Post by: Gerard on January 27, 2007, 12:31:09 AM: Joan Bennett's Show.

(My mother also called it that along with Spooky Crap; whenever DS came up in conversation [and one of her sisters watched it, as I did], she'd say "That's Joan Bennett's Show." My mother loved Joan Bennett, and whenever she was on, she'd sit down and watch until somebody got bit, bewitched or otherwise supernaturalized, and then she'd roll her eyes and say: "Oh, that Spooky Crap.")

Love this one. It sure did. It reminded me at the end of a Buffy/Charmed type scenario with these big epic battles to save the Collins family and it was Julia and B who fought them. The Power of Two!!
