I'd have to say Oz. It started right when I bought my first house.

Does reality shows count? I've seen every damn episode of Survivor.

If not that then Lost

Cheers...I was in Jr. High when it came out. The last episode aired 2 weeks after I graduated from college. It was a mainstay during my impressionable teens and early 20's.

I remember seeing the ads for it before the first episode aired and thinking "this is going to suck", but my parents decided to watch it, so I watched it with them. After the first episode, I was hooked. Watched it beginning to end.

Although when the Simpsons ends, that will become my answer. I still record it and watch every week, even though it's not the same show it once was.




It took more of a commitment to watch a complete series 20 or so years ago. There was no DVR and they never replayed the episodes. You had two choices. Watch it live or record it with your VCR.


I can still remember having a VCR that you had to "tune" the stations in.



You could only have about 10 channels at a time.

Twin Peaks was the first that we watched without missing an episode.

Pre-VCR, it was just too difficult to watch an entire series without something preventing you from seeing at least one episode.

Todd McFarlane's Spawn when it was on HBO. Watched it and Def Comedy Jam on Friday nights.

Little House on the Prairie was probably the first series from start to finish that I watched but it was in syndication by the time I got to it in the late 80s/early 90s.
