    I think those were some harsh close-ups for a mature actress.  Was that what Gothick referred to as 'frumpiness'? I remember seeing Doris Days shows and they blurred the lens so much she was barely visible.

    Thanks, Midnite, for the shots and dialogue for those of us not able to see the broadcast.

     My family saw the trailer several weeks ago.  My son asked me if the man playing Willy Wonka was Michael Jackson.  Depp looks kinda creepy.  Not Barnabas creepy but icky creepy.  I think I may see the film out of curiosity.  I would be interested in everyones first impression upon seeing the trailer.

     By the way, Midnite, I love your avatar.  Selby as young Elvis.  How old is he in this picture?  He looks 19.

     If anyone can find the old vampire themed Peanuts strips, would it be legal to post them?

" I hate to bring this up but it is customary to pay your physician for services rendered.  I'll send you the bill."

     (I always wondered if Julia ever charged anyone for her care.  No wonder why she wore the same yucky suits)

Victoriawinters,

     I did not mean to make this a statement about race but more about realistic casting.  The casting can be as colorful as any other show.  A black Professor Stokes or a black Angelique would have been very interesting with a rich backstory.  I thought an asian Dr Hoffman might work but she was very young and beautiful.  The same kind of woman Barnabas always pursues so his rejection of her as a love interest would have seemed odd.  Grayson Hall and Barbara Steele were both attractive and accomplished women that would seem intimidating to Barnabas.
     I am insulted that you read more into my opinion than was intended.  I have lived  in Maine for 16 years and lived 28 years in California.  As odd as it seems, small Maine towns are primarily white.  If racial diversity is the goal for DS casting, the venue needs to be changed to a more metropolitan area like Boston or New York.

     Like Gothick, I am not pining for a DS remake.  I agree with ProfStokes that any remake would look like an imposter DS.  I just want to see the original again so we can watch it together.
     I read an article that referred to WB's Barnabas as a "blue collar" Barnabas.  I shudder to think what they meant.  While Frid is not conventional leading man handsome, he was always courtly and refined.  What the heck was WB attempting to do with the new cast?   Black sheriff in a white Maine town, oriental beauty Dr. Hoffman, and "blue collar" Barnabas is not a DS that interests me.  Although, a black Angelique would have been interesting.
     I did watch the 91 DS and enjoyed it but I did not compare it to the original.  It was so different as to be more parallel time DS.

     Love the Grayson portrait.  I always loved her short doo.  Short and sassy!
