I know what DVD collection you are referring to and I have to go back and watch that particular interview because I cannot simply remember what he said about aimless gothic the first year of the series. It didn't even start off as Gothic initially..at least not from my perspective ..it became more Gothic like with the seaweed guy and all that and then Laura and the burning phoenix etc. So aimless no.. maybe planned ..what to do to keep the show on the air another 13 weeks kinda mentality? As far as Joan Bennett, she was such a strong figure in the series [spoiler]up until I felt Rev Trask made potty of her senses. She came back though and walled him up. She was senseless too with the Leviathans but then again she came back strong as ever.[/spoiler] I do think she did become slightly of a backdrop actress. Its a shame though. She was after all Mistress of Collinwood and seemed to me to command a strong sense of respect and acknowledgement. Her mere presence often kept ol Barn in line too!
