Current Talk '02 II / Re: Oh No.....not Betsy Durkin!!!!!!

I have a friend who is a fairly casual Dark Shadows fan, who, without any prodding at all from me, dislikes Betsy Durkin as VW and reasons that she was hired simply because she could fit into Alexandra Moltke's wardrobe...[grinb]

Hey, wait a minute! He might just be onto something!

And we can't forget Angelique Bouchard Collins [who became Cassandra] Blair Collins [back to Angelique] Collins DuVal DuBois Rumson [then, going back in time, Valerie] Collins [and, finally, Miranda] DuVal!

Yikes!

That's enough to make my poor little head spin!

Not that it's on all that straight in the first place...

An incredible concept and strong character work! And it was very cool to include good ol' Jason McGuire...

Way to go, Luciaphil.

If I had a hat, I'd doff it to you, so instead you get one of these:

Excellent work!

I used to live in Austin--the Bat Capitol of Texas!

My apartment was near the Congress Avenue bridge, located downtown; people gathered every day at sundown to watch the bats leave their day perch under the bridge and fly off into the night!

Actually, bats are really pretty harmless and were credited in Austin with keeping the mosquito population way down--along with any number of other annoying and destructive insects...

Today when Maggie went up to Vicki's room I expected her to say "Who the hell are you?" when she walked in the door and saw her on the bed.

I thought the women would commiserate over their bizarre and awful love lives:

MAGGIE: Hey, New Vicki...whatcha been up to?

NEW VICKI: Jeff realized he was Peter Bradford so we got married at 3 this morning. Then we went to the Collinsport Inn, but the desk clerk was dead, so we just picked a room and took it. We drank warm champagne, I gave him a cheap engraved Timex, then he disappeared back into 1795. And you?

MAGGIE: I married Nicky Blair in a Black Mass ceremony where I was anoited with the blood of the owl, the raven, and the bat. I wore this horrible dress and veil and robin-blue pumps. Then Nicky was sucked back down into Hell in a fireball.

NEW VICKI: Geez...

MAGGIE: Yeah...

NEW VICKI: Think we'd be better off as lesbians?

MAGGIE: It couldn't be any worse...

NEW VICKI: Lock the door. And don't tell Carolyn. She'll wanna be in on it.

It seems to me as if the cast of Gilligan's Island has been the most vocal about not getting syndication money, which must really be hard on them--considering how long those reruns have been around. IIRC, Dawn Wells and Russell Johnson have both said that no one back then knew TV would be what it is today...

Sad for them, considering that, from what those two cast members have said, Jim Backus pretty much went through his money trying to maintain his remaining health at the end of his life.

The only guy who seemingly knew the power of TV during its infancy was Desi Arnaz, who, in 1951, insisted on retaining ownership of I Love Lucy. Of course, CBS thought the show would be a flop, so they gladly agreed.

'You should take a Senative'. I didn't spell the last word right, someone help me out here!


You're close, Days: the word is "sedative". :)

I also like Nelly Furtado a whole bunch! [thumb]

Or the beating Harry got from Adam for that silly stunt!
