Over the years, I have heard rumors that Bert Convy was in the running for the role of Barnabas. Well, last night, I saw him on THE LOVE BOAT, playing a passenger looking for the reincarnation of a woman he claimed to have loved in a previous life! He even carried around an antique music box that contained the woman's photo! Adding to the DS-ness was the use of sepia-toned flashbacks set in the 1890s.
The story played out more in LOVE BOAT fashion than DS fashion, but nonetheless, I found it to be an interesting coincidence. Makes me wonder if the writer was a DS fan who wrote it as an inside joke.
