I am LMAOROFL at the MB's brilliant caption about Barnabas agonizing that Jeb has cursed him to walk the night at Pepe LePew!  Hilarious!

And, I'm sure I'm the ONLY fan trashy enough to notice that in the 1841 PT lottery storyline, it truly does look as if Morgan has taken a leaf out of the "Spinal Tap" songbook and now has a cucumber wrapped in foil down his trousers... perhaps he's preparing to serenaade Catherine with "lick my love-pump, baby" in the drawing room later in the evening??

cheers, G.

Skunkabas - I LOVE it!!  [stfl]


Here are the captures/captions in question:


1970: Ep #951 - After being attacked by the bat, Barnabas
agonizes that he's become Pepe LePu with that streak in his hair
- oh, no, wait - it's that he is once again vampire. ( But more so
that he's a vampire who looks like Pepe LePu. ;-) )



1971: Ep #1212 - Gabriel has drawn the slip with the 'X.'


Though this capture shows off Barn's Pepe LePu streak better:

If I remember correctly, someone on this forum used to answer to the name "Pepe"....... [snow_smileydevil]

The board wouldn't let me in then!   Maybe that's why they were the good old days!   (j/k)   No new members were accepted for awhile.

Sadly in August '02 we had to close off the forum down to guest access and to new registrations because our then host kept shutting us down for going over our allotted bandwidth and server share. One of the best things we ever did was dump them once our contract expired. Though I'm really beginning to think the best thing we've ever done is sign up with our current host.

So, my reputation did not precede me....!   Thanks for the internal history, MB.

I remember this  when it originally aired and thinking at the  time how JF had aged overnight it seemed and if he's never supposed to grow older as a vampire then why is his hair grey.    I never thought about the show being cancelled so I began to think what happens in five or ten years when his age really begins to show, but then came the shock of finding password in it's place one day so that scenerio never played out.
you know there's a whole wing that's closed off all the time; the west wing, I go there lots of times
