YOU MAKE A REALLY GREAT POINT, there's something really calm and soothing about something old you can curl up and watch in bed and have the next DVD right there waiting for you. I meant to ask a question about what medium people use to get into new tv too but I forgot-- because maybe it's because I'm a nerd or whatev, but I totally think watching something on DVD, downloading it off the internet, streaming it (although I HATE STREAMING), or watching reruns are all totally different experiences.

ANYWAY: you are correct, I should probably feel less weird about recommending long and wonderful things.
