Current Talk '03 II / Strange Predicament
« on: September 24, 2003, 10:57:05 PM »
i got very hooked on dark shadows a while ago but some unfortunate circumstances caused me to miss a large chunk of ds in the months of april and may of 03.  I had seen the series from pre barny episodes up until that point - and this was my first viewing of it - i made a decision to halt my viewing of the series right around that point in may wheni could again view the show because i had missed so much of the show - a month really - and as this was my first time thru, i wanted a nice continuous experience.  so anyways, long story short, i want to resume my viewing when the show starts all over again - when all 1300 or so episodes have been played and they start again from the very beginning.  any idea when this might be?


there is a void in my life that only barny can fill :o :o :D ;)

Current Talk '02 II / How much longer will this go on????
« on: August 07, 2002, 10:34:08 AM »
How much longer until the Adam storyline is over. ::)I HATE this storyline. :'(  Believe it or not, i actually thought the experiment was going to work today and eve would be alive finally.

Apparently i am very naive.

Current Talk '02 II / Am i the only person here annoyed with Jeff Clark?
« on: August 03, 2002, 12:32:23 PM »
I didn't particularly like him in the 1795 flashback as peter bradford, but now as jeff clark he is horrible.  He always seems to be irascible and moody, and is seldom friendly to anyone on the show. Actually i am holding back - i can't stand watching him!  LMAO.  I can't wait till he is off the show.  

In the looks department i guess he is ok looking if you are into the nordic look.  Is he supposed to be sexy on the show? LOL -  cuz i am just not seeing that working for me at all.  I think Nicolas Blair or Prof Stokes have a better chance at that - lmao!.!! ;D

Current Talk '02 II / A Hard One - Best Actor(ess) on DS????
« on: July 22, 2002, 11:39:00 AM »
Well, i know this is hard, and it is utterly hilarious and inappropriate for me to start this topic when i haven't seen the whole series yet, but i still want to.  ;)  So for me, i suppose for only the first half of the series, the best actor/actress on the series is John Karlen.  Willie came to Collinsport with Jason McGuire, later to be changed drastically when Barnabas bites him and makes him his slave.  The way Karlen brought this transformation to fruition really does something for me.  And now with his return, he continues to show that interesting new side of Willie Loomis as a sort of kind, mellower guy who doesn't want to do naughty things any more-or at least as much.  Karlen always has such intensity onscreen, and never seems to dip into overacting, as some of the other actors do.  I was able to meet him at this year's festival and it was a real treat.  

Runner Up - Lara Parker
Always intense, she seems to play the part just right, as an outwardly irresistably charming and beautiful woman one moment, and a monstrosity the next.  I think she is very good at using her facial expressions to convey feeling and meaning.  She plays the two sides so well, the good and the bad, that although she is such a wretch for all the bad things she has done, i still feel sorry for her.  I especially think her moments with barnabas in 1795 were a highlight of her abilities.

Current Talk '02 II / Where is Tom's Coffin located???
« on: July 21, 2002, 12:16:10 PM »
I don't remember them showing it as part of Nicolas' house or attached to Collinwood.  This may not matter, but it has been bothering me. >:(

Current Talk '02 II / A Strange Question Perhaps..........is Barnabas sexy?
« on: July 18, 2002, 10:42:54 AM »


This question is mostly for the ladies. ;)

Ok, he(Jonathan Frid) isn't classically handsome with his hook nose, bug eyes, and weird ears(if u disagree with this description - im sorry - didnt mean to offend anyone), but for some reason, when u put it all together, to me there is sexiness there.  Maybe his voice has alot to do with this, or the way he carries himself, i don't know, but it works for some reason.

Current Talk '02 II / This is complicating things alot isn't it?
« on: July 17, 2002, 11:58:10 AM »
That is, making Tom Jennings a vampire in todays episode.  Granted we did not see the transformation, but i think i see this coming.  I understand that this was necessary because Tom knew info on Nicolas, damaging info, and he just couldn't be left free.  But with 2 vamps, there will have to be competition for feeding between Angelique and Tom.  Also, Tom will have to be "coffined" in a secure location.  Will nicolas use his house for this purpose?

I understand why it had to be done, but things are going to get more complicated.  Also, people will wonder where Tom has gone. ?!?

Current Talk '02 II / Special question to all the veteran DS fans!
« on: July 15, 2002, 11:23:15 AM »
I am seeing the series for the first time, and am wondering if the show is just as entertaining for the remainder of its run.  Do the storylines that follow pique interest?  I certainly hope so, because i really have enjoyed DS so far, i enjoy it loads, and i would be sad if it became less interesting or entertaining.  So basically, without telling me any future plot details, do the future episodes hold up to the ones we have seen recently on scifi - i think it is about 1-560 or something - almost at the halfway point.  

*Hoping for the Best* :D

Current Talk '02 II / The Adam Storyline - your thoughts?
« on: July 15, 2002, 11:02:06 AM »
Well, i am a newbie, so this is my first time seeing these episodes.  I have to be totally honest that i have been rather bored with the adam storyline.  It doesn't do much for me at all.  I was so happy to see angelique return - her presence was needed  to spice things up a bit.  And now with Joe as the next victim - this is getting very exciting.  I think joel crother's last appearance is in 68, no?  He was on track to marry maggie - so either they must have a big break up fight, or he dies.  

it is too frankenstein for me - yuck

BTW -  dont spoil anything for me if u can ;D

Calendar Events / Announcements '02 II / Festival Purchases anyone?????
« on: July 08, 2002, 11:18:15 AM »
I wasted alot of money for me!

This was my first festival, and i bought 2 books - the DS Almanac as well as Shadows on the Wall.  I bought the poster they were selling at the Kathryn Leigh Scott Booth and got the free poster MPI  gave out when i bought a computer mouse - $8 and Barnabas DS Shirt($15)  The above two books and poster were around $48 all together if i remember correctly.  Also, i bought 2 glossy photos for $6 a piece - a bargain i thought - of Barnabas and Vicki.  So that was another $12.  So all together - around 80-90 dollars spent i didnt have because i dont have a job.  Im a 19 yo college student btw - if u r wondering why i have no job :o

I am way cheap generally, but i turned into a shopping whore! ;D
