What's your oldest season pass? Or, perhaps more clear ly, what TV show have you been recording regularly for the longest time, maybe across a series of DVRs and VCRs?

I think mine must be Formula One racing - I remember setting my VCR to record early morning races shortly after changing my DirecTV package specifically to get the SpeedChannel and I've been recording it ever since. Definitely more than ten years!

Saturday Night Live. It was what got me to get my first VCR. Don't recall the date, but it was a long time ago!

 

[Scott Kocourek]

It either has to be CSI or Survivor here. I wonder which will die first.

The longest running show in which we still have an active Series Link would have to be NASCAR on FOX. A close second would be Bill O'Reilly..

"CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" (first season 2000) and "NCIS: Naval Criminal Investigative Service" (first season 2003) are the only two shows I'm still regularly recording that I started regularly recording when we bought our two Dish PVR508's in 2003.

Those two shows are the only shows I regularly record now that were airing in 2003. Before that, I only occasionally recorded shows on a VCR.

I have been recording MotorWeek on PBS since 1985. Basically it has been almost every Saturday or Sunday (depending on where I was living).

 

[Supramom2000]

General Hospital since VCR's were invented!!

 

[Nighthawk68]

Current show still on the air would have to be Two and a Half Men, been recording since season 3.

I'd guess that SUV would be the longest SL.

If I remember correctly, Saturday night used to loaded with good shows and I was always out on Saturday nights, so that weighed heavily on getting my first VCR, a Beta-Max. Probably ~ '82 or '83.

Cool. What year did you acquire your first VCR?

Yes, that's the time frame I am in. It was a toss up then between the two formats, and I chose VCR, and not long thereafter, Macintosh. Lucky!

 

[MysteryMan]

Law & Order. Began using a VCR until I upgraded to DVR.

 

[Indiana627]

I think Survivor (though it has to be a new season pass for each season).
