While incredibly imperfect, I really liked it, similar to the way I liked the first season of Lois and Clark (which I own). Cheese be damned, I'm gonna get it!

Who's with me?

I have the pilot on VHS.

I really liked the show too. Providing the price isn't an arm and a leg... I will most likely get it.

Is $40-$45 too much?

Yeah, I'll probably get it.

I find I'm more likely to get a single-season show that I kinda liked on DVD, than a multi-season show I really like.

One season of The Flash (a show I liked) for $50. Sure. Seven seasons of Deep Space 9 (a show I loved) at $90 each? Nuh-uh.

I can't even think of starting on the Simpsons.

Actually, the first few seasons of Simpsons are selling for way cheaper now (1st season like $20 at walmart.) What is this Flash you speak of?

I give to you the Seeker of Serenity, the Valkyrie Warrior, the Gourmet Cook and the Truth Scoper.

Same here.

The Star Trek, or even Babylon 5 at $120.00 Can. per season is WAY too much for a show I thought was ok. That what they are selling for here. Now if I REALLY liked them... who am i kidding, that's still too much.

I liked Barry's lab assistant. He is a funny guy. See him in Becker?

Yeah, and I do have 1 season of the simpsons already, but they're on their 16th season currently, so it's quite the commitment to make.

And The Flash was a short-lived 90's show based on the comic book about the guy in red tights who runs real damned fast. Starred John Westley-Shipp (Dawson's dad from Dawson's Creek) and Amanda Pays (who was on Max Headroom). And Mark Hammill has a 2 episode guest shot as the Trickster (a very Joker-esque villain he played just before getting the job as the voice of the Joker on the Batman cartoon).

There was also a guest appearance by a pre-Seaquest Jonathan Brandis.

I used to love that show, but I probably won't get the DVDs. I've become more a fan of the Wally West Flash. (the comics plus my imagination tend to be as good or better than any TV show).

I thought Shipp brought a welcome sense of humour to an otherwise ho-hum character...

On a DC-related note, is Lois And Clark, season 2 worth getting also? It'll be coming out around the same time, and the first season was really fun on dvd. I recall the second being okay too, then it turned to silly, senseless crud, or so I remember it.

Hmmm, it sounds interesting. I might do the renting thing first to see if I like it.

Danny Elfman did the theme, that there's enough to recommend it...

If you liked Lois and Clark, I'd say just buy it, the $40 price is right.

Two of the Flash's creators wrote the first two 'Trancer' movies that starred Tim Thomerson- remember those?
