Julia: "You don't have to do a thing if you need me, Barnabas- not a thing.  Oh, maybe just whistle- you  know how to whistle, don't you Barnabas?  You just put your lips together-  and blow!"

Roger Davis: Lela, please!  I promise not to ham it up any more and steal scenes from Jonathan- now, let go!!

Don Briscoe (thinking): I don't get it: I'm better looking, but he gets all the girls!  Either I change my agent or start using Hai Karate......

Grayson (and the audience) recoiled in horror as Thayer David steaked naked across the set!!

There's something about 1840 that hasn't been discussed in any forum or fan publication.  It's this:  I've always felt that each of the three major trips to the past spotlighted a particular character.  1795 told of Barnabas' past, and 1897 was Quentin's story.  But 1840 could've been easily subtitled All About Angelique, for it is in this story that her past (or more accurately her past life as Miranda duVal) is explored as is her destiny in regard to her relationship with Barnabas.  There were many juicy scenes for Lara  climaxing in that unforgettable final moment with Barnabas.  We saw the character at her best and worst in this time period, and it just seems to me that she dominated the events of 1840.

Julia: "You beast- you beast!!  That's it- take me, abuse me, make me write bad prescriptions!"

Carolyn:"Well, I've done my binging- now it's time to purge!"

Prof. Stokes: "Now Adam, this is the perfect time to use a handkerchief."
