[cat] One thing I like about Dark Shadows was the slaps! But as Victoria once said, "You deserve a lot more than just a slap!" So who should have trashed the drawing room, or any other room, or perhaps the garden with the fountain---to get down DYNASTY-style!
One catfight that would have been great would be Victoria vs. Angelique. I know our Angelic-one had powers, but she wouldn't have time to cast any spells while Victoria was beating her with one of those pillows on the sofa. And I think that even Angelique would try and win a fight without resorting to magic, at least until she had a vase of flowers broken over her head.
By the same token, I also would have loved to have seen Julia vs. Angelique. Julia would have had a nice bouquet of long blonde hair before she could have even cast one spell!
Actually, out of everyone on the show, I think Grayson would have been the most likely to want to do a stunt like this. A Julia vs. Hoffman catfight would have been great, but too bad it would have to end the way it would! Can you imagine Julia and a stuntperson as Hoffman rolling around the floor of the coffin room, with Grayson trying hard not to pull the stunt person's red wig off?
The men were allowed to have fights every once in a while, but I wonder if the women would have gone through with this, or insisted on stunt-women to do the scenes? Does anyone else have a catfight they would have loved to have seen on DARK SHADOWS? [cat]

Vicki and Cassandra
Elizabeth and Cassandra
Carolyn and Cassandra
Julia and Carolyn (when Carolyn was under Barnabas' powers)
Elizabeth and Laura
Daphne and Samantha
Joanna Mills and Samantha (Samantha deserved to get bitch-slapped by both sisters!)
Beth and Amanda (I like Beth so much better! I never bought Amanda as Quentin's "true love")
-
Mrs. Johnson and anyone who dared set foot in her kitchen.

What a fun idea.. . sure Julia v Angelique. . . I think Julia in a pure physical fight would've literally wiped the floor with ole Angie.. .in any century.
How about Natalie DuPres v Joshua! or Abigail! haha!
You are right that I bet Grayson would've found this too much fun-- ;D
-
Okay, this isn't really my scene, but I am imagining Carolyn and Vicki duking it out (over Burke) in the rain on the estate, getting soaked and their clothes wet and glistening with mud.....
I better stop there
>:D

I loved it when [spoiler]Kitty as Josette went after Angelique in 1897 and started to strangle her. I would've loved to have seen an all out fur flying fight between them, no magic involved. I 'd be rooting for Kitty[/spoiler]
-
Oh definitely Julia and Angelique! I think Julia's sincere love for Barnabas would have won out over any spell Angelique might care to use. 8)
Abigail and Naomi, although Naomi was too intimidated by her, it still would have been fun to see them arguing over who was the real mistress at Collinwood.
Although there is a cool scene in 1795 when Naomi delivers a biting remark to Abigail, and I can't quote this exactly, but she says something to the effect of: "If the devil has blinded us all, why is it that he lets you in on all his secrets?"
Fabulous! ;D

I remember that the Kitty-Angelique scene was once shown at a DS Festival, and everyone cheered! Let's face it, Josette should've bitch-slapped Angelique the moment she [spoiler]found out that Angelique was going to marry Barnabas.[/spoiler] Another catifght that should've been: Jenny vs. Laura, 1897- after all, [spoiler]Laura stole Quentin away from Jenny, leaving her alone, pregnant and at the "mercy" of Edward and Judith while going insane. Remember, it was Laura (with Dirk) who set Jenny loose that final time, leading to Jenny's death and the werewolf curse.[/spoiler]
I'm surprised there wasn't one between Maggie and Carolyn after Joe had had enough of Carolyn's capricious behavior (especially where Burke was concerned) and found Maggie far more appealing.

Charles Ellis, a topic that shows how to hide the text of a storyline "spoiler" is stickied to the 1st page of the Testing 1,2,3 board. Please check it out.

I think one of the best catfights would have been a fight between Natalie Dupres and Abigail Collins in 1795. Rock 'em sock 'em!!
And for anyone who would like a funnier fight.....
How about we have a fight between two personas? Like Cassandra vs. Angelique or Miranda vs. Angelique or something along those lines! I can see it now:
SCENE
INT. COLLINWOOD - DRAWING ROOM - NIGHT
Cassandra stands, looking demented. She SLAPS herself across the face.
CASSANDRA: Angelique! I will not have you ruining my plans! Barnabas suspects that I am you anyway!
Suddenly, Cassadra's UGLY BLACK WIG FLIES OFF and Angelique's GOLDEN SUNSHINE HAIR is revealed. She SLAPS herself on the other side of the face!
ANGELIQUE: Back up hussy! That's my man!
-
Whoops, no more scenes, please.
2. ... These forums also do not accept fan fiction and such works are subject to removal.

