Leaving aside short series like _BlackAdder_ and _Police Squad!_, I’ve seen every episode of: _Star Trek_ (the original series) _Wiseguy_ (including the last two episodes that were only shown in syndication) _Monty Python’s Flying Circus_ (in fact, I went though the complete DVD set and watched them in order) _Survivor_ (series 2-6, didn’t see the first year) And there are probably several other shows I’ve seen every episode of in their syndication runs; _MASH_, _The Odd Couple_, _Mary Tyler Moore_, _Barney Miller_, etc. ---

> [@](#): > > _Originally posted by Little Nemo \* > i]Monty Python’s Flying Circus (in fact, I went though the complete DVD set and watched them in order)_ I did that. Almost non-stop over a period of two days. Oh yes, and a couple others I forgot: _Blackadder_ (all four versions) _Inspector Gadget_ and probably every episode of _M_A_S_H\* shown in syndication bar the final one. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Little Nemo \* > **Leaving aside short series like _BlackAdder_** It’s not that short. There were 24 to 26 episodes, depending on how you count. _Police Squad Black Adder Bottom Fawlty Towers_ I’ve probably seen every episode of _Star Trek_ and a bunch of other series, but I’m not sure. I’m currently working on _Xena_ and _Twin Peaks_. ---

_Roseanne_ and _Grace Under Fire_ are the only ones I’m sure of. Not that I particularly like them or anything, but they were in constant rerun rotation at 5am and I work nights. (It’s weird that Grace had 4 kids, but they were played by 7 different actors.) I thought I’d seen all the _SNL_s, but every once in a while I see one late at night that I’d forgotten or was unaware of. When I was a nightclub comic in the late 80s/early 90s, I just wasn’t around a TV set much on Saturday nights. I still have yet to see the eps with Jodie Foster, Ray Sharkey and Blythe Danner, for example, and I don’t think I’ve seen the horrifying ep with Stephen Segall from start to finish. _Star Trek_ TOS, despite being in constant reruns somewhere at all times, still has a couple of eps I haven’t seen yet (like the Harry Mudd stories or the one where Spock gets it on with Mariette Hartley). It’s my own damn fault, I guess. Until a couple of years ago (I’m 42), I thought that Nurse Chapel and Yeoman Janice Rand were the same person. It’s also only recently that I saw “The Corbodite Maneuver” and “Return of the Galileo 7” (I’m sure I got both those titles wrong; obviously, it’s not a priority with me) which answered the question that always nagged me as a kid: “Why does Spock work for Kirk and not the other wqay around?” ---

None really. However, I tried to watch all the episodes of I’ll Fly Away. ---
