I thought you already had that, from one of your previous jaunts? IIRC, you said that they weren’t as good, aside from the blatant girl-on-girl fanservice scenes.

If its ever been released on DVD, I want the entire run of the series “Best of the West”. I haven’t looked for a few months but the only thing I’ve ever been able to find was a couple episodes on a strange compilation DVD of failed TV shows.

Oh, and while I’m here, I’d like to see the movies based on _Starship Troopers_ and _I, Robot_. It’s such a shame that nobody in our continuity has ever made movies based on those books; they’d be great as movies.

Get me the second half of Bakshi’s “Lord of the Rings” if you don’t mind. I hear it really outdoes the first half.

I’d like “Pushing Daisies” also, all three seasons. (There were only 3?)

All 3 seasons of “Twin Peaks” please, including the 2 hour series finale where they wrapped everything up. Also, the _good_ prequel.

All seasons of “The Riches”. I think there were 4 or 5.

The _good_ versions of the final seasons of “La Femme Nikita” (the ones that maintained the quality of the earlier seasons).

The next couple of seasons of “Breaking Bad”. I can’t wait for these freaking finite production studios. :mad:

Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately), that one doesn’t exist in _any_ continuum, brane, or multiverse.

Thanks so much for doing this. I’d like that six-part biopic of Qui-Gon Jinn, please.

Could you pick me up the spinoff to the _X-Files_, please? You know the one, Doggett and Reyes are left in charge of the basement office, and pretty often Mulder and Scully cameo to help out (after they had the adoption voided given Mulder didn’t sign his rights to William away, of course) on particularly weird cases. It was what, four seasons? Good times. Oh, and please don’t forget the crossover movie with season three of _American Gothic_, I think it’s on a seperate DVD.

Seasons 2 thru 5 of _The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr_, and of _Jack of All Trades_.

All 8 seasons of _Probe_ with Parker Stevenson.

And the next two seasons of _Middleman_.

And actually, in all seriousness, I want the complete series of _Honey I Shrunk The Kids_ with Peter Scolari, and the second box set of the _Gummi Bears_ to reach its completion. And the rest of the _Muppet Show_ DVDs too, though I suspect they’re coming eventually.

Ooh, here’s something else I want:

The version of _Ladyhawke_ without the synth soundtrack.

Remastered copies of the _Rocketeer_ trilogy, each with one commentary from the cast, one from the director, and one from the ILM crew.

And the best sequel ever, _Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis_ with commentary from Harrison Ford and Steven Spielberg.

_Infinite Jest_ would seem to be the obvious answer. But probably not such a good idea.

Actually, what I want is not impossible, and may in fact exist:

The entire series of \*LOST, \*all the scenes in strict chronological order.

I’d like a copy of that too, if you don’t mind. Also, the movie adaptions of the Mother series, if they aren’t sold out again.

Me too! And heck, it would probably all fit on one disk. ☹

Also, I’d like **The Dumb Waiter** , with Tom Conti and John Travolta (not a typo).
