The Dark Shadows Hour

Hello Cousins!

If Dark Shadows was an hour long show instead of 30 minutes long, what would you have like to see?

Examples: magic tricks, blooper of the day, featured DS products, interviews with the stars,daily show previews, Dark Shadows Idol(where characters sing favorite songs for people's vote to win a trophy)

You can use your imagination with this topic and have fun.

I'll be the boring one and just wish that there had been twice as much DS as usual. XD

It would have been soothing to listen/watch Joan Bennett bake.

Imagine Grayson cooking, while her ashes go into what she's cooking!!

!!Petofi Grills!!

Or, there could be 30 minute segments with Mike Douglas interviewing each cast member.

I'm w/Ian, let's just see 30 more minutes of the story.

I ALWAYS wished it was 60 minutes long.  What with commercials, it seemed like each day's episode was only 15 minutes long!!

But what I wished for most of all (besides more Willie Loomis) was that it had been done live.  Oh, how I would have LOVED that!!

That sounds good but not with Mike Douglas -- somebody else.

How's about:

*The Divine Chef - With Grayson Hall*
Joy of Painting - With David Selby
Let's Sing! - With David Selby
Assertiveness Training - With Willie Loomis
My Bunny Ears - With KLS
Girl Talk - Starring KLS & Kathy Cody

Joy of Anything - With David Selby (airs once a week)

Petofi....the Family Feud would be GREAT!

Not to be mean, but I think *our* beloved DS alumunus(sp?) is far superior, and Match Game (with the above mentioned....ah....?stars?) wouldn't do them justice (IMHO).

Connie, I would like to genuinely thank you for the most sincere smile that cross my face today

That was a literal LOL. 

When I got glued to DS on the SciFi channel I started to buy the MPI tapes and realized how much more soothing and interesting the stories were without stuff being interrupted every 5 minutes with commercials. So, I am also for more  more  story.

I ALWAYS wished it was 60 minutes long.  What with commercials, it seemed like each day's episode was only 15 minutes long!!

But what I wished for most of all (besides more Willie Loomis) was that it had been done live.  Oh, how I would have LOVED that!! 

Each tape says 108 minutes, for 5, so each ep. couldn't have been more than 21 or 22 minutes.

Seriously, as many interviews as they could do.  I've seen or heard none apart from that one repeated montage at the ends of tapes.

It was practically live already!

It was practically live already!

As one who was watching when "Paul Stuart's" hair piece fell off during a fight scene on "As The World Turns", I can assure you that there is a real difference between "practically" live and "LIVE!"
