Besides being an ahole criminal, he had to be a complete idiot. Seaview is practically a stone house with a slate roof. He'd have a better chance of burning down Mt. Rushmore.  Still , it could have done enough damage to the wood flooring and stairs on the interior to make repairs impracticle. We have to be thankful that no one was injured, the fire alarm and sprinkler system worked like they were supposed to and the moron was arrested.  Im for turning him over to Garth Blackwood. Lol.

Bob, Amanda's followup novel to Smithy is Webster and it also just came out this month. When she wrote the original story, it was too large and had to be split into 2 volumes.

A few more details have been put out.

Mary Oleary is helping Jim Pierson organize the event and is reaching out to local fans to help volunteer. Anyway, its going to be a 2 day event held at the Burbank Marriott in July.  Day 1 will be the memorial for Lara free of charge. Day 2 will be celebration of Frid with Q & A with the DS stars, theatrical performance and luncheon.  Price tba.  More details to follow.

Calendar Events / Announcements '24 I / Dark Shadows Remembrance Weekend
« on: February 20, 2024, 05:18:40 AM »
I just happened to come across this announcement on a Dark Shadows News facebook page.

The Dark Shadows actors will join together with fans this summer in Southrrn California to remember Lara Parker with a special memorial event open to the public at no cost, in addition to a gathering celebrating the 100th anniversary of Jonathan Frids birth and a Dark Shadows banquet. Full details will be announced soon.

I was beginning to wonder if this was going to happen due to the length of time already but certainly glad that it is.  I do hope some sort of tribute will occur during the banquet for the other Dark Shadows alumni who have passed since the last Dark Shadows Festival including John Karlen, Diana Millay, Denise Nickerson, Geoffrey Scott, Robert Rodan, Chris Pennock, Mitch Ryan, Bob Cobert and Sy Tomashoff.

S P:  I've warned you before Mr. Collins ..Having a Dick Tracy Crimestoppers Set doesnt allow you to make arrests. Take off the handcuffs now!

V: All that hash slinging certainly gets results.

R: Devlin, I'm not giving you five... The judge already did.

S P: Burke, I appreciate you trying to pick us up a couple chicks..but everybody in your little black book is either married with kids now or moved away. Thanks anyway.

I loved Call to Glory..and Police Squad certainly deserved a better fate.  A couple shows I liked that didnt make the list were Tales of the Gold Monkey and Beverly Hills Bunz.  Some other shows I saw that rightfully didnt make the list were Chicken Soup , Gloria, Mr. President and After Mash.

or with Max at the diner from 2 Broke Girls. She got Caroline up to speed pretty quickly.. so why not Vicki.

While browsing thru Freevee, I came across a silly show from the 70's called Celebrity Bowling. Teams of 2 celebrities would bowl against each other for some really rinky dink prizes for audience members whose names were drawn.Low and behold Kate Jackson appeared on the show.

Kate was not the worst celebrity bowler on the series ( I think that had to be Richard Deacon),  but she wasn't far from it.  Unlike some of the celebs who goofed around, Kate tried to take it very seriously. I think she only did it because she was teamed with Edward Albert ( who was pretty bad also) who happened to be her real life partner at the time. It was played best ball like golf and they lost bowling an 87.  Unlike nearly all the celebs who appeared in 2 shows,  Kate only did 1. Wonder why..lol.

All 3 seasons are on Freevee and she appears in Season 2 episode 28.  Havent seen his yet, but Conrad Bain also appears on the show.
