Current Talk '15 II / Re: Grant Douglas/Quentin Collins
« on: August 31, 2015, 11:13:03 AM »
There are two audio stories released by Big Finish Productions (titled "The Darkest Shadow" and "The Haunted Refrain") which explain how Quentin lost his memory and why he began using the Grant Douglas name.

Current Talk '15 I / Re: Sam Hall commenting on another writer

Interesting, the Dark Shadows Every Day blog frequently hails Sam Hall to be series' best writer, and Ron Sproat to be nothing more than a time serving hack.

Current Talk '14 II / Re: One of 1840's Problems
« on: December 08, 2014, 03:20:27 PM »
For what it is worth, Big Finish Productions released an audio story (titled “Dress Me in Dark Dreams”) featuring Edith (with Terry Crawford reprising the role) set at the halfway point between 1840 and 1897 (the opening narration gives a year of 1874). In this story the character is stated to be both Gabriel’s wife and Judith’s grandmother. How she survived her apparent death in 1840 isn’t revealed. Maybe she only appeared to die in 1840? You guys may not consider these stories to be a legitimate continuation but the Big Finish writers do go out of their way to keep them in continuity with the original series.

Current Talk '14 I / Re: Who's idea was it to turn Curtis' dream into a soap?
« on: April 20, 2014, 10:56:15 AM »
As far as I understand it, Curtis was friends with Leonard Goldberg, who was Vice President of Daytime Programming at ABC at the time, to whom the idea was pitched to. So it's probably just serendipity that Dark Shadows happened to be a soap. I'm sure if Curtis' contact had been in prime-time it would have been made as a prime-time show.
There's an interview with Goldberg on one of the DVD sets, comes across as a real nice person. I love how he refers to Barnabas as 'Uncle Barnabas'. Something tells me he's thinking on the lines of Uncle Fester.
