Hello, Dark Shadows Fan,
ShadowGram (SG), The Official Newsletter & News Source for Dark Shadows (DS), announces the following breaking news in this Online News Update "bulletin."
--- PALEY CENTER SURVEY – FAVORITE TV VAMPIRE
*** PALEY CENTER FOR MEDIA - SURVEY – VOTING NOW OPEN
The Paley Center for Media is holding a "TV Vampire (S)Takedown" – a vote for "Who is the Greatest TV Vampire of Them All?" The 16 candidates, including "Barnabas Collins", are listed with their TV show, airdates, brief and character description.
The poll is in response to the popular "explosion in the popularity of vampires.... Suddenly, it seems, audiences want blood."
Barnabas is described as follows:
"Barnabas Collins
(1966 to 1971)
Dark Shadows' resident vamp was in the classic style, and actor Jonathan Frid's lovelorn performance made the gothic soap a cultural phenomenon. Barnabas was simultaneously romantic and cruel, a potent combination that had female viewers swooning over their bon bons during his late sixties run."
Fans are encouraged to go to the Paley website and vote.
