Current Talk '02 II / Re: Mrs. Findlay Has Died...but...

In the Summer of 1970 when Gerard and Daphne are haunting the mansion, no one remembers the haunting of Quentin and Beth at all.  The writers realized by that time, they shouldn't have happened at all.

After not seeing Betsy Durkin for about 8 episodes, they should have used Carolyn Groves here instead.  CG is going to be seen very shortly anyway.  I wonder whey they brought Betsy Durkin back for this one episode.

It was never mentioned at all, however, Once Barnabas returns from 1897 and with Quentin's ghost never having existed, Madame Findlay (and Ezra Braitwaite) should still be alive and kicking.

Patty McCormack went on to co-star as next door neighbor Ann Brooks on "The Ropers" in 1979.

What they could have done is send Vicky away for a while and have her return in a month or two and concentrate on Chris and Quentin in the meantime.

Betsy Durkin probably thought she made it big time when she got this part...I feel sorry for her.

Current Talk '02 II / Re: Tale of Two Jennings
« on: September 02, 2002, 08:26:42 PM »
This is the Jennings/Collins connection:

Quentin and Jenny Collins have a daughter, Lenore.
Lenore is adopted by Mrs. Fillmore.
Lenore marries and has a daughter.
The daughter marries a Mr. Jennings.
Mr. and Mrs. Jennings have Chris, Tom, and Amy.

Mr. Jennings had a sister who married Mr. Haskell.
Mr. and Mrs. Haskell have Joe.

That is Joe's connection to Chris and shows Joe is not blood  related to Quentin.

Perhaps the actor had the actress Gloria Winters (Babs on the Jackie Gleason "Life of Riley") in mind when he said that.

Believe it or not, Betsy Durkin beat out Jacklyn Smith (then Mrs. Roger Davis) for the role of Victoria Winters.

Current Talk '02 II / OT: Ghost
« on: August 17, 2002, 01:49:01 AM »
This is pretty neat. Apparently the owners of this house had been seeing images and hearing voices for quite a while. They did some research and found that a lady once lived in the house who lost her husband during the civil war. Legend says that she used to sit at the
table and look across the fields in anticipation of her loved one returning home. He never came. So, they say she still waits. They caught this photo of what they claim to be her. This one was wild and a little spooky once you find the ghost in the picture. It took me a
few seconds to find it, but when you do, it just
stands out. Like one of those optical illusions.

To save you some time, concentrate around the table. Best not to focustoo much on one spot. Look around the table and toward the window.

Keep looking, you'll eventually see it.

Click on the link below for the picture. Best to enlarge. For an added touch turn up the volume, it's faint, but the low murmur you hear was what got the photographer's attention first.

Adam is never mentioned again until Parallel Time 1970 when Roxanne Drew is on the table in a coma and Barnabas and Julia remember the Adam experiment.

I was always surprised at how Adam is abruptly removed and unmentioned.

If RR did not ask for a raise, would they have Adam as a secondary character?  In 1897, perhaps he would have played Dirk Wilkins.

Maybe Craig Slocum was unavailable for that episode for some reason.  They didn't make an announcement on the cast change during the title sequence.

Edward Marshall, the second Harry Johnson played a young Ezra Briathwaite in 1897.

There are a few characters on DS who disappear on DS without explanation...Harry Johnson, Tony Peterson, Frank Garner, Magda, Buffie Harrington.

The most likely scenario is that Harry left Collinwood during the time Barnabas was in 1897, probably because there was nothing to do there anymore.

Current Talk '02 II / Dr. Woodard and Dr. Lang
« on: August 16, 2002, 06:12:41 PM »
I wonder what Dr. Woodard thought about Eric Lang.  The two must have know each other for many years.

Then again, Eric Lang was in town when Barnabas first around (though never meeting him then) and the attacks on women and cows drained of blood were found and the townspeople were all aware of them.  Plus, the marks on Maggie's neck and on Willie's wrist.  Perhaps Woodard had consulted Lang on the matter.  Lang at this time would have suspected a vampire but just didn't know who it was.

When Barnabas is in the hospital, it was the final piece to Lang's puzzle. Maybe the existence of a vampire in 1967 led Dr. Lang to think about finding it and using it for the experiment or even the thought of the experiment himself.
