The First Time
« on: June 04, 2003, 10:47:01 AM »
Was this the first time on DS that we actually get to see a real burial taking place? (well almost) In yesterday's epidode I was suprised to see those four zombies lifting up Quentin's coffin and lowering it into the ground to bury him!!  And they even used the lowering rope!!!   This was first believable burial scene I think I've ever seen on DS.

Usually it's just one poor soul who somehow manages to carry a coffin to the middle of the woods at night and does all the lowering and burying by themselves!!

See, normally you'd need 6 pallbearers, some sort of officiating minister/undertaker, and the mourners.

The magic number was what? 6 actors per episode? Wasn't going to happen.

Which again is why we have these pathetic shotgun wedding ceremonies and no one ever does a dinner party anymore.

Well, Barnabas presumably got it back up by himself!!  ;D  Of course he's got vampire strength again now, but Maggie doesn't know that.  How conveniently he had a shovel lying right there!!

LOL!  I noticed that too Cassandra.    It did actually look like a normal funeral service for once.  Now all you needed was the Minister and you'd be all set!!
