Many of these shows become available on DVD after a season, and they can be available to rent or borrow at your library. But, when you really want to watch the episodes from beginning to end, with little interruption, you just have to buy them - and that's expensive! Thank goodness for TIVO and other digital recorders.

It's kind of funny to see episodes on network television a couple of years after they aired on cable. Atlantis is shaping up to be pretty good as well, and I am continually impressed with how much real history they managed to tie up in the story line. We haven't had the kids watch them all but they've seen parts of some episodes. Perhaps we'll start that sometime. We watch a great deal of the shows Denise listed. One popular one is the Smash Lab on Discovery. Can't figure out why they air it at ten o'clock at night though. StormChasers floored me. I couldn't believe they were watching a show about the weather with such interest. But hey, I'm not complaining! HUGE SG-1 fan here. :) Hubby and I watched the entire series from start to finish.

We have loved that show for years. We lost track of the show when it went to cable, then discovered it on dvd at Netflix. I haven't dared watch Stargate Atlantis ... do I really need another show to while away more hours of my time?! I loved the premise of Stargate from the very first movie. It has taught us all an immense amount about cultures, history, mythology, leading us to investigate those topics outside of the show. Enjoy! Ah, another fellow Stargate-aholic!
