Yeah, I know … you hate me. I keep mentioning these sick deals for TV on DVD at Amazon.com, yet meanwhile, you’re blowing the moths out of your wallets. Hell, I’m having a hard time not filling my office, living room and garage with more of these sets! But I don’t want you to miss out on them, since they make great bargains for gifts if you’re not getting them for yourself.

Here are a few of the deals that are still up this week:

Weeds: Season One — Normally $29.98, now $14.49 (same savings on season 2 and season 3)

Mad Men: Season One (Blu-ray) — Normally $49.99, now $24.99

Silly me to completely forget that those great “Black Friday” deals happening on Amazon.com were not only for Friday. It turns out that many (or most) of the deals I mentioned last week are still going on today and into the wee hours of tomorrow morning. For example, the Monty Python complete series is still going for a steal at $53.49.

A couple more I didn’t mention last week:

John Adams HBO mini-series: normally $59.99, sale for $23.99

Batman: The Complete Animated Series: normally $107.92, sale for $75.99

Gilligan’s Island: Complete Series: normally $114.82, sale for $32.99

Weeds: a few different seasons (all?) are going for only $11.99

Let us know how you make out shopping these deals!

I didn’t realize — until catching the news last night — that people actually still wait in line through the wee hours of the night to get in on good “Black Friday” deals at retailers. Why go wait in line in the cold and rain when there’s the Internet? Not that it’s a fool-proof way to get to the shopping deals in time, but it’s better than camping out.

I took a look this morning at some of the deals Amazon.com has for TV shows on DVD, and there’s some pretty impressive offerings. I’ve added a list of them below. (Full disclosure: I’ve added the CliqueClack referral tracking code for these, so we definitely appreciate you using our links for your Amazon.com shopping!)

Complete Monty Python’s Flying Circus: Normally $99.95, today $53.49

HBO’s Band of Brothers on Blu-ray: Normally $99.98, today $49.99

(Season 2, Episode 8)

I love this show. This and Pushing Daisies are my favorite shows that debuted last season, and now that it looks like Daisies may bite the dust, Life better continue to get decent ratings, or I will freak the hell out. Anyway, speaking of freaking out, I love that this episode took place on the scariest day of the year: Black Friday.

I had my first Black Friday experience last year at the Target in Brooklyn, and Oh. My. God. Never again. Quite frankly, I’m surprised that I didn’t see a dead body, but I know that if there was one, it would not have stopped people from shopping even a little bit. A dead body certainly didn’t stop Crews from shopping, for which I am thankful, since his conversation with Reese about learning Dutch in four days and not washing his face with soap was hilarious. Danni’s reaction when he asks her if he wants the lacy underwear just proves something I’ve thought for quite a while: there are just some people who can get away with sexual harassment.
