DVR back last week so I'm sure it will start to pile up.

DVDs don't count.

And TiVo is cheating. : )

I'm not behind now, but about ten years ago I was sent on a business trip FOR TWO YEARS!

I had someone tape my soap for me.
250 hours, baby!

Took me three years to get through it, while watching the new episodes as they aired.

Finished off the tapes just in time for the show to be cancelled.

dad?


long lost secret family?

I have a stack of vhs tapes of Las Vegas, C.S.I., tv movies and more sitting on top of my cable box. my 100hr. dual tuner DTIVO has around 60 or shows I still have to watch. I have been frantically trying to get everything watched before the new summer shows start. I am going to buy another dual tuner DTIVO to add more capacity very soon.

D'oh! I only watch 4 shows on the tube, so it is nearly impossible to fall behind. Hence all the dvd buying.

2 hours CSI
1 hour 24
Tonight's Simpsons
2 hour finale Tru Calling
3 or 4 hours The Shield, although I think I'll just wait until DVD at this point since I forgot to tape the last 2 anyway

I generally give up on a show if I get more than 3 episodes behind, at least until it comes on DVD.

A backlogs a backlog.
VHS is for poor people.

I'm doing pretty well: I only have a couple hours from last night yet to go. Oh, and another 45 minutes in the 165 minute Battle of the Bulge.

My Tivo is consistenly full. What sucks is coming to this page and not being able to check out any threads because you haven't watched the episode yet. I have been watching my own marathons lately. I watched the last 7 NYPD Blue's the other day. I did the Soprano's like that recently as well.

I'm two weeks behind on The Sopranos because my wife's been out of town and I didn't want to watch it without her. Other than that I'm fine.
