Seeing old commercials brings back old memories; they're fun to see!

I like seeing old commercials, too. I sure wish we would have kept those old VHS's that we recorded like that. But we eventually recorded over them. One that I remember having was the Nick at Night reruns of F-Troop. Remember F-Troop, anyone?

I became a fan of the X-Files 3-4 episodes before the final one. I had the video tapes with 2 episodes on them....
I actually bought my first DVD player when the 3rd season of the X-Files came out on DVD. I hadn't know about the first two seasons or I would have bought it sooner! I also both those first 3 seasons with the DVD player and spent a week watching them all.

Oh, I also have Boston Legal, Forever Knight, Deadwood and the Sopranos entire series. Add to that several hundred other movies and you can understand why I NEEDED a home theater!

The only series we're collecting at the moment is NCIS. I have the first two and will probably soon be getting the third season. I don't watch it but my husband likes it... I'm more for individual movies when I watch anything at all but that's rare.

I loved F-Troop. I thought it was one of the funniest shows on TV. One thing about it though; if you hear the theme song for the first season's shows, the words will stick in your head for weeks.

Yes... and today now, I'm sure. "The end of the Civil War was near..." Trivia question... what was the bugler Dobb's middle name? I always thought it was so comical, it always stuck with me.

It's funny....I have 400-500 TV channels to watch in several languages......but I would prefer to watch of shows and movies and apparently I'm not alone in that!

Maybe the TV execs should get a clue!

Oooh! My daughter would soooo love that! Well, if any of those languages are German, that is. She does get to see a few programs early in the morning in German and really enjoys them. I bought her a few movies in that language, too.
