Fans, anyone in Providence and related areas of Rhode Island (or adjoining states) affected by the flooding, please do check in.

I live in Boston and all we got was a little water in our cellar, praise the Gods.

Hope everyone is OK and safe.

Best wishes,

Gothick

Thanks, Midnite!  yes, they screen some material over and over and over again, but can Pierson be bothered to take the time out to return Grayson's Playtex commercial to her eagerly awaiting fans?  Aber nein!  *sobs*

I was thinking about Grayson's One Life to Live episodes this morning, for some reason, and wondering whether I'll ever get the chance to see more of them.  I just love how grandly she chews that rather threadbare scenery as Euphemia Ralston.

MSC, I am dying here from your descriptions of Ruth Warrick (who earns an honorary place in DS heaven since she played Big Lou's spouse on another soap) and Anna Lee, especially the glazed architectural hairdos!  LOL!  I think there's something distinctly Lady Bird Johnson about Joan's later (circa 1970) do.

Wow, Jerry Lacy still has the mojo, doesn't he?  He evokes the true essence of Dark Shadows as we knew it way back when.  Fabulous.

G.

Just a comment to acknowledge the luminous, quietly stunning beauty of today's shot of Grayson.

Many thanks for this, MB.

cheers, G.

A new tribute to Grayson was added to YouTube a few days ago, featuring some unusual images (mostly screen captures from DVDs, I think):

The soundtrack is an aria from some opera not known to me... sounds vaguely like Engelbert Humperdinck...

I guess I am the only one here who thinks the grey streaks make Barn suddenly bear an uncanny resemblance to Grandpa Munster.

cheers,

G.

What a ravishing showcase, a beautiful tribute to a favorite scene.

Thanks, MB!

G.

Cool.  I'd known of Thayer's involvement with the Brattle, but not Fred Gwynne's.

Thanks, Midnite!
