I am curious if anyone here is like me, in that they like to start a show 2 or 3 years after it's been on air, that way you can marathon for a day or two? If so, what was the last show you did this with? Shows with just one season that you watch back to back count (if it was ended to early as in the case I'm about to state)
Mine is The Adventures of Brisco County Jr - been watching this the past two days and love every episode. it should have gotten a grammy and extended for 4000 seasons!

Multiple shows when I was lagging behind or it had been recommended to me.
I smashed through Sons of Anarchy over 2 days, Breaking Bad in a matter of days, True Blood, Dexter....
As for shows of yesteryear, I tend to do that with Seinfeld, Buffy or Sex + The City.

Some excellent shows on both those lists. Sons is one of the shows I made an exception for and watch it every week it comes out. And Wolfman glad to see another show starring God himself Bruce Campbell (Sure they say lucy lawless is the star but we all know the truth!)

The woman and I watch this one as well, have since season 1 even. I love Lafeyette, he's easily the best character and he's not even in the novels after the first one! |

Lafeyette took a while to grow on me From the very beginning he was my favorite character, I've even been hoping there isn't one of those "complete character changes" from the Jesus shit. |

Christ, True Blood. I'd never seen any of the previous seasons, but the girlfriend forced me to watch (well, she'd watch, I'd usually fuck around on the computer and listen/half-watch) last season and I thought it was just laughably fucking awful. Maybe I needed to see all the previous stuff, and maybe it's just because I don't really do the vampire thing anyway, but I just don't see the appeal.
On the other hand though on the marathon front, I've been forcing her through random seasons of Seinfeld lately. Somehow she'd never really watched the show before meeting me because she thought it was "stupid," but I've turned her around on it. Hell, I've even got her watching Curb now too. Other than the rich and bald part, I'm pretty sure she's seeing the LD/George in me and it's making it all more relatable to her, heh.

Yes You have to see all the other seasons first so they will make sense each season relates to what happened before

True Blood doesn't have actors like Peter Falk, so it automatically sucks. ;D

Lugnut the first season of true blood will hook you and then you'll WANT to watch the rest. Besides any show with anna pacquinn nekkid sure is nice in my book!

Oh maaaaan. Quite a few shows.
Louie (the 1st season)...I finished that thing in 2 days. Absolutely loved it. Can't wait for my season 2 blu-rays to come in the mail (yes I know I could watch it online for "free" but fuck that).
Breaking Bad. Whenever I was able to purchase a season, it was usually finished in 2 days at the most. Right now I'm waiting for the official release of season 4, which from what I've been told is spectacular.
MAD MEN! I tried to take a little longer with this one...but that didn't really happen. Collectively, it took me about a week to get caught up with AMC.
