Interested in who has followed a television series all the way through. From the first episode to the last, or for those that aren't over yet, to the presently aired episode.
I've managed to squeeze two in to my life.
Sliders and Stargate SG-1.

Futurama and - so far - Battlestar Galactica are the only two that made me want to.
Well, and V, back in the 80s.

I'm really trying to stick with Smallville but these last 3-4 seasons have made it very difficult. Season 8 was suppose to be the last but I heard rumors that the CW network wants to drag it out to season 9.
I don't think I can hold out for that long. Besides, Tom Welling just turned 31. They should have ended the series three seasons ago and done a spinoff called Metropolis.

Too many to count. In one sitting? In high school my friends and I watched Robotech (36 episodes, about 14 hours) in one marathon.

With the exception of Seinfeld, No. i usually loose interest, where they add unnecessary drama and romances to the plot.

Back in my younger days, I watched all of the Star Trek TNG, but recently I just don't have the desire, or time to watch a lot of TV. I'm thinking that's a good thing, it interferes with my macnn time

Ohh thats right again. I watched all of Star Trek Voyager and possibly all of Star Trek TNG.
Guess I've spent a few more hours in front of the T.V. then I thought. And there's also movies, which is what I mostly watch. But that's a whole other thread. Of course, I'm sure some of you still have watched 3-4 times or more movies than me.

I'm not sure but I think....none!
As a child though there could have been a few but I'm not sure if I really didn't miss any of the shows (for the Germans: Patrick Packard, Silas, Anna, ... I watched all those 80's shows)

Not many. Night Court is all that comes to mind. Possibly Northern Exposure... Not that much of a TV watcher really. I'd rather play a video game if I have the TV on.
After the fact I've had to sit through Buffy and Angel. Futurama during its time on Cartoon Network is a good bet, too.
Almost forgot Spongebob. Between me and my almost 4 y.o. I'm sure I've seen them all.

Oh, I absolutely loved it. How could you go wrong with a character like Dan Fielding? The Cosby Show? Family Ties? *pffft!*

I didn't say it was bad. Just really random. God knows I was enjoying seeing it again on TV land. Better than 90% of the crap they play on there.

Entourage
Futurama
Family Guy
Arrested Development
My Name is Earl (although the newer ones aren't as funny)
American Dad
South Park (seen every episode twice or more)
I think that's about all the shows where I've seen every single episode.
I'd say I've seen maybe 90% of the simpsons

Sopranos, Futurama, Venture Brothers (new season this sunday at 11:30!). Seinfeld, Star Trek TNG, It's always Sunny in Philadelphia, and if the Simpsons didn't put on 6 seasons of awful I would say them too.

Star Trek: Voyager is the only show where I watched (nearly) every episode when it was originally aired. I only missed a couple during its 7-year run, and I think I subsequently saw all of them (the one I remember missing and then seeing later was the really bad one where Paris and Janeway go warp 10 and turn into salamanders and have little salamander babies).
Others, seen on DVD:
Babylon 5
Battlestar Galactica
Firefly
I've also seen nearly every episode of Seinfeld, but all out of order, so I don't know which ones I've missed. Same with most of Star Trek: TNG.

Seinfeld (at least 10 times through) and Friends (against my will).
I'm still keeping up with The Office, 24, and LOST. I'm also working my way through CSI, trying to catch up.

Season 3 wasn't as good as 2, though. Not sure what my vote would be for.

Agreed. Seasons 1 and 2 are pure genius, though. My favorite is the one where Charlie thinks he has a son, and they're in the mall:
Kid - "You have to buy me a toy!"
Charlie - "I don't have to buy you shiiiiiit!"

The abortion one was fantastic. Oh, and the one where Dennis picks all the black kids for the basketball team (especially the sequence where a very drunk Charlie [as the referee] comes out of nowhere to block a kids lay-up, grabs the ball dribbles up-court and completely duffs his lay-up into the bottom of the rim).

Wow, there are so many I've watched all of the way through. Here is what I can think of.
Chuck, Firefly, Heroes, 24, Lost, The Shield, Smallville (don't ask why), The Office (US), Battlestar Galactica, Psych, Jericho, Prison Break, Daybreak, The Dead Zone, X-Files, Star Trek Enterprise, Alias, Stargate SG-1, ER (through season 6), How I Met Your Mother, Vanished
I was going to list Silders but I think I missed a few episodes. I lost interest after the original cast started leaving. I know I saw the last season, though.

Yea, that sort of sucked.
I rejoiced when Maggy joined. I managed to make it through losing Wade. Didn't care for Collin. Hated it when Quinn left. HATED it when Mallory tried to take over. I know the professor was lost in there somewhere too, but I can't remember exactly. And I remember the (since I don't remember her name) black chick joining, but didn't seem to like her either. Rembrandt leaving at the end was just the worst ending.
