Title: Dark Shadows and The Vampire Diaries
Post by: Mysterious Benefactor on May 19, 2010, 06:55:10 PM

If you're a fan of both, this is a must read: Dark Shadows and The Vampire Diaries (http://community.livejournal.com/cursed_iconses/16151.html)

But even if you're only a DS fan, it's still a great read for the analysis and wonderful screen captures from all the various versions of DS.

(And if you're not a fan of TVD, well, this might help to make you one...)

Amazing!  All of those side by side pictures in particular.  Watching it, it never would have occurred to me that anyone looked the same, but a lot of these resemblances are uncanny.  Also, the whole atmosphere and the way the show is done, and even the plots, seem different enough, that I really didn't compare it to DS except for the vampire and witch connections.  But as he draws similarity after similarity I was stunned.