I think it would have been great fun to see Cassandra & Julia re-enact the wig snatching scene from Valley of the Dolls!
Julia grabs Cassandra's black wig, revealing Angelique's golden curls:
As the wig gets flushed down the toilet, Julia screams:
"you can't have him! He's Mine! MINE!!!!!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!"

"Anytime you want a rematch, just whistle" - Krystle Carrington to Alexis after one of their Dynasty catfights.
Some of my choices for catfight candidates:
Maggie vs. vampire Angelique ( over Joe)
Samantha Collins vs. Joanna Mills
Samatha Collins vs. Daphne Harridge
Angelique Stokes vs. Alexis Stokes
Julia vs. PT Roxanne
Just a few possibilities.
-
From 1897 storyline: Angelique vs Laura (truly a battle of the supervixens).
1841 PT: Catherine v. Daphne ( sister squabble)
-
Sarah Collins vs. Hallie Stokes over David/Jamison...catfight of the spoiled brats!
-
Angelique schizoid catfight with herself... now we're getting somewhere.
How about Jenny, Eve, and vampire Megan Todd?
-
How about.....
Angelique and Catherine Harridge? They both look alike, yet are so different....this would be a tough call....especially since Angelique's powers were taken away from her.
With her powers, though I suspect Angelique would wipe the floor with poor Catherine.
-
1841 PT: Catherine v. Daphne ( sister squabble)
I like this one! Bramwell could have sold tickets! >:D
-

Yes, I must take my hat off to LP for her acting skills here. To go from wicked Angelique to sweet, demure Catherine so effortlessly was something! [9391] Same goes to JF in his switch from Barnabas to Bramwell. Hard to believe these characters are played by the same actors.
-
1841 PT: Catherine v. Daphne ( sister squabble)
I like this one! Bramwell could have sold tickets! >:D
LOL! That's the er...ticket!!! Bramwell: Come one! Come all! Get your tickets and see the greatest fight of all time! Watch two women who just-so-happen to look the same fight over the sexiness that is me!!! Oh hell, I'll have 'em both!

Just thought of this--
How about Abigail Collins vs. Minerva Trask. The reason? Who loves their Trask-i-poo more!

Who loves their Trask-i-poo more? Hilarious! ;D
I would say Abigail.....despite appearances I think Minerva knew Gregory wasn't the "man of God" he passed himself off as. Abigail was Trask's biggest fan....she'd go off on anyone who'd say anything bad about him.
Having said that I would love to have seen Minerva knock Abigail's lights out.... ;)

lol!! I can't wait for the action to start! Maybe they could have a cage match and be allowed only one weapon?! Abigail would choose the Bible, and Minerva.......what would she use?
-
Don't forget trhe lubrication, which is so important for the safety of everyone involved. For did not our Lord himself oil himself up to grapple with Satan in the mud pit of holy judgment.... I'm really asking, did He? I'm a little hazy on that one at the moment. It's hard to remember things when your mutton chops are on fire.

Her plum preserves. No? ^-^

Just once, I would have loved to see Liz come out of her trance, haul off and flatten Laura Collins, before retreating back into the curse Laura placed on her.
-
How about Susie the Collinsport Diner waitress (pre-Barnabas episodes) versus Maggie Evans (when she was sporting the blonde wig). Catfight AND food fight in the diner! Susie pulling Maggie's blonde wig off during the scuffle would explain KLS' sudden change of hairdo's in '66.
-
I would have loved to have seen Elizabeth beat the hell out of Jason for the hell he put her through. >:(
Though I loved [spoiler]seeing Barnabas wring Jason's worthless neck[/spoiler] I thought Elizabeth definitely had more right to seek retribution. Dang shame she had to be so passive about it. Then again, Elizabeth was never the vengeful type, which I am glad. I always regarded her with a woman with high class.

I thought Judith managed to deal with Greg in a classy enough manner.

Word! LOVE [spoiler]the phone call she makes to him to torment him that he'll die alone etc...You can see the figurative canary feathers protruding from her mouth![/spoiler] ;)

I think I would like to eliminate the element of the supernatural for these fights since those who have supernatural powers have an unfair advantage. Even if the person not so "blessed" were to get a temporary advantage and knock their block off, the supernatural creature would be able to get even later on by levelling a curse or spell on them. So let's assume that none of these people are going to use their supernatural powers and we'll have a fair fight.

Minerva and Judith over Trask (again, loser gets him!)
Megan and Carolyn over Jeb.
Roxanne (Willie's fiancee) and Maggie over Willie.

Maggie and Angelique over Quentin. (parallel time)

This reminds me of Star Trek, I can't remember the name of the episode. >:D >:D
