Title: TV "critical" on a today's Dark Shadows
Post by: jimbo on November 06, 2009, 03:08:14 PM

This TV critic responded to a question regarding how a new Dark Shadows would do on TV today (and not from me lol). What a critic.

I think it comes down to how Dark Shadows would be done.  To do DS now the same way it was done then would be like trying to do a new Star Trek by copying slavishly the original show--cheesy special effects, inherent sexism, etc.  Wouldn't work.
