MAGGIE: Oh, Chris - your haircut is even worse than Amy described.

CHRIS: Stick around, Maggie - you'll see some hair growth that makes Chewbacca look like a troll doll.

I always enjoyed the groovy kaleidoscope effect when someone was starting to have the Dream Curse. But once the dreamer started opening the doors (a la "Let's Make A Deal") it got a bit cheesey - especially that overused skull with the bulging eyes.

81. You begin each day by reciting a "voice over" of what transpired in your life the day before. (And it's severe when you preface it with, "My name is Victoria Winters...")

GRAYSON: Damn, I'm stunning in green - so glad we went to color.

At the time Nicholas relieved Angelique of her powers, Elizabeth was stashed away at Wyndecliff. If Liz snapped out of her obsession at that point, figure the powers that be at the sanitarium wanted to keep her there for observation (no one seemed to get sprung from that place unless Julia Hoffman signed the pink slip, or the patient escaped... and shortly after Cassandra's demise, Liz wisely opted to bolt... traipsing through the woods in a blue velvet Ohrbach's number - Joan Bennett looked less like a mental patient and more like an Acamedy Awards presenter).
Fans seem to dislike the "Liz buried alive" storyline - which I hear Dan Curtis concocted to give Joan some extra time off to do a play - but I always thought the crescendo of that plot (with Carolyn, Barnabas, Julia and the werewolf in the mausoleum) was very tense and exciting. And of course, the sight of Julia sticking her head into Liz's coffin in hopes of hearing a heartbeat was priceless.

It's also interesting that Chris and Amy never got to acknowledge their Collins family blood ties. Technically, they were Jenny and Quentin Collins' great grandchildren. Around 1970, before the parallel time story began, I believe Quentin comforted Chris over passing the werewolf curse onto him, but it was a fleeting scene in the woods that deserved more airtime and poignancy.

Just had a thought: wouldn't it have been juicy if Chris had a secret affair with Elizabeth Stoddard?! And then have Carolyn discover the two of them in a clench?!  Soap operas always go for the "mother and daughter sharing the same man" angle, but DS missed the opportunity.

Hope it was a special one for you, Heather, for you are indeed special! You put the "Ha" in "Hall" (as in Grayson) and always bring us new dimensions of her beauty and verve, as well as those of your own.
Love, Sandor

ANTHONY GEORGE: (thinking to himself) Mitch Ryan must have drank heavily while he played this dull part! Maybe they'll want me over at "Search For Tomorrow" someday. At least no one gets bitten on that show.

JULIA: Maggie's gone back to Wyndecliff, and Mrs. Stoddard has put me in charge of you and David. Now get upstairs and do your homework before I get trigger-happy.

AMY: I've heard of governesses without their estrogen before, but this is over the top, Dr. Hoffman!

It just occurred to me.....
It's pretty shameful the way we talk about Don Briscoe -- as a mere sex object....piece of meat....hunk of gorgeousosity. (huh?)
It's so hard NOT to though.  He was just too adorable for his own good, IMHO.   :)

Truer words were never spoken, Constance-
Don was sort of the male version of Marilyn Monroe on Dark Shadows: naturally good looking, sexy, impulsive, vulnerable, self-absorbed but sensitive, acting style was either appreciated or abhorred, and ultimately his personal issues overwhelmed his career - all just like Marilyn! Expected him to sing "Silver's Not A Wolf's Best Friend" if there was ever a musical version of DS (but that's for another thread).
