TV on DVD
Is it me or are Kuwaitis not buying or borrowing movies on DVD anymore? It seems we're not satisfied with anything less than a marathon of the latest TV hits on DVD.. Some people download them - illegally - off the Internet, and others will buy just about any damn TV show that's out there, good or bad.. (you know who you are!)
I personally think one of the reasons is the vast improvement in the quality of TV programming from America today. Yes, many of us are guilty of spending days watching back-to-back episodes of 24, Friends, The Sopranos, Alias, Nip/Tuck, Sex and the City, The West Wing, and so much more... I even insisted on buying the first "Seinfeld" box set the day it was released, even though I've seen them in reruns countless times. Now I'm waiting for "Desperate Housewives" to come out..
I also eagerly await DVD box sets of:
- درب الزلق
- درس خصوصي
- خرج ولم يعد
- رقية وسبيكة
- هو وهي
- ليالي الحلمية
- ثلاثية نجيب محفوظ
- لن أعيش في جلباب أبي
What else?

Was the third part of Mahfooth's triology (Al-Sukaria)ever made? I thought they stopped after Qasir el Shouq because the director (Marzooq?)died. Clues anyone?

I enjoy watching thes following with my father: The Law & Order group of series, Poirot, Sherlock Holmes (Jeremy Brett) and Seinfeld (although I have the entire show on tape). I usually borrow the CSI franchise, Monk, 24 and the rest. For nostalgia, I also have ?I Love Lucy?, ?Columbo? plus many others I don?t remember.
The Kuwaiti shows and plays, I have those and the plays on tape, along with some old 3eed el-Watani concerts with Shadi el_Khaleej and Sana?a el-7?rraz, as I mentioned before I intend to digitize them and create my own DVD sets, once I have the time.

I like khalty igmasha
The other old stuff with hayat ilfahad and/or soad abdulla were good like rqaya owsebeecha, ma7thootha oo mabrooka and so on.. but i have to say.. khalty igmasha was my fave.
And i don't think anyone would be interested in my taste of english ones... but here goes:
- Friends
- Seinfield
- Mad about You
- Fresh Prince of Bell Air
- Dharma and Greg
- Two guys and a girl wasn't bad
- Becker
- Dawsons Creek
- Full House (Not only do i enjoy it but it actually makes me cry... sad but true)
- Sesemi Street (I'm very upset that the cookie monsters gonna go healthy.. thats reaaaaly not right!)
-Punk'd (I'm not too sure about getting it on DVD but i guess its a must-see atleast)
- Ally Mcbeal (I was told i act like her sometimes)
And finally.. all the arabic cartoons i watched as a kid and would LOVE to see on tv again...they were much better than the crap they make kids watch these days..
- Lady Lady
- Ala7lam alzarqa ( with the blue horse kakero if anyone remembers)
- Ala7lam althahabeeya
- Ya 9a7ib althil al6aweel
- Captin Rabe7
- Lady Oscar
- Bombo, na3noo3 aldaloo3, altawamana, alsayida mil3aqa, alragheef al3ajeeb...
I dont' really remember anymore

Guilty as charged on two accounts: SATC and Will & Grace. Still a big movies fan though. I buy more of those than TV shows, so far.
I have Darb Elzalag and Dars 5e9o9i on cds, courtsey of my brother. A special kind of pleasure when spending a year away from home.

Darb il Zalag (Abeeehaaaaaaa)
Boy Meets World
Lizzie Maguire
Newly Weds
The Osbornes
The SOPRANOES
