I would like to see Dark Shadows and it's stars featured on Biography but only with the cooperation of the people involved with the show and only if it was allowed to present an accurate picture, warts and all. When I say that I don't mean delving into the peronal lives of the stars, but everyone has their likes, dislikes, idiosyncrasies, egos, opinions, etc. At least in my opinion it would be facinating to watch a true depiction of what everyone thought about the show, the cast and crew, the different story lines, the writing and all the rest.
I believe that this could be done without being sensationalistic, tabloidish and the like, which apparantly the video that aired at the last years Festival was. I wasn't there so I did not see it.
I believe it would be a disservice to the fans and the show if the Biography painted a totally rosy picture of life on the Dark Shadows set where everyone always gets along with everyone else, is in total agreement with one another and the different directions the show took. The only place that happens is Utopia, at least here on earth anyway.
I would have no interest in viewing the Biography if it didn't go any deeper than say the articles of 16 and Tiger Beat magazines that my sisters loved to read when they were teenagers.
I'm sure these are things those involved with the show have to ponder. After all these years do they want to take a realistic look at what happened for almost five years on that set and share it with their fans or do they want to let it rest and leave well enough alone?
I'm quite sure the Biography channel would be interested if those involved with the show are.
I guess we'll all have to wait and see.
Thanks,
Murph
