So what TV series do you own on DVD that you can't get enough of?
something that never gets old for me is 'Black Adder'. all of them
are great, but 'Goes Fourth' was my favorite of the four seasons.

Not on DVD, but I am addicted to Scrubs simply because it reflects my entire life (my problems, my thoughts etc.) and I can relate to almost everything down to the smallest detail (bar the Med School series, which sucked hard).
On DVD, mainly Blackadder and Father Ted, though there are a few more (mainly videos) in the form of:
Fawlty Towers
The Young Ones
Bottom
And other great feats of British comedic ability.

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

It was my favorite show when I was a kid,even though it gave me the creeps now and again.
I loved the fact that Kolchak wasn't a "hero",but just an everyday Joe.
The great thing (for me) is that my kids have discovered the series,so now I get to enjoy watching old episodes with them.

Live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about his religion. Respect others in their views and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life. Beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and of service to your people. When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home.

Supernatural.... Although i would never call it a guilty pleasure.
Buffy and Angel to an extent, although haven't watched them for a year :O So might have to start again in the summer (although maybe watching all 7 series of Buffy for a 4th time is a bit too much? And i didn't even watch them on TV...)

+1 to this, I find it cool that they plan on shooting more episodes 
Game of Thrones started off a bit slow, but is now a must-see for me.
I also find that the latest episodes of the Office starring Will Ferrell, has raised my attention to that series again.

With the galaxy as large as it is the odds of the average guardsmen seeing and fighting a marine or MEQ are relatively slim. Unfortunately the guardsmen in your (and anyone else who plays IG's) army are the REALLY, REALLY LUCKY ones that fight marines ALL the time... |
