Interesting comments about Vicki.  Pre-Barnabas, her reason for coming to Collinwood was to unravel the mystery of her parentage.  Whatever happened to that?  While I doubt the writers wanted to give Vicki an edgy side to her personality, it might have been interesting to have her turn her attention away from finding out about her parents, to solving the mysteries surrounding Collinwood much like Nancy Drew.  Unfortunately, Vicki was the resident "nice girl" which didn't give the character much room to grow.

Current Talk '05 I / Re: Julia AND Dave Woodard: Two Victims?

Agreed.  What could she have done to prevent this tragedy?  What would have been the ramifications of her actions?  Do you think Barnabas would have let Dave Woodard live - or even Julia for that matter?  Something interesting to ponder and the reason for my posting the topic.  I know this will generate lots of lively debate.

OMG!  Is it a BAD thing when one sees dancing Easter Bunnies floating across the screen? :o

Current Talk '05 I / Julia AND Dave Woodard: Two Victims?
« on: March 27, 2005, 07:07:45 AM »
Reading some older posts, I came across a few references to Julia's murder of beloved Dr. Woodard.  It's been awhile since I've seen those eps, but I DO remember how I felt about her involvement.  Barnabas gave her no choice in the matter.  If she didn't help him, he swore to make Dave a vampire too.  Realistically, Barnabas didn't need her "help" in carrying out his plot to do away with the doctor.  However, I always believed that Barnabas's plan was to blackmail Julia into keeping her silence and continuing her treatments.  I still believe that it was Barnabas's sick way of controlling a woman whom, until that point,  he could not control.  After that, she was forever tied to him by this horrible deed.  My memory is a bit faulty here, but I seem to recall that Julia threatened to go to the police and tell all about Barnabas and the vampire attacks, but Barnabas made it clear that before the police ever got to him, HE would get HER.  Does that sound like Julia was a willing accomplice in this?  I know I'll take some heat for this, but I always thought Julia was almost as much a victim as Dave Woodard was.  Cousins?

Naturally, I would want to play the role of Julia - with a few modifications.  First, I'd burn her entire wardrobe and get thee to Calvin Klein and Carolina Herrera.  Most important, I wouldn't take any of Barnabas' crap.  I chose Julia for her brains, her confidence, her bravery, her compassion and her cheekbones!

Current Talk '05 I / DS Cancelled!
« on: March 25, 2005, 08:31:10 AM »
This is for us 'oldies' but anyone can join in.  How did you learn about the cancellation of the original run of DS?

I was in the high school cafeteria when these really annoying twins happily chirped to me that they heard DS was being cancelled.  They KNEW I was obsessed with DS.  I spent the rest of the day in a daze (well, I admit that wasn't too unusual in high school ;))  When the series ended, I tuned in the following Monday hoping to find it was all a mistake but instead I found a game show.  I kept vigil into week two without DS before I finally gave up.  And I SWORE I would never get so involved in a tv show ever again.  So, here I am forty years later still despising those nasty twins who relished delivering the bad news.  Grrr! >:(

Okay, pity party over.  Let's hear your stories!

OMG, flashback to my childhood!

Anything Motown!
The Beatles
Supremes
The Association
Fleetwood Mac (via time travel ;D)  "Rhiannon" had that DS feel to it.
Rolling Stones

Excuse me, but I suddenly feel the need to listen to some oldies and read my old 16 magazines.

Peace and luv!
