Betsy Durkin's Vicky is like Diana Walker's Carolyn. Both are tougher than the original characters, so I like them better than the original characters - but they're both wrong in Dark Shadows. When Vicky said "Please let me go" (or something like that) as Nicholas hurt her, it sounded wrong, because this tough Vicky wouldn't stoop to implore.
Maggie said that she couldn't imagine Collinsport without Nicholas. What a perspective! Here we are, thinking Barnabas is the most important character, or Elizabeth is, or Julia is - but for Maggie they're all beside the point: Nicholas is the heart of Collinsport for her.
What did Nicholas do with the coffin in which Tom was staked? It was quite a fancy model, and now here's Tom in this cut-rate homespun job. Tom was a handyman; give him half a chance and I'm sure he could have made something much better-looking for himself. Bigger, too. One look at Don Briscoe squeezed into that box, and Jonathan Frid should have never again complained about his coffin being too small.
