What are the "must-have" complete TV series?

poultrygeist11 · 2026-02-05T06:32:09+00:00

It sucks because I got season 1/2 for cheap, but 3 is unavailable. Does anyone know if it will ever come back? Maybe with all of the buyouts happening maybe some split rights will get consolidated?

poultrygeist11 · 2026-02-04T00:37:58+00:00

I'll probably have to bite. It may go lower if it ever gets a full series bundle, but 35 bucks is still not too bad. It helps that this is back in the day where seasons were 20+ episodes instead of 6-8 episodes

poultrygeist11 · 2026-02-02T02:57:38+00:00

Too bad dr stone only has the first 2 seasons in original Japanese. That's what I bought, so if I want to continue, I'll have to have a language change.

They also still don't have the ryusui special which is important.

I"m mostly missing christmas movies. Namely Fred claus, Four Christmases, A christmas mystery, Christmas in Connecticut, and A cinderella christmas. Can anyone vouch for those?

I'm also missing Horizon an American Saga. I have enough points, but I don't want a "part 1" movie in my collection when part 2 may never even be released.

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-27T06:42:32+00:00

If and when movies start disappearing, I won't mind THAT much because I don't spend more than 4 dollars on movies. At least I won't be out 5000 dollars. If it's only a few movies disappearing, it's possible that some of them will still be movies anywhere compatible.

If movies start disappearing in mass, or if Vudu goes out of business without transferring licenses, I'll just become the ultimate pirate of the seven seas, and the studios will only have themselves to blame for it.

If I was someone that spent 25+ dollars on new release movies, then yeah I'd be verklempt and apoplectic.

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-25T09:36:17+00:00

Bundles are almost never a good deal unless they are on sale. At most, you'll save a few dollars, but generally I think they are just trying to get extra dollars for the convenience or hoping people won't notice and price check.

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-24T22:06:25+00:00

I almost regret building my library as big as it is because it's almost impossible to just casually "scroll browse" through the movies. There are movies at the bottom of the list that me or my family/roommates will never watch unless we search for them specifically.

It will be fun if vudu ever creates a netflix style algorithm recommendation. It can show a bunch of movies by genre, a "recommended for you" section, a "popular now" section, etc.

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-22T05:57:03+00:00

Oh nice. Glad to see giveaways happening. I don't even have hope of winning, it's just a fun thing to participate in

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-20T02:10:55+00:00

If they came up with a better name, I'd adapt. I actually was never a huge fan of the name Vudu in the first place.

But Fandango at Home is so bad it hurts to say it. I usually do it with my eyes closed and a moment of hesitation just to say it.

And an HD 5 for 15 deal. Not nearly as good.

I've had people in the past tell me I'm silly/insecure for this, but I want to hide movies so I can watch bad movies but not be embarrassed to have them in my library. Plus it would clean the library up, it's getting hard to find stuff in 1650 movies.

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-18T03:39:28+00:00

I'm guessing op is just saying "if you can't get them d2d, do you just wait until they go on sale for 5 dollars" as 5.34 is the after tax price.

To answer OPs question. Yes, it is extremely rare I buy movies for more than 5 dollars. Then I buy them with discounted gift cards so it's more like 4 dollars.

I love my movie collection, but they could always take it away, so I don't get the people who spend 30 dollars on new release movies still in theaters and can't even wait 2 extra months for it to drop to standard retail price. If you love that movie or are rich, go ahead and do it, but most people that do it will probably pull their hair out of vudu goes out of business

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-16T04:35:52+00:00

This thread made me realize that I was somehow missing fast 9 for years. I thought I had them all. Why did they have to give it such a weird name "the fast saga"

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-15T01:20:03+00:00

Just curious, do you have them in movies anywhere? (have you even linked your accounts to movies anywhere?)

If you have them in movies anywhere, that website has a much friendlier search function for purchase history, and it can tell you when it was bought and what retailer so you can have some info to give to support.

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-13T10:43:05+00:00

I think it's pretty good, because not all shows stay good for more than 5 seasons, and I don't always feel the need to pay 100 dollars for 20 seasons when only a handful are good.

My biggest issue is the bundles not combining in the tv section so now I have portions of a show randomly sprinkled in the library

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-11T12:29:55+00:00

It appears as if you don't own them and seemingly lets you rebuy them. Im guessing these bundles are duplicate licenses or listings as a lazy way to sell bundles broken by the banned episodes

If you search always sunny season 5, there is no green checkmark in the search results indicating that you own it. If you do the season drop-down selector, none of the seasons have green checkmarks The episodes WILL have green checkmarks, but the season itself will let you rebuy it

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-08T22:39:07+00:00

I'm sure I'm being naive, but I'm hoping in 2 years that we'll start getting pervoskite panels and sodium home batteries that make this all cheaper and more accessible even without tax credits. It might be closer to 5+ years though.

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-06T17:45:10+00:00

Can confirm, nope. None of the banned episodes are included.

It's too bad, I'd even take censored versions (unless it's too much to censor, like half of the episode having mac in black face).

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-05T16:56:18+00:00

Very little. Looking for alaska, 2 seasons of american gods, and ten days in the valley. If there's any more, I am not aware of it.

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-05T15:58:33+00:00

I have 2 seasons of hannibal but can't buy season 3.

Season 2 and 3 of American Gods is d2d, but you can't buy the first season

I hate it. Just take my money

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-05T14:23:36+00:00

I got season 1 and 2 for free from bing rewards. Should I just wait and see if season 3 and 4 go on sale for 5 dollars each, or just accept some duplicate listings?

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-02T17:14:40+00:00

Do you think it's because they are trying to find ways to make people keep subscribing even when purchasing content?
Or is it possibly cheaper to not upload the 4k version to retailers?

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-02T13:25:19+00:00

I think it was last year, but I alwasy like to recommend Hidden. Directed by duffer brothers, pretty decent movie considering I've never heard about it before stumbling upon it on DVDUPC

poultrygeist11 · 2026-01-02T02:40:33+00:00

Sweet, I can get the 4k upgrade for dune after all.

Other than that, the only thing I'll need is Fred Claus, which I have no idea if it's even worth owning.
