i caught up on 5 seasons worth of dvds, and then online sites that hosted the first 9 episodes to get to this point. i enjoyed watching them one after another on dvd. i just wonder how i would have looked at season 6 had i waited it out. because now it just seems a bit lacking

I have watched all 5 seasons on DVD, but the last season I've had to download, when I get episode 24, I'm going to do a 24 binge.

problem with dvds is you watch them a lot quicker... i prefer watching them slower.. it makes it easier to remember which episode is which, whereas if you watch like 3 in a day you can get confused... i think it kind of ruins it but thats my opinion!

i like watching them weekly, but i do get annoyed when i have to wait 2 c what happens. however i like watching them all in one day-thats what i do if i get them on dvd. so either way suits me :)

prefer the dvd only because i can watch back to back episodes & it helps pass the time on those dark winter nights.
Also i hate having to wait a week between episodes...

I know what you mean, i've watched all 5 seasons on dvd and do have real trouble with what went on in which season, and i'm terrible for remember characters if they weren't really main or crucial to the story line.
But i can't watch them on TV even if i wanted too.

I like watching it weekly, cause then it goes by slower, and I remember more, and I have more newer episodes.

I actually prefer to watch it weekly as it comes out. I'm old and need something to look forward to every week, LOL.

I love watching on DVD with my Husband or sister. Also the highlight of my Monday nights, but don't like commercials.

DVD. I know if I watched the weekly episodes, I would have nothing else on my mind during the rest of the week, apart from '24', and I wouldnt want to risk seeing some spoilers.
Did start watching season 6 on the Internet, but it just wasnt the same, so I gave up after 5 episodes. Roll on Christmas!

the problem with watching it on DVD is that you would be tempted to watch them all at once, and i wouldnt want to do that because i would feel its been a bit wasted. hard to explain what i mean, but i like the suspsense of watching it weekly!

I prefer to do 24 marathons, but out of need I watch every week during the season. It's one of the 3 shows I don't multitask while watching. Turn out the lights, crank the surround and imerse myself.

I've previously tried my best to record it whenever it's been on.
But i just can't keep up, plus the fact that it's pretty difficult to actually book the TV since that many people in my house watch it, yes i stated "book".
I prefer watching it on DVD Boxset.
Even though they take ages to be released, can't wait for season 6 right now, only a few more months, yay.

I like to watch it on DVD when my family is all home for Christmas break.
it's so much fun staying up late knowing we can sleep in late.

weekly (though it sometimes shifts)
the weekly wait makes the anticipation awesome

i like watching the box sets because you dont have adverts, and plus i like to watch 2 or 3 in a row and you can't get that with weekly episodes.
but but but but butttt with weekly episodes, you get more suspense with it.
so i'm not sure really!

DVD is much better. Watching episodes separately on TV causes you to lose momentum.
