Good box sets - any recommendations?

[PotPourri]

Hi, I'm about to have my baby and am thinking of stocking up on good box sets for the marathon feeding sessions. any recommnedations?

I have: Scrubs, Jonathan Creek, Hornblower (don't fancy that - is DHs), the godfather (don't fancy that either).

What d'you think?

Fat Friends! Tis funny...

Inbetweeners is funny - we got Series 1 & 2 on DVD for £9 from Asda.

Sopranos/The Wire/The Shield for cop/drama stuff

Band of Brothers

Agree Black Books is hilarious

One Tree Hill

Supernatural

Friends

The Inbetweeners

Nip/tuck

Gavin and Stacey

good luck with the Baby

true blood
ally mcbeal
sex and the city
gavin and stacey
greys annatomny

House, 24, Lost, Desperate Housewives, Sopranos

Nurse Jackie (out next week I think)
Lost
Desperate Housewives
Brothers and Sisters

Iklboo I love The Inbetweeners! Don't you just hide behind your hands cringing throughout!

Entourage is really good.

30Rock-tis very very funny
The wire might need a bit too much concentration-not easy with a newborn
am finding Battlestar Galactica pretty gripping at the moment

Gavin and Stacey - love baby Neil

anyone else keep reading this thread title as

'good sex books - any recommendations?'...

what is wrong with my brain!!

It's an old one, but I really enjoyed the Golden Girls. A few dud episodes, but still overall very funny.

Mind you, on maternity leave I got very into Bargain Hunt and Come Dine With Me. Damn work, getting in the way of my daytime viewing!

Another vote for West Wing. I watched all 7 in quick succession, dh bought them for me when I went on early amternity leave with the dts at 31 weeks. They were born at 35 weeks and I'd watched all 7 seasons by then

Mad Men
Damages
Seinfield
30 Rock

house md, six feet under, medium (love all of those).

and if you weren't pregnant I'd say dexter, but it might give you nightmares.

30 Rock - brilliant and very cheap on Amazon at the moment.

haven't read all the thread but thought i'd chip in with my suggestions:

If you haven't seen these:

Desperate Housewives
Ugly Betty
Gossip Girl
Gavin & Stacey
Frasier
Sex and the City
Will and Grace
Samurai Jack
Family Guy

I haven't seen but am planning at some point to have a Mad Men marathon ... I hear very good things about it.

Lucky you, enjoy your time

The Office USA, Californication, Weeds, Dexter, Sex and the City, King of Queens.

Ive recently got into box sets (only cos I wanted I got sex and the city movie, but hadnt seen it so watched all those first)

I like:
Sex and the city
Desperate Housewives
Gossip Girl

I did try to watch the L word, but got bored halfway through the pilot.
Ive also got Greys anatomy on wait at lovefilm (along with about 1000 games - for DH and films)

Im going to need something else soon so I might pinch a few suggestions from here for when Ive finished Gossip girl in a few weeks

I download everything... it's free! if you have broadband.

box sets are still so expensive. even something like the sopranos which is quite old. 60£ for s1-6

The series of State of Play is amazing - has John Simm, David Morrissey, Kelly MacDonald, James Macavoy, Marc Warren, Bill Nighy, Geraldine James etc. I've watched it about 20 times now.

CSI I could watch it all day everyday forever.
Without a trace is also a good 1
