"Dark Shadows DVD Collection Complete Series Collection 1 - 26
With its alluring tales of gothic mystery and supernatural intrigue, Dark Shadows became the most popular daytime series of all time during its run on ABC from 1966-71. Much like the show's character Barnabas Collins, a guilt-ridden vampire released from his chained coffin after nearly 200 years, Dark Shadows retains an immortality that time steadfastly fails to erode

is anyone watching on Hulu?

i have not but i keep seeing people refer to it in terms of "seasons". that they are watching "season 13" or "season 8" and so forth.

in addition to it being a daily soap that doesn't have "seasons" it only ran for five years. so how are they getting into such high numbers? i'm wondering if they are trying to coordinate each episode block with corresponding DVD number? in effect the episodes in DVD volume 13 being "season 13". i really can't think of any other way they are determining these numbers.  [santa_huh]

It's very perplexing. Maybe "season" is the only concept that the target audience can understand. I don't watch Survivor but according to what they have advertised, they are on season 33. It hasn't been on that long, has it? [a_xmas] [a_xmas]

i believe Survivor and some other "reality" shows have a summer and winter "season". two per year. so i suppose at this point it could have been on about 16 years. 2000 sounds about right for the launch of "reality".

but with DS who knows?

I suspect you're probably right.
