one Newbies DS story

Welcome, Mary Elizabeth - and belated happy birthday!!  

I'm anticipating you finally getting to see the original - I'm sure you'll love it!

Hi Mary Elizabeth Happy belated B-day and Welcome to our DS Family.
                       Love Anne

Thank you all so much for a warm welcome!!

The horror channel is officially launching this week in a rather lackluster fashion.

Basically for one night in the week on THE MEN'S CHANNEL, it turns into THE HORROR CHANNEL...and with very limited territories.

Apparently, they can't even manage to pull that much off. Their web site indicates that it won't happen due to a "technical issue."

Welcome Mary Elizabeth.  I am fairly new to the board as well and they certainly are very welcoming!  Even if Sci-Fi didn't pick it up, it would be great to see something like TVLand or KDOC (Los Angeles local) pick it up for late evenings...probably wishful thinking but KDOC has been getting out of their Columbo/McCloud/Banacheck phase and are now showing Twilight Zone episodes.

I miss DS on the Sci-Fi channel- even if I didn't get to watch it every day, it was wonderful when I was not feeling well, stayed home from work and could curl up in a blanket and watch the re-runs.  Made staying home sick a little bit easier to swallow!

We also Bought the first of the Original series on DVD for my mother-in-law, who has loved the show since she was a young girl. I haven't yet had a chance to view the original as she is still enjoying them and is not ready for us to borrow them just yet

When you get a chance to see them, you'll love them. The first few volumes are quite wonderful and really poetic in black and white.

Welcome aboard!

Welcome Mary Elizabeth,

I'm sure you will enjoy this forum, and the original show when you get a chance to watch.

Yes, I agree that the exposure of being aired nationally is very important to bring in new fans. It would be wonderful if they could air 2 episodes back to back on a national network, and during a good time slot too.


I also wanted to point out all of the supernatural TV shows that are being shown, why oh why couldn't the WB have picked up the new Dark Shadows.

Hey Mary Elizabeth, welcome to our group!  I fell in love with Dark Shadows back in 1991 when I first saw the revival series too. The revival series lead to my obsession with the original. I'm glad that you're such a huge fan. And by the way, I love your avatar. Did you make it yourself?

Mary Elizabeth,

I forgot to tell you how much I love your avatar. Joanna Going is such a beautiful woman, and made an fantastic Vicki.

Misa

Thanks, yeah i did a google search to find an older pic of her. I loved her as Viki/Josette. I thought she was so lovley. I just finished watching the Revival Series again last night. I think that had the show been allowed to continue she could've had showcased more of her talent.

Joanna Going was my favorite cast member of the Revival series. I really can't praise her enough honestly. She was the highlight of the series, IMO.
