I can't offhand think of an incident in which I'd slap Evan Hanley, since even when he [spoiler]called up the devil he got Trask which was too perfect. I had to laugh and when I'm laughing I am not in the mood for slapping.[/spoiler]

I can think of an incident where I'd slap Evan Hanley and GOOD.  >:( [spoiler]After meeting Trask and being blackmailed by him for practicing black magic, Hanley brainwashed Tim Shaw into killing Trask's wife, Minerva.  After the poisoning, Hanley showed up and removed the spell from Tim and then accused him of killing Mrs. Trask.[/spoiler] IMO that give good reason to slap him real good.  >:D[/color]

IIRC (and I think I do) Willie Loomis was in that episode. [spoiler]It was when he and Julia were waiting for Barnabas' return, and fretting that he may have become trapped in the past. I think this is when Willie goes to the mausoleum, opens the coffin and it's empty, leaves and a few moments later the chains appear on the coffin. He goes back to the Old House where Josette's ghost lets him know Barnabas is in danger, he and Julia hightail it back to the mausoleum where they find Barnabas in the coffin. So this was not an unlucky episode after all. It was a great episode.[/spoiler][/b]

Yeap, that's the episode.  It also has [spoiler]Ben protecting Barnabas from Nathan and the countess from killing him.  Ben kills them both to protect Barnabas.[/spoiler]

What happens if no one can think of a word for one letter?  Is the game over or do we skip that letter and continue with the others?

Hands down, it's Desmond.  First he was a REAL lawyer and second:
Not only is Desmond a better lawyer, Karlen's a better actor!!!!!

Does this convey my answer clearly enough?  [hall2_wink]
based on his lawyering skills, or should we say lack thereof, back in August of 2003 we rechristened him Bozo Bradford.  [hall2_grin]

Love the picture of Bradford, er, I mean Bozo.  They are one and the same. [silly]

Or maybe Josette or Sarah is trying to warn her?

I hadn't thought of that.  [scratch2] In fact, I like your theory better!  [headbang] Why would Barnabas "warn" her of her death?  But Josette or Sarah might.  I'd say Josette since she's the one who has been shown on the show before this.

Ok, tough choices.  My choice for the longest suffering is Barnabas since I'm counting 172+ years stuck in that coffin and knowing all his loved ones are dead.  But he had to move on.  He carried his anguish on his shoulders though.  I picked him because of that.

As far as the one who suffered the most, I would say Julia, because her achievements on the impossible was never recognized [curing the undead] and for the love she had for the man who never reciprocated that love.  If it were me, I would have moved on and found someone else but she stuck right beside Barnabas for years.  In time, he was completely devoted to her but not in a romantic sense. That had to sting.

WOW David really looks frightened, with the tears and motionsl.  Great job!  and then Barnabas is there.  Did you see the small smile forming as he glared down at David?  I agree with David, it sounded like more than just 'one' stray dog and in the house vs. outside!  Does it mean the vampire is getting closer?

Barnabas is gentle with David, telling him about the portrait and that he can come anytime to see it.  Again, with the open invitation for someone to come around anytime, day or night, to the house.  Is Barnabas trying to be found out?

Willie worries for good reason.  Barnabas thinks it's too much but I disagree.

"Willie and I have an understanding," Barnabas says to Liz while she's requesting him to get rid of Willie.  An understanding... yes you could call it that but it's one-sided.  He says he has Willie under his "complete control".  If she only knew what type of control.  In all fairness, Barnabas is actually sticking up for Willie, for his own reasons of course.  He has such a knack for getting his way...he manipulates the situations with such finesse that people don't even know they are being manipulated.  I just wonder what he means when he says "I can dismiss him at the slightest sign of trouble."  Does that mean dismiss equals "death"?

Jason goes to see Willie and drill him on why he's still around.  Willie says "a little this and that, carpentry, plumbing..."  Plumbing?  So that means there's running water, indoor toilet, and such?  I didn't remember this being said.  Jason gets a little rough with Willie [minus the slapping] and demands to know what he's up to, working for a rich guy.  Why should he care?  He has a rich woman who he's scamming.  Let Willie have his scam, if that is what it is.  But Barnabas walks in and tells Jason exactly what he's doing there.  Nice touch.  Jason can't bully Barnabas like he does Willie.

Does anyone else remember combing their hair 100 times for that shiny look?  I do but it's not a habit anymore.  Maggie sure seems nervous, enough to not want her father to go out to paint.  What does she have to be afraid of, being home, safe behind locked doors... they are locked aren't they?  Dreams are always spooky on this show.  Maggie's is no exception.  Seeing yourself in a coffin and then your head turning into a skeleton can spook anyone!  I think KLS screams much better than that dream scream.  It didn't even sound scary.  Seems Barnabas is causing Maggie to have dreadful dreams, setting her up for later.

My first choice is Barnabas because he's my favorite character, vampire or human. He takes his time, his actions always apologizing for having to do what he must to survive and he does it with sex appeal.  My second choice is Angelique.  Her attraction for Barnabas and control over him is very sexy. She had it coming, to see what Barnabas had been through and develop some empathy.  I'm not sure she learned anything from that.  But she was great.  Tom makes me laugh and Dirk is just vengeful.  I think all the vampires took blood to stay alive, killing being the by-product of the act.  Wasn't it only Dirk who took pleasure in killing because he was revenging Laura. And his methods of killing was by others doing it for him.  He bit people just to control them.  Megan felt free from any restrictions others placed on her.  She was a short-lived vampire anyway.  Roxanne was scary and took her first victim who was the same sex. [spoiler]I never could guess who bit Maggie and thought maybe it was Barnabas. When we found out it was Roxanne, I was fabbergasted.  It was a great surprise![/spoiler] I found that added mystery to the story and rather sexy.  She was a modern vampire from the previous century.  ;)[/color]

Since this is my first poll, I'm making it simple.  ;D  It's all about vampires: who is your favorite and are you one of those fans who dreams about being bit by that "sexy" vamp?  If not, that's ok, you're probably one of the sane people who just loves DS.  [vampy]
