That’s a phrase used often in our house.

Are you saying it’s on DVD? Is it the movies or was there a series?

Okay, to reiterate,

Hulu has just added the entire series of Highlander…

Honestly I used to love it. It would come on after SNL and I loved it.  
[hulu.com](http://hulu.com) that is

Wooden acting, a repeating plot.  
I saw them all. Wouldn’t miss it.

What season did Methos show up? That man was high up on my Adolescent Crush list - I’m wondering how well he holds up.

Hmm.

A bit worried that watching them back to back might be excessively repetitive, but it was a damn good show to watch once a week.

Well, I think that Highlander is the kind of show that people love in spite of it’s flaws. The acting is probably pretty bad (I watched the pilot the other day) but I still think that the guy who plays Duncan McLeod is pretty good.

Anyway, it’s got Queen as the theme music. That’s so weird, yet it’s part of the fun these days.

But yeah, it’s probably not as good as I thought it was when I was a kid. But I’ll watch a few from time to time I’m sure.

So who the hell just loves hulu? I am really digging it. Only problem is that I think they’ll probably take down seasons of shows as they go to DVD. That’s kind of lame. I wholely expect the last season of 30 Rock to disappear.
