list to keep in mind:

[timepiececlock]

TV series I want to purchase in total on DVD when I have the spare funds:

Farscape
The X Files
Highlander: the Series
Angel
Buffy The Vampire Slayer (already have most on VHS, so it can wait)
Alias
Firefly (if it comes out)
The West Wing
24
Gargoyles (if it comes out)


hmm.... am I leaving anything out? I'll constantly be buying anime as well, but this is all I can think of for TV... I'm not really interested enough to spend money on The Sopranos or Stargate SG1 or any of the Star Trek series, and when I think about it there's not a lot of TV that I actually watch.

Ah, well, most of what I've sene of HL were the later seasons. It's why I want to eventually purchase the whole thing. I ahve a great need to see/watch/read everything in chronological order. I've had to overcome that in watching Buffy reruns to catch up.

My problem with the HL movies was the only decent ones were #1 and #3. THe secodn one I stopped watching after less than 15 minutes, and the fourth one was only worth watching for the naked duncan chest and the 5-something minutes that Methos was on screen. The plot was rather blah, and I really disliked the female lead.

(since we find out he was proto-summerian, and summerian swords? Well, taking a head off with one of them would have been an achievement!)

Hadn't thought about it, but you're probably right. Since he couldn't really die of disease or starvation, and someone would have a hard time cutting of his head, he really only had to worry about random, surprise decapitation from a flying rock or something like that.

THERE IS NO HIGHLANDER 2 OR 3 OR 4!

Ok sorry. I just wiped those films from my mind. I think they should have left it alone after the first. So i chose to forget about the others, kind of just blanked (though you right 3 is better than 2, most films actually are better than highlander 2!)

It's funny, that's wha the movie-making HL people seemed to do when they made the third film. They jsut completely ignored the second one, and pretended it had never been made.

I thought the third one was pretty good; Mario Van Peebles was a creepy disgusting villain, and the fights were very good, and the plot was at least interesting enough to keep my attention for the whole thing. I got supremely bored in the fourth film. It ould have helped if it had had more Joe or Methos; as they're strongly developed supporting characters in teh series. But they weren't used the way they could have been in the film, which was a mistake, as the only people who went to watch the film were probably the fans who had also seen the series.
