Happy 15th Anniversary!!
« on: January 14, 2006, 10:09:22 PM »
It's hard to believe, but yesterday and today mark the 15th Anniversary of the airing of the '91 series "miniseries," consisting of the pilot and episodes #2 & #3. Where does the time go?

OMG! That was 15 years ago? I was.... 11.

Brings back memories of my very gothy cousin Tiffanie and sitting up every Friday night watching the series with her.

My Mom tried to get us to watch the original, but I didn't want anything to do with it because it was in black & white. Oh, how times have changed!

Talk about a coincidence - while I was watching my tape of Sci-Fi's 07/24/96 running of Ep #667 for today's slideshow, what voiceover should come over the closing credits but this:

Barnabas Collins has returned - a stranger clad in darkness and legend. Is he really a man of mystery or a terrifying creature of the night? Find out on the new Dark Shadows, part of the Sci-Fi Series Collection, tonight at 9pm Eastern, 6 Pacific
