Wouldn't that be just a tad boring? I think it's much more interesting to watch episodes from different years. Plus not everyone (including myself) has all the episodes so by watching them in order of production, you would exclude many people.

I agree. Watching them in order would be too predictable, I like mixing the eras together. And everyone has their own favorite era, so it's best to just have someone pick an episode each week.

| Can we please post a list of episodes-watched (group watched) once we've seen a few, to avoid choosing the same episodes again in future? |

Just start a new topic for this, the person who posted the first post can include a list in this first post. This first post can be edited and the list updated as often as he or she want to. |

Okay, tonight we'll talk about Honey for the prince.
Concerning next episode, I'll choose one of another season.

Isn't somebody else supposed to choose the next episode?

I'd like to create "Avenging parties": every Saturday, we would watch an episode of the series at 9.00pm (the same episode for everyone) and we would talk about it later on this forum or on msn.
Are you interested by this project ? |
I think this is an excellent idea. Not only does it help to keep the show alive and being watched, but it will also provide an opportunity for newcomers to become acquainted with it and to discuss what they think and feel about it - with others - after they have watched it.
As others have said, I think the episodes should be chosen at random from different epochs of the show, and I think that you - as the originator of the idea - should do the choosing; because otherwise there is endless potential for wrangling and disagreements over which episodes to watch.
Unfortunately, I own no videos or DVDs of The Avengers and nor do I have a Region 1 player, otherwise I would gladly join in as it would be the perfect opportunity for me to re-acquaint myself with the show. Hopefully, when my finances improve, that situation will change. |

I don't know what I can do : should I choose the next episode or not ?
Maybe it would be better to let you, dear members, choosing the next episode.

Well, we never discussed "Honey For The Prince", so maybe we should do that before picking another episode.

^That was exactly my point.
So what's the plan? Do we start a new thread for 'Honey for the Prince'?

My suggestion would be a thread entitled (say): Honey For The Prince -Discussion Thread and go from there. It would be impossible for everyone to watch this at a particular time, so people could drop in on the thread whenever they can. The thread doesn't have to be 'live', as it were.
Have to be quick-sticks as it'll soon be time for Too Many Christmas Trees - Discussion Thread

Well, if we can watch the episodes whenever we want, it will be slightly problematic.
I prefer creating a subject right now about the episode, every one who watched it put his remark, what does he think etc...then we close the subject.
Do you agree ?

^why close it? if someone wants to add something to it later, I think this should still be possible.

I agree. The threads should be left open, so anyone can add to them later.
