Ownership in the world of digital media hasn't really been on the top of my list when you can borrow, copy or rent most of what your heart or mind desires. But there are a few TV-shows that I'd like to own, to claim mine so I can in the spur of the moment watch them over and over again:
1. Frasier - His everyday concerns and shortcomings are mine. It's probably the most intelligent show (together with CSI) ever made.
2. CSI (the original) - Talk about the devil is in the details. I'm addicted to this show. Yesterday they had a 4-hour marathon including the special directed by Quentin Tarantino.
3. Friends - So simply, a show just about being good friends and how challenging it can be. The coffee shop is our sanctum.
So why TV-shows? Well, they run about 22 (Frasier and Friends) or 44 minutes (CSI) net commercials. That's the perfect time to take a break from anything. They are easily digestable due to their well known context and characters. They're also rewarding - the more you watch the more of the hidden clues and relationships you see and understand. The sounds and tone is also very comforting eventhough CSI can be very dramatic and gruesome in many ways.
