Best software program for cataloging TV show DVDs?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I use a program called : http://www.whereisit-soft.com/
"WhereIsIt can be used to handle any kind of data, including downloaded programs, magazine CD-ROMs, music collections like MP3s or audio CDs, graphics collections, document backups, etc. WhereIsIt can handle lots of them, too, a couple hundreds or thousands disks in a catalog is nothing unusual, yet catalogs remain reasonably small, single-filed and easy to transfer or send to other users. You can also create more than one catalog, and at any time open and work with as many catalogs at once as needed."
I bought this program a few years back and I love it!! The price is a little high: $39.95 USD; however, I think it is well worth the cost.

M$Thanks for the answer. Please see above comment.
Also, I tried the movie collection software from Collectorz.com and it was really close to what I need, but the support for TV shows was weak. When I tried to enter a DVD from Star Trek TNG season 1, for example, the entire season was one entry. I would like each DVD to be separate so if one is missing (again see above for example) I can easily see.

Thanks for the answer. This looks like a good program but not exactly what I need. I would like one that will retrieve the DVD info and tell me how many discs are in the series, number of seasons, etc. and show what I have and need. For example: Star Trek TNG has seven seasons with 7 discs per season (I think) and I found seasons 1-3 at a flea-market. When I got them home I found that disc 3 of season 1 was broken and would not work. What I would like is to be able to enter the series name and have the program retrieve the info (from a search on the series from an internet database somewhere) and then I can select the discs I have and mark the ones I don't as 'needed' or such.
