I watched Dssperate housewives only the other day for the first time and really liked it, even though it didnt look like my cup of tea.

QI - 3/4 though Series C before I even checked it out. Have since gone back and watched them all
Also Fairly Odd Parents & Danny Phamtom
- had both been though their entitre run and axed' before I even saw them for the first time (though FOP was then announced as 'returned to production' about 2 months later, which pleased me)
Also avoided big brother like the plague when it first started but like it now

Then C4 had to go back to the beginning of the show, when they ran out of episodes and the very last season was not ready for UK transmission.
Now its the same for me with CSI in all its versions. I catch the latest runs, with occasional look back to episodes before I started watching on a regular basis.
On the reverse, I never missed X files till up until the last couple of series when Mulder when AWOL and they brought in other characters to investigate cases.
I have done the same thing, I started watching because I knew that JB would be in it for a while, so I have watched about 6 or 8 episodes, I really like it!
Battlestar Galactica, i bought the DVDs cheap so i caught up right to beginning of season 3 (right where most fans say it went down hill but i don't think the decline was as bad as they made out).
Only on episode 5, so far it's ok.
Same here with Gilmore Girls. When they started showing it on E4 I saw a couple episodes of what I later learned to be season 4.
I was hooked come the end of Tick Tick, Boom where Richard decided to go back to his old firm and sell out Jason.
I then stopped watching it E4 pace and watched it from start to finish on DVD. Love it!
never watched it til season 4 (just randomly starting watching it and got hooked), now am desperate for the new season in september
One Foot In The Grave (around series 4) then bought the boxset when it eventually came out, realised all the old ones I'd seen repeated on UK Gold were only half of what had been shown originally.
Oh i'm sorry....
so sorry.....
Would you believe - The Bill. I only started watching that a few years ago though it had been on for years. I am gutted it is ending.
Brookside - saw it for approximately the last year.
Agreed - I won't lie to you (see what I did there!), I had never seen it at all until I saw it for the first time on GOLD...er, lush (sorry). .seriously though never saw it on BBC but think it is hilarious with lots of pathos as well..
I also came across (after the weekly Father Ted repeat on More4) Curb your Enthusiasm, even though many of the episodes were 9 yrs old or so (especially loved the kidney donation episodes with the heaven sketch with Bea Arthur as Larry David's late mum)
The IT Crowd I didn't really watch until last series. This series it seems to be going off again slightly for me, but the second episode was funny.
I'm now watching season 7 every Monday on E4.
I've been told Veronica Mars is good so may buy that next.
Also, however I have not really started watching it yet, my sister thought it was good but I cuold not get into it.
However since I have seen that james cordon o football programs I would be a lot more inclined to watch it.
The title Gavin and Tracy puts me off because I don't really like the sound of a program which is just about a relationship.
I tried to watch it the other night but I still could not get into it.
Maybe it's too late now.
