Just plain bad research then.

There was also the NODS VHS tape that said that "In the 19th Century a woman named Lara Parker was hanged as a witch."  http://vhscollector.com/movie/night-dark-shadows

Though any time any of the characters he created are used in a DS project, he (Art Wallace) must still get a credit for creating them, which is why we continue to see that credit...

Which is just about EVERYONE of any importance in the first 7 episodes of 91 Dark Shadows. I'm not sure about Julia or Sarah.

This takes me back to the 1991 when I had DS library gatherings in McAllen and various other libraries in South Texas. We tried to use 91 DS as a springboard into 1968. It was fairly successful for a few months but attendance dropped off. We started out in a fairly full exhibit room, then a smaller one, then a meeting room and finally a smaller one. I was finally told that we needed at least ten people per week in order to continue using the rooms on weekends. It was fun while it lasted.

I also remember seeing a young Joseph Gordon Levitt running around like a typical kid. Wow! Did his career ever take off. Who knew???

Did anyone remark on the meeting of the two David Collins in Lincoln? I did a search for Lincoln and nothing came up. I saw it the other day and noticed that Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Gulliver (Gully)  McGrath played Robert and Tad Lincoln and had a few scenes together. I was thinking about posting but figured it might be about 6 years too late for that. Sometimes the search function misses things. Still it was an interesting bit of casting.

In his panel, Addison Powell did express bewilderment as to why anyone remembered the show and was still interested in it. They tried to explain it to him. I don't think he was convinced.
That event was only 12 years after the cancellation of DS. Imagine if he had lived to attend the 50th anniversary Festival!

Thanks so much for posting the links, The Doctor and K9!  [snow_smiley]

It's too bad the first clip doesn't have any voice, but it was still great to see Marie's India, dressed to the nines, of course, in diamonds.
? Audio is coming through on my computer.

Plus, the Pennock episode has a Prell commercial with Lara Parker.

I'd forgotten about that!

That's cool, MB. I've never heard of any video of Marie's work as India surfacing, but who knows.
Here's a link to a clip with Marie.

This episode has Pennock. This was shown at conventions, so you might have seen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gphGlnjJ3AQ

I've posted a great deal more. I'll just leave a link to my page and anyone interested can browse through it. I have video of the show Frid gave for the volunteers at the 91 Festival. This tape came from his collection, sold to me by his family at a Festival, so it's almost certainly a 1st generation copy of the master. I doubt the  person recording it (probably Guy Haines) gave him the master tape.

There are a some magazine articles on DS. I posted elsewhere about the Night Rider pilot, starring Selby.

If anyone happens to have ever listened to the incomparable Carolyn Fox on 94HJY in Providence, I have two of her shows and will be posting more. I doubt there will be much interest, but if you liked edgy mid 90s radio, it didn't get much edgier than Carolyn Fox. She almost got arrested one April Fools day by telling people the city government was shutting down for the day. I forget the reason, but she gave the number of a competing station, 92 PROFM as the number to call with questions.

Last night, I listened to the Manhattan Shadows Technical Panel....Among the line-up was one gentleman I'd never heard of. His name was something like Max Youngham (definitely Max--Frid only said the surname once, and the tape is not good quality).
G.

I am glad I'm not the only one who had trouble with that name. I tried various spellings of the name and found no information on him.

But what in the world language are those subtitles in?!  [snow_huh]

I have no idea. I looked for that movie for years and this is the only copy I turned up. It should be out on video, but it's not.

Here's the link to Genesis of Evil. Unlike the earlier audio tapes, the quality is quite decent. It was recorded by the Festival and distributed to fans who sent them an audio tape. I believe this is the only time they had such an arrangement. I have some other recordings of Frid's shows that are of similar quality. After the first few conventions, microphones became the norm and I also replaced my tape recorder.

I'm uploading Jonathan Frid's first one man show, "The Genesis of Evil." It contains readings by the likes of Poe, Shakespeare, the anonymous author of Genesis from The Bible, as well as works of Dark Shadows fan fiction and poetry. I'll post a link later. We are on our way out to eat. Anyone who wants to access it can go to the archive links in my posts above and go back to my library page on the archive. Unless the upload fails, it should be there very soon.
