So what are people planning to do once the DVD sets arrive? Are you watching them straight through or stringing them out and watching one a day or one a week?

Haven't decided yet.

Want to watch them all IMMEDIATELY upon receipt, but may decide to stretch out the new eps to once a week.

But, considering my impatient nature, I'm sure I'll end up watching everything the day they arrive!

First day, i'll probably sit through all of the special features, spend fifteen minutes searching for the Easter Egg, and watch the three unaired eps. After that, probably one a day or one every couple of days.

Probably a few a day around sleep and life, then commentaries and extras, then start over at one a week or so and continue until the movie.

Then back to the dvd's while waiting to buy the movie, then throw it into the line up while waiting for season 2 on TV with whatever channel is smart enough to bring it back.

One a day before bedtime.

Except if there are any "cliffhangers" ore "loose ends" between episodes, which i cannot stand to wait for.

Are there any?

I would love to do it 30 hours straight, but I have school. Gorram. Which means I'll have to span it over a few days.

First day: special features.

After that: one or two episodes a day in order until there ain't no more. :)

First all the special features, then one episode per day untill I run out.

Then I'll start on the 22 episodes of FarScape Season 1

Just bought six speaker surround sound and 5 disk DVD player. So I don't even have to get off the couch to swap out DVDs. 30 hours of sheer bliss!

My computer has the Creative Labs 4-speaker surround +subwoofer and a nice 19" monitor. With the wireless keyboard and mouse I'll be able to watch the series from the comfort of my bed.

I'll probably watch the entire series every day for a week.

most likely, I'd watch it all in one day on one of my days off. I probably wouldnt even change out of my jammies either.

I have threatened my partner with a marathon but we will probably stretch out the pleasure as long as possible.

Something tells me I'll watch the three unaired episodes within two weeks after getting the set. Afterward, maybe one episode a week. I never want to risk growing tired of them, and I have plenty of other things to watch.
