I never really cared for Sabrina, either--she was SO dull most of the time, and she wasn't even that attractive. Unfortunately, when all the "main" actors went to make the movie, the boring Dr. Jekyll-Mr. Hyde storyline took centre stage which meant Sabrina PT was on quite a bit. I really never liked any of the Quentin incarnations after the original 1897 one. Although I enjoyed his role in the Leviathan plot, Quentin was just an insufferable, hot-headed loony with little personality in Parallel Time--a perfect match for the equally vapid Maggie Collins PT. Also, he was EXTREMELY stupid in the summer/autumn of 1970 plot following 1995--in fact, ALL the characters were brain dead; I don't understand why Julia and Barnabas even let that snotty Hallie Stokes into the house after waht they had seen or why Proessor Stokes really did go to Europe after what they had told him would happen. (Don't get me wrong, though: that storyline is one of my favourites.) 1840 Quentin got on my nerves, too--he was supposed to be a "mad scientist" character, but David Selby (or the writers) never really showed that side of him. Oh, I just remembered one of THE most annoyineg characters (I'm surprised nobody mentioned her): Joanna (1840). My God, that woman could not act! They used up a perfectly wonderful theme song for that awful, cloyingly-stupid character. Oh, and I didn't care much for Roxanne PT--why did Barnabas fall instantly in love with her? To clarify my earlier post, I should like to explain my dislike of Tim Shaw: he was always a side, secondary character that advanced the plot. That was basically it--those episodes featuring him with Charles Delaware Tate and Amanda Harris are positively excrutiating--the worst in the series, hands down. I fast-forward or completely skip them every time.
