I only have Casino Royale so that's not even a 100-meter-run. ;)

With the "Sarah Connor Chronicles" marathon coming to an end, we should decide on another marathon.
My suggestions:
- Dead Like Me: In preparation for the upcoming direct-to-DVD movie
- Friends, though this one would take about 40 weeks going one disc per week
- Wonderfalls, nice short one
- Sports Night: With it re-released last September now everyone has a chance to buy this great series
- Red Dwarf. Heard new episodes are finally coming out this May.

I've only watched Red Dwarf in its entirety recently so I wouldn't want to join that so soon, but I will say...  :yahoo:. I read about the new episodes the other day.  :thundergod:

Anyway, back to now... what about Richie's Oscar run?

For me it is independend of an eventual TV marathon. Also I only can or want to watch a handful of the movies which qualify for this marathon.

I don't have any of those series so I can't participate in any of those.

I did end up ordering the first season of Dexter last night...so I may watch that one soon.

Anybody interested in doing another community TV series marathon, where we watch one disc per week? Like we did with "Spaced", "Sarah Connor Chronicles" and "Big Bang Theory".
Any suggestions?

Here a few suggestions of mine:
- Sports Night
- Freaks and Geeks
- Due South (though I am probably the only one here who owns it)
- Highlander: The Series
- My So-Called Life
- The Office UK
- Red Dwarf
- Star Trek TNG
- Star Trek Voyager
- Stromberg
- Birds of Prey

If I have it I'm in. Or pick something and give me a few days to get it.

And no Tom, you're not the only one with Due South. Great show.

As I am currently watching and enjoying the classic Twilight Zone episodes, I throw another idea into the mix: The short-lived 2003 Twilight Zone series I have been wanting to rewatch.
It's available at Amazon.com marketplace, if you are interested buying it.

I have just seen, that the complete series is now available for a meager 20 bucks for all 68 45-minute episodes!!!! This should make it interesting for a blind buy for all of you (if you do not know it already). Due South was one of the first TV series I have bought when a TV season was still quite pricey. I have paid over $300 Canadian for the complete series  :voodoo:
