Nicky darling I almost lol'd at your tactful hint that 180 minutes of Barnabas, Barnabas,, BARNABAS!!! might be "a bit much." Ya think!
OTOH I watched the clip on Youtube the other day where Julia offers her blood to Old Barn. Frid was incredible in those two episodes... I guess sometimes, he embraced a challenge.
To whom it may concern, several of the episodes on the first 7 or 8 DVD collections (from the arrival of Barnabas to, what, the end of 1795?) had "minor" bloopers and technical defects edited out. The one I regret the most is the nasal Brooklyn voice o/c telling old Bathia Mapes "take him to the Old House!" in her dramatic attempted exorcism of Barn. From what I recall when we discussed this (it's many years back in the Boards and my ability to manhandle the search engine here isn't up to the task of attempting to find those threads), it was the DVD authoring firm that was "routinely" "cleaning up" "materials of such age"--insert the usual cliche from the tech wallahs.
I keep thinking of more fan favorites that need to be on that disc:
Cassandra's first visit to the Old House. "What was your major... Witchcraft?" *sneer* "How DARE you." I just love Cassandra's reaction everytime Barn says: "ANNNN-geLEEEK." Grand stuff.
The Julia Slap. (followed by a montage of all the other times Julia bitchslapped somebody.)
Angelique in 1795 informing Ben that everything that is now Mamselle Josette's will eventually... belong to HER.
Hoffman and Angelique planning their "war of nerves" on Maggie Collins and Hoffman teeth-grittingly informing Ang: "I HATE having to take ORDERS from her!"
Any or all of the Julia/Nicholas scenes.
Naomi and Joshua the morning after Sarah dies.
I could go on... FORCING myself to stop.
