Title: Dark Shadows on Chiller
Post by: DLA75 on May 03, 2009, 11:10:59 PM

I read that Chiller has been airing DArk Shadows marthons from time to time. Ver few cable companies have Chiller and I have all the Episodes on DVD no rel need to get a dish sill i hope if they keep running DS Comcast adds Chiller one day.

A friend of mine just told me a couple of days ago that she and her husband are now watching DS on Chiller.  I thought she said it was on regularly rather than a marathon...I could be wrong though.  Too bad more people don't have Chiller...sounds kind of interesting since I heard they were also running Beauty & the Beast for awhile - another little avenue I don't mind strolling down from time to time.

Hey, when I wrote my last post DS was not coming up in a schedule search, but now it does (and that's just rude)-- there was a marathon last weekend and it starts over again with Ep 1 on Sunday, June 14.

Cool beans!  Even though I don't get Chiller it's good to know the show is running somewhere.  Hopefully my friend and her hubby will get hooked and enjoy the show all over again.  I know at least he was an original fan.  Always good to have more of the old gang back in the fold!  [ghost_wink]

Are we talking about the original show??? I just got off the hook with DirecTV and they assured me a connection to Chiller even though I am moving out in the woods.

Well, according to my friend - it sure sounds as though she's talking about the original.  I asked her where Chiller was episode-wise and she described the seance with Vicky and the governess from the past switching places.  I pointed to my calendar and said oh, there she is (photo of Alexandra) and she recognized her.

Chiller has been airing the 12 episode 1991 mini-series.  They also ran HoDS and NoDS in the Fall.  Here is their schedule with Search engine:

Rather than differentiating between Alexandra and Joanna Going, how about showing her photos of Frid and Cross?

You know what is funny is I liked the 91 series when it first came out but after watching it a few times on Chiller I realize I don't really like it as much anymore. Nothing beats the original.

Yes, I'm sure she'd see a bigger difference (Frid vs. Cross).  I guess true fans are the ones who pickup on the fine points.   [ghost_blink]
