The first storyline, all 124 episodes of "Dark Shadows Captions", the comedy photo-novel re-telling of the entire series is online in toto [Insert Wizard of Oz joke here].  No more only getting two episodes a week and having the old episodes disappear behind you.

I haven't released any more yet past this first storyline.  I've still got this mad idea that the whole thing might make a good subscription book on Kindle or something if it could only be licensed.  I'm joining Crazi Jenny in the Tower Room tomorrow.

Episode 665 of Dark Shadows Captions, the DS photonovel that's closed-captioned for the comedy impaired is now online.  And as long as you're going to have to deal with a tongue-in-cheek Dark Shadows when the Depp movie comes out, here's your chance to start getting used to it now.

Previously, Barnabas wished himself back to 1796 to save Vicki #3 from hanging, and hopefully to get a date with her afterwards.  Failing to do this, and unable to make a deal with the Devil, he made one with Angelique instead.  Despite having Angelique on his side, Vicki went to the gallows and got hanged.  ("Ohhhh, you wanted me to SAVE her!")  All appears to be lost, but if it were, the story would be over, which it isn't.  Is there such a thing as life after death on Dark Shadows?  Not much suspense in that question, but read this week's episode anyway.

Something different this week, and feedback is requested.  Having reached the halfway point in the Burke Story, we're going to celebrate with a short hiatus, and do the 1796 Mini-Story (Episodes 661-666), one episode at a time.

This Week - Episode 661:  Barnabas tells Julia what happened in Episode 459 (of couse the Barnmeister isn't geeky enough to use actual episode numbers), thanks to a liberal helping of stock footage.  People who are very familiar with the series probably know what's going on here.  Vicki has disappeared into the past with Peter Bradford, and been executed for witchcraft.  Barnabas and Julia find her tombstone (in the cemetery, not a pizza), and Barnabas resolves to go after her and change time.

People very familiar with the series probably know the backstory here without any explanation.  People less familiar might need a little explanation (or a lot).  And there are several caption-specific jokes that even people who know the series won't understand (like why is Nathan an Ensign rather than a Lieutenant?) 

That's why I need Feedback.  I'll probably leave these 6 episodes up permanently, but they don't have an introduction page yet to explain what needs explaining.  I need to write one, so I need people to tell me what makes sense and what doesn't.  What needs more explanation? 

One other thing, I took the time to re-arrange these files so they read left to right, top to bottom.  Reading it this way looks wrong to me after all this time, but will probably look right to everyone else.

A special feature this week.  In addition to the comedy version, we also present Episode 42 with the original dialogue, as broadcat. The laughs are pretty sparse in this version, but it may have some kind of interest

A new feature has been added.  Selected captions have a "Speaker" icon in them, which, when clicked, will play a .wave file from the original show that roughly corresponds with the caption dialogue.
