Wow, this is cool THANK YOU for posting. I'm not a Vicky fan so I'd forgotten there were two. Hope she had fun.

Is Marilyn Ross still available to ask questions? Who owns the copyright to her hubby's novels? REPRINTS? KLScott, are you listening?? REPRINTS.

I have them all on CDROM and could post them for free download but not sure if the powers that be would be thrilled with that idea. Bummer. Buy a moldy book then and sneeze every other word.

I read that people could make and sell DS stuff. Do they have to get a lisence? They can sell only at the show? What if you do artwork?

Those of us who can't attend the real DS fest could have our own virtual one.

We could all start watching a series of episodes at the same time and post after each or whatever.

I'd like to see the Barny becomes a vampire series again. I have limited VHS's.

What do you all think?

That is cool to know. But still no email to contact her and ask for other of her DS fanfics. One I was reading is not continued on the dsfanfic website.

If any others want to share their fanfic links please do! I love fanfic.

Probably the first thing I'll note is the bloops. In the same way one fondly smiles at their children for the cute things they do not because you wanna feel holier than thou. I am a fan because of the stories and such and I like the bloops too. You gotta smile and not be too serious.

I think Barny and Julia are complete idiots. I realize that the writers are at fault and they wanted to have something 'crazy' or whatever to make viewers tune in but instead they made Barny and Julia child abusers. BandJ are also idiots. ONE word would've solved it all: WINDCLIFF.

That isn't what the writers thought that the viewers would tune in for and I suppose Frid was tired of biting girls so they had to do what they could but it is still hard to watch because I hate seeing Adam abused. And it makes it very hard to make excuses for Barny. Barny fans will love him anyway because they are all having sex with him in their fantasies but that just dont gel with me. Barny is evil and that is all there is to it. I used to like Barny when I first started watchin the series, then I grew a brain and realized that all his whining that he wants to be human is only because it is inconvienient to be a vampire sometimes and he has the balls to think that he can still have all the girls he wants. The man has no compassion for anyone especially not Adam. He, as someone else said, only created Adam for his own selfish reasons. Barny is selfish and shallow. This series of episodes shows it. Now that he is free from the curse Adam has no use nor does Barny want to be responsible. AGAIN, all through DS is the theme of lack of personal responsibility. All characters show this. DS can be viewed as a moral lesson play or having valuable things to say not just silly rattling sets. I like that part of DS too but it is not why I am a fan or continue to view the series on video.

And one could say that this series of episodes shows why Barny doesn't want Julia or Magda or any challenging female: because he is a jerk that wants to control everyone and he doesn't want a challenging relationship. He wants, like Q-Man, to have no responsibilities. I mean, do you REALLY think you could stand two minutes with Josette? She must be blonde.

Julia is a terrible doctor. I am not able to believe that she is some genius blood specialist AND a psycologist. If she were so smart she'd know how to handle Adam. And put Barny in diapers.

For killing Woodard and abusing Adam and the fact she is insufferable, a bitch, and looks like Michael Jackson I don't think Julia should be allowed to have Barny. That should be her punishment.

And as for Barny...he should have to spend eternity with Angelique. Hehehe, that is punishment enough! I respect Lara Parker and certain she'd be a hoot to hang with, not on the gallows, however, I HATE Angelique. She is a bitch and a whine and I just can't watch her. She isn't evil in a way that makes you fascinated she is just a dumb blonde with powers. Even the devil can't stand her that is why she is constantly appearing...that'd be some funny fanfic. The REAL reason Angelique is on Earth is not because she wants Barny but because no one, not even the devil, wants her. She is also insulting after a while. She makes women appear stupid. She has a very teenagerish angst and dialoug which isn't unusual since a huge part of the DS audience where horny teens. Oh, bite me Barny! Cream, cream.

Barny acts like an immature teenager too at times and I LOVE the looks that Julia sometimes has on her face when he starts rambling on that he is gonna kill someone. She's his freakin' parental unit!

Man, I love Dark Shadows!

Yeah, I saw Petrified Forest that was cool. Now that you note it I remember. DV was the film I was thinking of.

I realy think you need to learn how to read.

Did I say ANYTHING that compared Lacy to Bogey acting wise? DID ANYONE? WE ARE SAYING HE LOOKS LIKE BOGEY THAT IS ALL.

And I said I do not like the film noir genre I did not say I did not like Bogey's films specifically and I am not interested in seeing them. I am sure Bogey is a fine actor I am just not interested.

If you dont like this discussion you do have the ability to read others.
