Just for the record:

[Tom, shut up about that beer, I'll bring one right up to you as soon as I'm done typing this ... OOPS!]
Yes, that scene with Julia cutting open Joe's shirt while Barnabas nervously looks on always has me crawling around on the carpet gnawing at the sofa cushions. (Yes, please DO call before you drop by our house.) It's just such a riot of subtext. THAT must have been an interesting day in the studio. Watching scenes such as this I realize just how focused and GOOD they could all be, not simply to collapse in fits of laughter at the proceedings. Of course it was a very serious situation ... Joe was badly injured, and on top of all that, Julia was about to discover that he was a vampire victim. Not pretty at all even if the sight of Joe's sculpted torso exposed to the light of day was the epitome of beauty. Would Percy Bysshe Shelley have come away from a viewing of this tape drunk with beauty? I suspect he would have done.
Hey, Connie, got any shots of David in the bathtub scene from the Girl in Blue?
