What a Divine poll, Darlings!  You all did a splendid job!

Of course one of *my* favorite dresses wasn't included--that electric blue number she wore in her very last scene at Callanwoody... sigh

Still, I loved the selection!  You have proved conclusively that contrary to popular belief, Dr. Julia Hoffman COULD look sharp, snazzy, and chic!

And then, there's that sweater thing from 1967 *slaps hand over brow* let's NOT go there... I am convinced that GH personally torched that thing in the studio back lot one afternoon!

btw I don't think the diVOON grey suit was from GH's personal wardrobe--she favored bright colors and BOLD patterns, and she was an autumn...

Just checking in with another stellar review for Forever Knight.  It is one of the very, VERY few 1990s TV shows I like well enough to have in my tape collection (the other two were She-wolf of London and Poltergeist: the Legacy--I also have some episodes of Babylon 5 and I used to have its sequel, Crusade, but gave those tapes away to another fan).  The first two years were MUCH better than year 3, however, although year 3 introduced a great character--Divia, daughter of Lacroix, played by amazing child actress Kathryn Long.  (Unfortunately she was only in a couple of episodes.)

FK had some really great scripts (and some that were not so great, but that's television) and a wonderful supporting cast of great Canadian actors (it was filmed in Toronto).

As for the DS DVDs, I don't have any of them.  Set 1 of the DVD's I believe began with episode 210 or 211--the "Introduction of Barnabas" storyline.  The DVDs had some bloopers edited out of them because MPI outsourced the prep work to a company that didn't understand that we LIKE having the bloopers on the shows (at least, this is the most plausible story I have heard). Although they keep swearing they are not going to edit future discs, I keep hearing reports of some bit of footage being sliced out.

As somebody else said, I doubt whether the company will release the first 200-odd episodes until after they've gotten to the end of the series.

It's very inspiring to me how long MPI has kept DS in print.  That hard commercial fact alone shows how exceptional our show is!

Oh boy!  that episode is such fun!  And the Divine Nina Foch is in it, doing her very own impersonation of Helen Lawson!

Excellent news!

I don't recall Curtis having been involved in the original Night Stalker TV series.  He did the movies and that was it.  Or is my memory failing me again?

G.

Don't forget that the "infamous" Roger Davis (aka "RD") also stars!

I've tried to forget, but the scar, the horror of it all, lingers.

*cackling* I just hope you don't injure yourself, or your wiglet (!), when you FLING yourself DRAMATICALLY against the wall a la Tippi...

That's got to be one of the strangest movies of all time!  even for Hitchcock!

I thought KLS' best acting in the series, by about a mile, was in 1966 when she and Joe were just starting to court.  She gives such depth to those scenes, particularly in the non-verbal part.

Her best moments post '67 were the too-few early episodes of Lady Kitty.  I loved it when she confronted Count Petofi, thinking he was behind the odd occurrences at Collinwood.  She seemed so fearless, yet she exuded a liquid charm that completely wowed the old fiend.
