Whats the longest series you've owned and watched all the way through?
For me its Sherock Holmes
Jeremy Brett's series
The Complete Sherlock Holmes
41 episodes and I have one disc, with 3 left.
It's taken nearly two years...but it's been superb througout, with weak episodes, bad image quality and genius moments :)

Whats the longest series you've watched?
re: Whats the longest series you've owned and watched all the way through?
Seen a lot on TV but actually owned I'd say it would have to be Sharpe. Was given the box set (prior to the newest releases) and although there are only 14 episodes in that set, they are all an hour and a forty minutes long.

Band of brothers... though I made an epic fail and din't notice the blue rays I'd been given were double sided.....so I only watched the odd numbered episodes ;) It took me a while to realise why there was such massive plot gaps.
Re: Whats the longest series you've owned and watched all the way through?
Given the 'all the way through' descriptor it's probably BSG. But longest still going is big bang theory.
Re: Whats the longest series you've owned and watched all the way through?
Buffy, 7 series, close on 150 episodes. Don't think Big Bang has exceeded that yet (and I haven't watched the latest series anyway).
Currently working through Friends though - all 10 series - which will trump that when I've finished. Unless we're counting Angel as being part of Buffy, since they're same continuity and have cross-overs.... ;)

Re: Whats the longest series you've owned and watched all the way through?
Star Trek, Buffy, Sex and the City, Charmed... I dunno.
We have a fair few US series, which always seem to be about 7 seasons of 24 episoides.
Re: Whats the longest series you've owned and watched all the way through?
Battlestar Galactica is pretty long.
I own and have watched all the Stargate series (Universe I don't own but have watched) so I guess that totals 354 episodes (SG1/SGA/SGU) + 3 films.
Re: Whats the longest series you've owned and watched all the way through?
The West Wing - some of the best TV.
Re: Whats the longest series you've owned and watched all the way through?
Original Stargate? Currently slowly making my way through SG: Atlantis on Netflix but the going is slow due to becoming a dad. Don't think I'll ever have the time to sit and watch half a series at a time like I use to... (unless I'm off sick from work maybe and the family is out!).
Re: Whats the longest series you've owned and watched all the way through?
24 all seasons
West wing all seasons
I also own the complete World at War box set, many many episodes of historial fascination. :) Watched in when I was younger, at some point I'll revisit it all.
ps assume you don't mean in one sitting.... That would be madness!
Re: Whats the longest series you've owned and watched all the way through?
The "you've owned" caveat makes this a little easier seeing as by and large I don't buy TV series DVDs, primarily because most of the ones I would watch again are still on a channel somewhere.
That said I still have 2 answers :rolleyes:
Most number of episodes - Dungeons & Dragons
Longest running time - The Water Margin
Would have been Breaking Bad but haven't got round to picking up season 4 yet...
Re: Whats the longest series you've owned and watched all the way through?
Star Trek, True Blood, Babylon 5 (including movies!), CSI!
Re: Whats the longest series you've owned and watched all the way through?
I guess the longest would be possibly 24, or maybe Friends or Fraiser? Plenty of other series, but they from memory seemed to be the longest.
Re: Whats the longest series you've owned and watched all the way through?
south park - up to series 15.
star trek - original, next gen, voyager, DS9, enterprise, animated, all the films, watched the lot, most at least twice
stargate - atlantis, SG1, universe,
random US series - Spartacus, breaking bad, sopranos,
me and my sister own the above.
not watched yet - 24 all the series, lost, benny hill, plus whatever my dads got cheap from ebay/amazon
uncles got nearly a thousand DVDs, dads got a fair few hundred too. they're both retired and enjoying their hard earned money so why not? theres many many more I cant be bothered listing.
helps not having any social life because I cant be bothered, happy by myself.
Re: Whats the longest series you've owned and watched all the way through?
I have every season of 24 but I've not made it past series three yet.... See this is easy for me. I used to work nights so I have every episode of Friends, Frasier, The Shield, The X Files, Soprano's, Teachers... You name it! Favourite one though, for a long time? Blackadder :D
