 I can't wait!  The trailer sounds delightful!  Selby, Karlen, Parker and KLS are on board as cast members, and the storyline "teaser" descriptions look very promising indeed!

Well, I do hope that more original cast members are invited.  Also, I'd love to see some of the actors from the 1991 series and the WB pilot involved, too.  It would be great to include people like Marie Wallace, Jerry Lacy, Donna Wandrey, Terry Crawford, Chris Pennock, James Storm, Kate Jackson, Denise Nickerson, Lysette Anthony, Michael T. Weiss, Eddie Jones, Michael Cavaaugh, Blair Brown, et al.  If people from the various Star Trek shows can work together, why not the various eras of DS?

The trailer was great. I love the background music and such....

It intrigued me. I'm looking forward to these.

The official website to be unveiled on June 5:  www.darkshadowsreborn.com

You can now download an audio trailer on the site.  Check it out!!  I dare you to not get goosepimply as you're listening.  :D

I don't know...wasn't really impressed.  Reminded me too much of Return to Collinwood which I thought sucked.   ::)

I've got to say, I wasn't too fond of 'Return to Collinwood' (some promising ideas, but not great overall), but these new audio dramas sound quite good.  The writing on these seems decent, and the storylines promise to be engaging judging from the teaser text.  'Return to Collinwood' had the cool-factor of enabling us to hear the original cast members again, but it was thin on plot, featured too many characters, and was way off on several of the characterizations IMO.  These new audio dramas, at least from the little I've heard, seem to nail things much better than 'Return to Collinwood' did.  It's certainly too early to tell, but I have a feeling these are going to be good.  We shall see.... er... hear.

Big Finish is part of the fan movement that gradually, over the course of 16 years, brought Doctor Who back to the air.    Maybe they can do the same for DS.   Best photo I've ever seen of Lara Parker.

Why yes I do! I'm in the process of rescanning EVERYTHING in my gallery and revamping my whole site, this is what I have for now. I've got some new stuff coming in with the site update.
