Did the TV show have highlights I should go back and watch?  The wife and I started to get the DVDs from volume 1 from netflix, but they were so slow and dry we couldn't watch them.  I watched the first few originally on TV and liked how they mixed the Jake Lloyd Indy with Sean Patrick Flanery Indy, but I noticed they undid that on the DVDs.  (Where's www.originalyoungindianajones.com when you need it?)  We skipped to volume 2 (all SPF Indy, all the time!), if I recall and thought those were more decent, but still not quite worth my time.  Vol3 promises to be more exciting, but I'm sure I believe it.

I hated KotCS, if that's any indication of the kind of Indy fan I am.  (Or of my continuuing good taste)  I really liked IJ:Fate of Atlantis and some of the stuff in the Dark Horse comics.  I acutally really liked the Young Indy books that predated the show by a couple of years.  Did anyone else read those?  I was in grade school when I last read them, but I and my friends all really liked them.
