did anyone notice on the back of the back that it says the episodes are in black & white & COLOR? i think THAT"s a misprint unless they are counting the interviews with Our "Vicki Winters" other than that i think it's funny as hell. he he

That probably refers to the special edition of episode 1 on the collection that includes the commerical spots originally aired, most, if not all, of which, were indeed in color...

I was thinking that if all the people whom Vickie meets back in 1795 resemble people she knows in 1967, why doesn't Barnabas notice those strange similarities when he wakes up in the future?  I mean, wouldn't it freak him out that Elizabeth and Roger looked so much like his mother and father, or that Dr. Hoffman was a dead ringer for the Countess Du Pres?

He might have noticed but was suave enough to not let on.  Had he been going on about that out loud, he would have been thought mad as a hatter (cf: Vicky in 1795)

Beautiful fixer upper!! 

It reminds me of a bizarre cross between the original series' Collinwood (the tower on the right mainly) and Count Orlock's house in Wisbaden in Murnau's Nosferatu....

The thing is, though {spoiler alert}, Gabriel killed Edith in 1840, so how could Grandma Edith be alive in 1897?{end spoiler}.

To look at that another way - Barnabas came back from the dead, Angelique came back from the dead, Quentin came back from the dead, Peter came back from the dead, Daphne came back from the dead.  Elizabeth was believed to be dead and was buried ...

See where I'm going with this? 

okay, one more question:   if she (viki) changed history by saving daniel, how come there was a collins family anyway, since, if daniel was killed that would have ended the family line.

I always had the impression that Vicki had simply gone through the same motions that Phyllis had.  In other words, Phyllis arrived at the  Collin's estate addled from the carriage wreck, was accepted into the family as governess and became the scapegoat of Angelieque. In gaol, law student Peter Bradford took pity on poor Miss Wicke and after the trial went badly, he helped her to escape where she then saved Daniel, was recaptured and then hanged.  Since he had taken the rap for Noah's death, he too was tried and hanged.

I think the general idea is that history is alleged to be pretty solid (none of your "treading on a butterfly in the past will destroy the future").  Broadly speaking, as long as the major events take place, the smaller details of how they happened don't matter so much.  The biggest difference probably was that Peter fell in love with Vicki, where he had not with Phyllis, believed that Vicki was from the future and that belief allowed him to find his way to here in the present (this all could have been Sarah's spirit at work).  They found each other in the present and eventually (imo with Sarah's help) both vanished into the past that Peter was a part of and that Vicki had been so entranced by.

oopsie!  Thanks for putting me right!!! 

Angelique was infuriated to learn that the Ghost of Jeremiah had _________.

I received a mailing stating that the 2008 Festival would be "celebrating the DVD release" of HODS & NODS but I cannot seem to find any other details
