over the past three years i have been(slowly)watching d.s. on video from episode one.i get one or two volumes a month.and i have been rivited by each one(until now).
i loved the naive charm of the 1966 eps...the mystery of the laura collins story...the drama of the liz/jason blackmail story...the suspence of the early barnabas eps. and julia's introduction...the excellence of the 1795 story and the excitement of the return to the present.
but i just watched the eps. where adam is brought to life and is being kept at the old house.for the first time ever i was distracted,disinterested.for the first time i felt as if i were being had by the writers.i didn't care about the character or what was going on because it didn't relate to anything else on the show before.it had a loud,cartoonish quality that seemed like a different show.it's campy.subtlety and suspense tossed out.vicki suddenly becomes less focal...in other words i didn't like it.i intended to watch this thing from begining to end,but now i'm wondering if i'll lose interest.
does anyone else think the show took a turn for the worse around this time?
