Since interest was low when I checked last time I am currently going through Season 2 of Dexter by myself (and loving it! :clap:).

I would be interested to join the Sarah Chronicles marathon!

Anyone else here ready to start a new TV Show marathon? I seen mentioned people wanting to do...

- Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles
- The X-Files
- Dexter
- 30 Rock

Am I missing any others that was mentioned? and should we start a poll to see which we should do next?

I am up up to either one of those... but wouldn't want to have to do any more then 1 disc per week. (Yes I know that would make X-Files a long Marathon)

I have Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles and the first two seasons of The X-Files now, so I could do either of those.

I've never seen any of Dexter or 30 Rock.

Finished Dexter tonight. Great show, still.

[spoiler=Seriously]Funny how it started out all weird (Dexter getting all messed up in his lies), then picks up some serious speed mid-season just too slow down almost to a halt in the second to last episode. The final episode wrapped up all loose ends very nicely! Cool how they left us hanging for a minute and then go out with a bang; I mean, who didn't want her dead?[/spoiler]


So, I am ready for the Terminator Chronicles whenever you are :)

I can start with Terminator Chronicles anytime.  I was actually going to ask if anyone was still going to do it. :)

I am all for it at a decent pace... maybe a disc per week.. like we did The Big Bang Theory?

So, unless Toom cannot join at that time, let's begin next week.

One episode per week should be a good enough pace, even allowing for some other watching on the side. How many episodes are there on a disc? I have the Blu-ray version and the disc layout may be different...

I'll try to remember to open up a related thread during the weekend.

On the DVD we have 3 episodes on each disc.

Cool sounds like just about everyone is ready for the Terminator series marathon. Next question would have to be is everyone ok with 1 disc (3 episodes) per week for 3 weeks? or do you want to go a little faster or slower?

I see Achim mentioned an episode per week.... I think that may be a little on the slow side... but if that is what you all want I can do that too.

Three episodes a week seems to be just right for me.

That was before....and I am not even sure why I said that now. :bag:

Three episodes per week is perfect and is what I suggested in the earlier post(s) on this page ;)

I'll open the marathon thread now...

Does anybody have "Just Shoot Me: Season 1+2"? Next month finally sees the release of Season 3 after four years of waiting. And I am thinking about rewatching the first two seasons before that.

Would anyone be interested in a collective James Bond marathon? I would say one movie per week chronologically.
