What Do You Know About Dark Shadows- The Original Television Series?

If you don't score 100%, we don't know you!  [hall2_grin]  Apparently most people only get 85% - shame on them! But if you get 100%, you've currently done better than 89% of the quiz takers.

Of course there's an error in one question. The 5th question is worded wrong - it should say which two actors, not characters.

And can you even imagine if Vicki was based on the title character of Fanny Hill?!  [b003]

I was almost afraid to take it - what if I missed something, how embarrassing that would be!  100% (most were EXTREMELY easy, but there was one I wasn't sure of).

I think they got it right - they list combinations of characters who were portrayed by the same actors.
I did notice one slight error, but don't want to give anything away.

This quiz was too easy! Lots of generalized questions, but there were a few that if you didn't stop for just a moment to think about them may have tripped you up on the answer. Thanks for posting!

The one question I had a problem with (but got it right) concerns David's paternity.  The series did subtlety intimate it was Burke.  But that's soap operas.

I agree, Gerard, I had to ponder that one for a bit before deciding how to answer.  My other quibble was calling gypsies a nationality.

Tain't bad on you, Patti.  We've all suffered FMDSS (False Memory Dark Shadows Syndrome).  For years, after I watched the show, I always thought that it was Petofi in Quentin's body who haunted RT69.  I watched the original run.  I saw many of the reruns during the 80's on TV.  I still thought that.  It wasn't until the Sci-Fi ("SyFy") running of the show where I found out what really happened despite my faulty memory.
