Current Talk '05 II / 1897: Favorite Part/Sub-plot
« on: July 22, 2005, 10:01:27 PM »
Hello,

I have been so busy with life the past months and just finished Set 14, I think 1897 is really getting interesting right now.[spoiler]Minerva Trask has just been poisoned and Dirk Wilkins is a vampire.[/spoiler] I just ordered Set 15 and was wondering if 1897 gets more interesting from here on or stays the same.

What are your alls favorite parts?

Current Talk '04 II / Grayson Hall's Hair (A Question For Her Legion)
« on: August 29, 2004, 02:07:58 AM »
Hey all,

First of all I think it is great that there are such cool fans and  character groups out there. Speaking of Legions, anyone care to start a Victoria Winters Legion? (lol)

Anyways I was looking at the caps from Night Gallery (what year was this episdoe?) and I happened to notice that someone said Grayson wore a wig? Did Grayson wear wigs during her "Dark Shadows" days? Did she ever show her real hair (did she have any? lol)

Thanks,

Shane

-Also I am trying to find another show to buy on DVD, so far I only am collecting Dark Shadows (watching every episode for the first time, have Sets 5-13 so far) and I am interested in other shows out there I haven't seen. Does anyone know of any? Does anyone suggest I get Night Gallery?

Current Talk '04 II / DVD Set Packaging- Sets 1-10
« on: July 28, 2004, 01:44:09 AM »
Hey,

I was wondering if they are now reselling the packaging for these sets, as I have not purchases Sets 1-4, has anyone recently bought Sets before 11?

I wonder if they are distributing these Sets in the same packaging before Set 11.

Also, anyone purchase Set 13 yet? I just ordered it, I hope I enjoy 1897!.

Calendar Events / Announcements '04 II / Awesome Dark Shadows Site!
« on: July 15, 2004, 07:33:00 PM »
Hey,

I happened to visit a site in which the webmaster makes Dark Shadowa promos as if the show still existed today. The editing is great.

Also there are only three right now, but he promises to do more as time goes by. The link is below, visit it.

You will also need Real Player to view these clips.

Current Talk '04 II / Dark Shadows DVD Set 12: The Best To Own!
« on: July 02, 2004, 09:31:38 PM »
Hey,

I just wanted to let everyone know that if you are contemplating on which Set to buy out of the current available (1-12), the latest is the one to purchase.

The quality is great but the episodes are fantastic. I am seeing everything for the first time as I watch it and I have to admit, the last episodes of disk 4 were frightening.

Sets 5-12 are the only ones I have right now and I was deciding whether or not I should continue since Victoria is no longer on the show, but this current Set has definetly made the decision for me.

If the 1897 Flashback is anything like the later part of the Haunting of Collinwood/Devil Tots Storyline, then I will be thrilled.

Take my word, buy this Set!

Current Talk '04 I / Episodes 1-200 are Kinescopes?(attn: Darren)
« on: May 16, 2004, 03:03:01 AM »
Hello,

I am confused, so the Pre=Barnabas episodes are only available in kinescope form? They lost the early episodes? If this is the case, does anyone know how the episodes will look on DVD when they are released?

Hey,

Just wanted to say you have an awesome site. I was looking at your episode guide and I noticed that they look very clear. Are these captures from the DVD's? I just hope when (if they ever) release the pre- Barnabas episodes, they look as good as they do on your site.

Current Talk '04 I / Dark Shadows DVDs: Help! (Attn: anyone)
« on: April 15, 2004, 02:26:31 AM »
I have been thinking about this for a long time now. As I watch my DVD's I seem to notice several small horizontal, parallel lines at the left side of the screen when it switches to a certain camera angle. Does anyone else see this as well?

Also are the original episodes like this or is it because or they are on DVD's. The quality is high on the DVDs but I would like to know if what I am seeing is also on the original episodes they show on television and the ones on VHS.

Thanks

Current Talk '04 I / Dark Shadows: DVD or Video?
« on: April 14, 2004, 02:40:33 AM »
I have bought Sets 5-11 so far and have enjoyed seeing these episodes for the first time. One thing I wonder is if the MPI Videos have the same glitches and lines at the left side of the screen as the DVD's do.

I personally think DVDs have better quality and will last longer, but does anyone else think the DVD's show less quality than the Video Cassette? I just hope that these DVD's are the best quality possible.

Current Talk '04 I / The Mysterious Victoria Winters: Betsy Durkin
« on: April 13, 2004, 09:07:14 PM »
(May contain spoilers)

I am currently watching disk #2 of Set #11 and have just watched the last episode of Alexandra Moltke (very sad to see her go) and have seen the new "Vicki". She isnt a horrible actresss, but she just isnt Victoria Winters.

Does anyone know who Betsy Durkin is, as in previous roles? I know she only lasted on the show for 10 episodes, but why was she chosen for Victoria? Also doesn anyone know why they didnt just write Victoria off instead of try to recast the role. It would have been better to see Victoria leave with Alexandra (though I have yet to see the final appearence of Victoria as I have not seen any of these episodes after)

Current Talk '04 I / Dark Shadows: Skin Exposed?
« on: February 22, 2004, 03:58:11 AM »
Hey,

I know this may be a weird thing to discuss, but I see the soaps now (dont watch any). Everytime I flip a channel and there is a soap, a male is shirtless or the female is in lingerie. I know Dark Shadows was a 60's show, but in the show's entire history did any of the main male/female characters ever expose skin?

Current Talk '03 II / Favorite Set and Music
« on: December 28, 2003, 02:10:14 AM »
I must admit my favorite set is the Collinwood Drawing Room. I like when the characters talk and interact in that room, it makes you feel like you are really there in in Collinwood. My favorite music is the one they use wil Barnabas and Julie a lot, its eerie, dont know the name of it though.

What are your alls?

Shane
