Hi, I checked my dvd #2 of Vol. 5. The same static/
spark sounds followed by the checkerboard pattern flashes occured in the scene you mentioned. It almost looks like there was an edit after Joshua stopped talking and when Naomi began speaking. Hope that helps!

Yes, many thanks for creating this temporary board and for the informative emails on restoring the regular board. 

What a great show the Captain had.  I remember the Magic Drawing Board gave me a few strange nightmares. Not bad nightmares, just strange.

RIP Bob Keeshan

I find Kathryn Leigh Scott & Lara Parker very sexy and yummy!     

Just a few things I've wondered about as I watch the 1795 SL.  Other than Ben Stokes, the last living person to see Angelique was Joshua. That was when he was offering her money to leave Collinsport. I think he'd left her some sums to mull over. But no-one seems to wonder about her whereabouts. Josette is found in a daze in the Old House, Suki is killed there, people seem to come and go from the house but no mention of where Anqelique has gone. When Baranabas tells Abigail that he's murdered Angelique, I half expected a "no wonder we hadn't seen her for weeks" response from his aunt. Speaking of Abigail, I would have thought she would have been inquiring the most about Angelique, wanting her to testify at Vicki's trial.

Did I miss Daniel Collins in earlier 1795 eps? Was he seen or mentioned before Millicent first spoke of her brother, when she discovered Lt. Forbes was married?

Also, I didn't understand the writers portrayal of Vicki during her trial. One moment it seemed she didn't take it seriously (which she should have, knowing the history of witchcraft in New England) and another moment she  seemed to be hysterical when she should have been calm to counter Trask's fanatical charges.

Ugh, freezing rain forecast for Saturday.      "I-cey"  a slick weekend ahead.

Has everyone on the forum seen Finding Nemo.

 I loved "Finding Nemo".  Maybe I should watch that on Saturday, not a freezing raindrop in that film.

Thanks, murph, for the welcome aboard (and congrats on your 100th post) and a welcome aboard to BenStokes (congrats on your first post)! I've really enjoyed reading everyone's introduction to Dark Shadows.

In my school it was NOT cool to watch DS, so my friend and I kept it to ourselves. 

Once I entered 7th grade, I learned the hard way (much teasing) how uncool it was to watch DS- and admit it at school. But I didn't mind as much because most of my neighborhood friends- who attended a different school- loved DS. Good thing too, as I'd often run to these friends' homes straight off the school bus in order to not miss too much of the show (my house was farthest from the school bus stop, naturally). All of us bought as much DS related magazines and merchandise as our allowances could afford (I hate thinking about what great DS memorabilia I've either lost, sold or *shudders* tossed out in the trash).

btw I think I remember "Where The Action Is", if there were go-go dancers in mini-skirts on it, I remember it. Unless I'm thinking of a different show...
