Paul did you know that episode 70 was our good friends Scott's favorite episode? I know we all miss him. What a great guy and friend!!

Love your posts Paul. Keep them coming. I am in all episodes picking my favorite storylines to watch. I did binge the show from first year into the color episodes and then began to skip I confess. I did the entire prime time series too. Just so many hours in the day is the problem. I...

Congratulations to the cast and crew of Dark Shadows. 50 years old today! You made magic and fun for me as a kid growing up. Yes I was there for that very first show before it became a hit that all of us ran home to see. I celebrated this weekend with viewings of all 3 movies the NBC remake...

Hi Paul, I plan to try. While watching my favorite summer story arcs of the show as I do every year 67-70. I started in January did lots of binge episodes and made it all the way into Barnabas. I stopped and decided I would count some of the episodes I watched on the decade binge which would...

Having my reel to reel recordings from when I ran home to see the show has been a very happy 49 years. I am looking forward to see what they come up with the 50th anniversary. I only wish our good friend Scott for whom this thread is named could be here to share it with us. I think about...

I just had a memory which I know I brought up 2 years ago. Some show which I only watched once had an episode filmed at the original Collinwood. The owners claimed that it was haunted and you were able to view rooms in the house. Also there are films of the house. I used to have where to look...

Thanks Harry! I was going to write before your post that your Elvis line and the image I now have is like a bad tune on the radio that you keep hearing on repeat in your head for days until it goes away. Now thanks to you with the image I have a tune to go with it. Playing over and over again...

You guys have ruined my image of Frid in that storyline for good. I wish we had a not like button to push in this forum because you guys would get one. I am only joking LOL I really will though now think of Elvis thanks to Harry!!!!

Fans do not forget that Seizure came out on blu-ray last year which Jonathan made after DS and he is very good in that. Something which has been repeated here before Dan wanted him for the second DS movie but he refused to do it. Hence they came up with the Night of DS which we all know would...

Harry I read what you said earlier this year on the music. I love the different versions on some themes. But you will notice that the Widows Wail is not there from album 3 where it is there. The first version is but not the one fans know. Laura's spell casting theme is also in one version only...

I also never cared for PT but it was a way for Jonathan to shed the Vampire image which he so wanted to do even though as he said he knew it would kill the show. The ratings though had gone up as the story from PT1841 was wrapping up and fans were caught off guard at the cancelation of the...

I hear you Brian. If ever there was huge fan of DS it has been me. I have been watching this show since it first aired. Then listened to audio tapes of the show during it's run which I made while watching. I did not keep every episode of course. I have often thought of getting those out for...

Harry very well put. I have this sneaking idea that you will begin watching again. You said it before. When the show aired on decades you started watching and so did I. Paul also has a point about being slow. All episodes could not pack a punch but that weaved into some great storyline and...

Paul, I have an idea of doing it. Like Harry states it takes time. The show does have those slow spots as Harry indicated. I watch the Laura Collins episodes from the start to the end every winter. That story line is pretty fast moving. This year though I began to edit the end credits and...

Harry how is the viewing coming? Barnabas and Julia out looking for that Zorro looking Vampire which is after Maggie. I love the scene when Julia and Willie find the Vampire and talk to Barnabas about it. Reminds me of the good old days on the show. Here is news. Dark Shadows will be...

Sorry about that cold you have Harry. Hope it gets better. I remember when the room switched and we were in 1995. I thought as a kid DS still has some surprises for me. The fall of 1970 present time was not bad either. The 1840 flash back is good but you will see a drag about November when...

I believe the day that episode aired that night Jonathan appeared on the Generation Gap show which I saw when the episode and it originally aired.

I remember watching that episode as a kid. Just loved every minute of it. Do not count Trask out though. You will see him again James. I will not spoil it for you though. Harry remember after Julia joins Barnabas that particular scene I was talking about with Angelique in the cave. I am...

Harry you hit the nail on the head. I always missed the central characters when they were back in the past. Viewing it as a kid you described just how I felt during that 1897 flash forward and when it happened again with Count Petofi and the major one September the 10th when Julia goes back to...

I was just able to grab closing credits. They are the same. The interesting thing is that CBS is now advertising itself as the distributor of the show in stead World Wide from the old syndicator days. We still are getting the wrong date on the show which was the way it aired and confused so...

James, I always knew you were worried about listening to bonus features. I have not looked at them since the first time I bought the DVDs title by title at Best Buy. I remember even going on a job interview when the very last of the DVDs came out before the 6 collectors series came out. The...

Harry you must be entering into the last year of the show. PT 1970 will end with a bang the flash forward to 1995 and then the Quentin Beth storyline again with a different twist sending Barnabas and Julia back to 1840. The show ending on April 2nd 1971 while in PT 1841. Yes Jack he does...

I love this subject. I have lived with the show since audio tapes which I listen to since it went off the air. I have said this before. I even took them to school with me reel to reel tape recordings which I still have and sound just as good as they did when I recorded the show. Then cam...

Hey I wonder where the MPI Angelique DVD is? I suppose we shall get a mailing on it. Harry the 45s you had I tried to buy as a kid Ode to Angelique and could not find them. I had the ad for them but never got them. I first heard the version of it of course on the show but not until the CD...

Angelique drew me in Harry with all those Ads she must have cooked up. Thanks for the warm welcome!

Harry hated PT 1970 while the cast was away. I was glad when they did and Julia made the cross over from our time to PT. DS then goes into a who done it show with a great deal from the movie Laura involved.

Glad to hear it Harry. The show takes a turn as Barnabas talked about on Carson. Fans did not like his evil nature and so the writers changed things with this show. Such as when you hear him speak to Julia at the end of the episode. The pace will pick up and we shall see a fan favorite...

Harry have you come to the dream vampire episode with Marsha Mason? This is the episode that Jonathan went on Carson to talk about before it aired.

Harry had never heard that term. Did you learn that from your radio days? You will also see some good scenes with Dennis Patrick and Joan Bennett. He left the show so the story is told very early in 1970 because he wanted to go to his daughters graduation. He of course gets a nice key role in...

Harry thanks for clearing that up for me. DS is looking good and I think fans will notice as you get into the later episodes the shows will look better. I shall be very curious how they will look on Decades.
