So, not to spoil the upmanship, but Shopko has FF for $20 dvd. I will be going and getting it, again, for the 5th time, next week. They also had Get Smart seasons 1 and 2.

Dunno if your local Sam's Clubs would still have it in stock, but around a month or so ago I saw Firefly and Space: Above and Beyond for $18.88 each

Also, to elaborate .... Wal-Mart and Target brick and mortar stores are great places to get TV Season sets for $14.95 to $20 (including two seasons (or half seasons in some cases) of stuff shrinkwrapped together and costing $20)

And to stay on topic, I lent my DVD set of Firefly out twice with no problems and even bought two copies: one which i sold to somewone and the other I donated to a library (which I checked on the other day and it seems someone has not returned it since its due date in August)

Ummm, I believe that was Richard Boone, the man responsible for CBS' love affair with Hawai'i!

Quote:

After cancellation of his weekly show, Boone and his family moved to Honolulu, Hawaii. While living on Oahu, Boone helped persuade Leonard Freeman to film Hawaii Five-O exclusively in Hawaii. Prior to that, Freeman had planned to do "establishing" location shots in Hawaii, but most production would be done in Southern California. Boone and others convinced Freeman that the islands could offer all necessary support for a major TV series and would provide an authenticity otherwise unobtainable. Freeman, impressed by Boone's love of Hawaii, offered him the role of Steve McGarrett. Boone turned it down, and the role went to Jack Lord, who shared Boone's enthusiasm, which Freeman considered vital.

'Cause after Hawaii Five-O was Magnum, P.I.

You youngsters. Our Miss Brooks, I Married Joan, Hopalong Cassidy, and Jack Benny, were the shows I cut my teeth on. And of course December Bride with Harry Morgan who we all remember in Dragnet, "Just the facts mame" and Colonel Potter in M.A.S.H.

I've lent mine out too. Thank-fully I got disc one back and my co-worker is on disc two now.

I'll echo your "OH MY GOD WHAT HAVE I DONE!" statement only, my daughter is verging on being a *gasp* Buffy fan!

GAH! I have to go wash my mouth out now. Blech!

Thank-fully she's getting away from the sparkly vampire craze. (Having a daddy writing a vampirish book helps) and she's started with Angel... that's a good sign right??

Sorry I was only 12 in 79 BUT... Space 1999, Battlestar Galactica, Emergency, S.W.A.T (Had to have a SWAT hat!) Geroge Reeve is the ONLY Superman, Scooby-Doo, Speed Buggy... etc...
