The first season was excellent, the second was pretty great, seasons 3 and 4 were good and by s6, well... I stopped halfway through 'cause it seems like they're not even trying anymore. No one to like, no structure.. It's a shame but that's just my take.

I'm a huge fan of the show. But the video will not play not one in the 80 episodes i purchased. The only videos in my library to have this issue too. Was very much looking forward to revisiting this series after many years. Shame.

Love the show from years ago but if I knew I was paying for buffering, I wouldn't purchase it. I can't even get through an episode without buffering that ruins it because it doesn't stop and I can't finish the episode.
