JOSETTE LOSING APPEAL?Dear Editiors:
I greatly enjoy After Noon TV and am happy to have found a TV magazine that is written and headlined in good taste and that appeals to an intelligent audience.
I am wondering if the writers of Dark Shadows realize that Josette has lost appeal to many D.S. viewers and has become almost a figurative character. Although she was an integral part of the story originally, it has since evolved into a more central theme in which Barnabas and Julia hold the spotlight as hero and heroine. I believe that most D.S. viewers idenitfy more strongly with these two and that their relationship should be emphasized, and that of Barnabas and Josette de-emphasized. Barnabas is living in the present now. Josette is part of his past but should not become a vaguely-defined future. Julia's love for Barnabas has already been established. Now it's time to make him deal with that love realistically. If this does not occur in the near future, I'm afraid many viewers will become frustrated and eventually disinterested. I have spoken to several people who feel this way--most of them teenagers.
Times Have Changed
Josette appearing to Barnabas and their deciding that after all this time they should let each other go. Even with KLS leaving the show, there was no need to end his obsession with her that was a major part of the way his character acted.
Hmmm, Jonah was 23 meaning he was born in 1840. Could he have been one of Gabriel & Edith's sons?
