Title: Celebrity DS Fans....Who are they?
Post by: David on May 30, 2011, 04:05:19 PM
We know that Burton & Depp are fans, plus Madonna has admitted to her love for DS.
Who else? I seem to recall that Oprah & Jackie Onassis were among the show's viewers.
Who else? Anyone recall?

Stephen King, right. Around 1995 TV Guide reported that he installed a satellite dish in his somewhat isolated Maine home so he could watch DS on Sci Fi!
Thanks.

Isn't Whoopi Goldberg a fan too?
And Rosie O'Donnell?

Jean Simmons admitted to being a fan when she signed on for the 91 series, said she watched the original with her kids.

Read that Joanne Woodward was also a fan.  Perhaps Quentin Tarrantino?

Welcome, Uncy Rog.   In Gilmore Girls, two characters are sitting watching DS, and Lorelai says she loves the part where Barnabas has Maggie locked up.   I presume this means Amy Sherman-Palladino and/or Daniel Palladino, the writer/producers, are fans.

Just learned that Hillary Bailey Smith, who played Nora on One Life to Live, was a Dark Shadows fan as a kid. One of her biggest thrills was getting to work with Marie Wallace when Marie did a guest shot on One Life a few years ago.
