I rarely watch tv. What do you think good tv shows come to dvd for?

Also so you can watch a whole season as fast as you want without waiting for weekly episodes to air and no commericials.
I hate that I am caught up with the office, weeds, and dexter. They are good enough now that I am playing the waiting game and it sucks.

Yeah I have read all about it. Seems pretty intense. But I would feel like a poser flying down to a country where there are shamans and just being some tourist and doing it.

what's FTA? from what i could see (a very quick google), that's a freeview box?
sky+ is like tivo i believe. it's a satelite tv receiver with a built in hard drive, so you can record, pause, rewind live tv. that's what tivo does, right?

FTA = Free To Air channels/signal..
Tivo doesnt have to be used in conjunction with a sat. receiver.. but I understand now.
FTA boxes..are well.. you get whatever is being broadcasted over the air..
some of it is encrypted..(some of it is not)

I can't believe they canceled Freaks & Geeks that show had A LOT of potential and it was finally moving into a good direction. I will say that the first few episodes probably put a lot of people off so the following wasn't big enough for the studio. Too bad.

Anyone catch Fringe? I watched the premier last night and I think it has A LOT of potential to be the new x-files. Multiple layers of agencies, sciences, sci-fi elements and some scary moments. Great fk'n title effect too.

I caught some of it.. and I really liked it so far. I think the 'dad' role was good in it.. although some crazy ideas the way they presented it made it seem believable/acceptable IMHO..
My wife was watching 90210 so I missed some of the (Fringe) episode....and didnt catch it in its entirety

On the topic of Fringe
I actually liked it, I was not a big fan of x-files however (dont hate me) but I think Fringe has a lot of potential to be great and I can't wait to see next week's episode.
Also Dexter started back up! What does everyone thing of the premier?
