Who else thinks that TV has never managed to match the high that was Prisoner of Cell Block H?

could not agree more barney boy, i absolutely love Prisoner Cell Block H, have about 300 episodes on DVD and am now glad that they have finally yielded and released all the episodes officially on DVD, which will be better than VHS transfers.\n\nEveryone had a favourite Top Dog, villain and Joan"The Freak" Ferguson was the Baddie we all loved to hate.\n\nI'm re-watching , where Myra has given the Top Dog position to Reb Keane who has just laced "Rabbits" Jammie Dodger with Drugs, and will Miss Ferguson catch Len Murphy and Lou Kelly at it, not if Lou's request for a cell transfer happens........\n\n"he used to give me roses, i wish he would again, \nbut that was on the outside, and things were different then."\n\nRather watch Prisoner again the usual round of "celebrities reality" TV

Entirely too much television! I couldn't live without my television. Television has turned my mind into mush.\n\nI can't read without drooling in 2 minutes flat, but I can watch a marathon of Chappell's Show on replay for 2-days straight.\n\nMush... just mush.

The concept of the show is good, they just didn't hit the mark though!!!! I just can't get into the show (probably because it's on at the same time as Lost)!!!!\n\nThe finale is Wednesday and I hope they ALL go home the way they came into the game....BROKE!!!!!! LOL

Yes, it was pretty bad.  Not bad for good either.  Just bad.  Most of these peeps have never heard of it and they should count their blessings!  It was made-for-tv in a bad way!  I'd already forgotten about...lol and it's only been out couple years, very unforgettable!  good question :-)

That's a very good question.\n\nWe watch far too much television. It's rotting our brains, breeding passivity, and destroying our attention spans...Wow, I'm looking at that TOTALLY psychedelic avatar you have... I'm sorry, I'm so mesmerised now that I can't answer your question....

This Show rocks!!!  \n\nThey tried to name a Street after Jack Bauer but people kept dying at the intersection....Because nobody crosses Jack Bauer and lives!!!!

B.  I still watch on DVD.  It's so witty and creative...unlike anything before or since.  The premise...being trapped in the small town with people who have never seen a real city...never ceases to be funny.  Outlandish stuff actually starts to seems sort of normal after you get to know the characters.  I feel the doctor's pain, not being able to leave, but the people really do need him.  The sexual tension between the doctor and Maggie is a good story line, too, although not very original.  That exists in many shows, but it's still good.

Wow.  It was a great show.  I used to watch it every week with my friend.  We even taped it on VCR tapes and rewatched them in marathon form.  This was before they sold DVD's of TV shows.  It rocks still and I'm a HUGE fan too!

OMG, I loved that show when I was younger. I had forgotten all about it. I used to watch that and DeGrassi Jr. High. Lol. Check out the link below. It gives DVD's and they sound about as close as you can get to the show.

I agree with you.  It's boring.  I realize that there are tons of people who love it but I can't figure out why.  Does it drive you crazy that it is on TV all the time?

It started out a little boring until the rest of the cast started to break out.  I swear every single person on that show, the Indian Woman, the Alcoholic, The Heavy Guy, The Heavy woman,the Christian woman, Dwight, the stupid practical joke playing friend, the gay hispanic guy...  They're all hilairious!  I've seen a show where three or four characters are very funny but in this show it's like 15-18 people.  Everyone who is on screen steals the show!  Even the guys in the warehouse!

YES!! I think that it is great!!  Somehow, even though each show basically follows the same formula it is still equally as captivating every week.  Probably because of some of the things House gets away with saying...Hugh Laurie is so good, and it is funny because when you see him on the award shows and talk shows his personality nothing like House (thankfully) so he must be a great actor.  Plus, when i see him on other shows, i always expect him to be walking with a cane....

I think that show is on the Sci-Fi channel these days.  You can get it on DVD, too.
