I also agree with the _WLiiA_ fans. Though I prefer the US version. ---

Judging Amy, if it’s not out on DVD yet (it wasn’t a few years ago). Only drama tv series I ever really got into. Tyne Daly is awesome. ---

> [@3\_20\_59\_or\_bust](#): > > “Unnatural History” > > It was only on for one year, but I thought it was a very smart show and enjoyable. Don’t know if it was ever popular enough to put to DVD though. I was surprised it didn’t get a second season, it seemed like the kind of show that would’ve been really popular and been a big hit. It was really hitting its stride by the end. ---

I’m waiting for _China Beach_, too. But only with the original music, which I read is the issue with getting it out on DVD. Man, I’d love to watch that series again. ---

THE GODDAMN REST OF ST. ELSEWHERE! Sorry for screaming. But geez, guys—season one was released years ago and I’m still sitting here twiddling my thumbs waiting for the rest of it. ---

“Days and Nights of Molly Dodd” starring Blair Brown. Enchanting, haunting dramedy, set in a New York City that is no more, Molly Dodd is a single woman working ‘odd jobs’. I have a few precious episodes on VHS tape. ---

> [@Lancia](#): > > My favorite TV series in all of history and probably the entire future is _Northern Exposure_. I would pay seriously big bucks to have the complete, as-aired version of that series on DVD, not the ersatz one that’s out now. Similarily, I wish they’d release **Young Indiana Jones** as it was aired. IIRC, the only version available now is episodes from the original series re-edited into several movie length films. Lucas strikes again. ---

> [@koeeoaddi](#): > > _That Was the Week That Was_ Excellent choice. The American or the English version? I’m not sure how much of it still exists, though. I have a CD of some highlights, edited so as to sound like two episodes. I looked for it at the Museum of Television and Radio (as it then was) once and they only had a few episodes. ---

“the secret diary of desmond pfeiffer” with the unaired episodes of course. “homeboys in outer space” (yes i know i have terrible taste) and “night stand with dick deitrich” Best fake talk show ever. ---
