April 1971
« on: October 29, 2019, 03:09:38 PM »
It sounded more like Halloween than springtime at the drive-in theater, 48 years ago

'A popular vampire show on daytime TV breathed its last that April, as “Dark Shadows” was cancelled by ABC after five years.  “Dark Shadows” stood out among other soap operas by featuring monsters, ghosts, and a blood-sucker named Barnabas Collins.  It was replaced by an old game show brought back from the dead: “Password,” hosted by Allen Ludden.'

A date that will live in infamy.

It was April 2. But it was no April Fool's.

Such an upsetting day...

Very interesting how DS continues to pop up in blurbs here and there. It seems there is no shortage of subjects that can reference our beloved soap opera.
