Over the past week, I’ve noticed that my DVR has been strangely full to the point where I have to delete like three things just about every time I record anything. Last night, I vowed to unearth the root of this problem, and it only took me about four seconds to figure out what had happened:

I Season-Passed the Ken Burns “National Parks” PBS Documentary Series last month. In HD. And designated it “Save Until Manually Deleted.”

This was tying up roughly… 99.9999999999% of the total space on my DVR, and yet, as I stared at the episode descriptions, I could not in good conscience delete something that I not only was positive I’d love, but that also seemed so literate and valuable compared to the rest of the stuff I usually DVR (e.g., regular season NHL games, every HBO series regardless of how behind I am, and funny one-second things that happened during NFL broadcasts that I can’t bring myself to erase). I know I’ll never delete National Parks for this exact reason, but I also know that I’ll NEVER decide that it’s time to start watching this 1,000-hour commercial-free documentary about land. I’m resigned to having it on my DVR until the end of time.

This brings me to our question for the weekend:

What is your all-time worst DVR space taker-upper?

Movie you never felt like watching? Entire series you know you’ll like but never got around to starting? Memorable event that you just save on your DVR forever out of principle? Ken Burns’ National Parks documentary? And if you don’t have Tivo or a DVR, then…wow. Get one.
