All good points. I read a small paperback book about DS when I was in 5th grade (DS was alive and on the air then) and in this book there was a scene where Mr.Frid forgot his fangs and he was to bite a pretty young woman....the shooting schedule was so tight that they shot the scene anyway without the fangs. Apparently they let the audience think that the fangs would soon grow. Whether this is true or not..I do not know, but I suspect that the production schedule was very tight and fast....there was not much time for re-takes. Even today soap opera actors say that the shooting schedule is tough and is a lot of work.DS was no different.
