I’ve never been a big believer in amassing movie libraries. Back when you first could with VHS I quickly discovered that, if anything was possible nothing was necessary. IOW I found that once I owned it I never, _ **ever** _ wanted to put a tape in and watch it. But if a movie that I owned would come on HBO I’d sit there and watch it then! I think it’s just because it makes it a more precious, desirable resource if you have no control over it as opposed to owning & having total control of it. Only wanting what you can’t have and vice versa…

But I do have a couple (most of which I’ve never played):  
[ul]  
[li]\*\*Daria \*\*_(because it too so damn long to be released and I signed so many online petitions to get it released I felt obligated!)_[/li][li] **Battlestar Galactica** \*(the new one)[/li][li]\ ***Arrested Development** _(two seasons anyway)_[/li][li] **Fawlty Towers** _(Greastest. Sitcom. Ever.)_[/li][li]\*\*Connections \*\*_(great PBS miniseries hosted by James Burke)_[/li][li]\*\*Warship \*\*_(another great PBS documentary miniseries)_[/li][/ul]

Those are about it. Plus the various individual movies that I also never watch. 😃

I never buy TV series, as I rarely have the desire to rewatch something of that length.

But, I think I’ll have to make an exception for **Breaking Bad,** as soon as the last season fully airs.

Been thinking of purchasing **Cosmos,** too.
