I decided to finally buy some DS DVD's. Chose 18-20 because I remember
two plots from watching when I was a kid....Quentin not talking and the
Parallel time room. So I thought I'd start re watching in the middle,
lol. I don't remember the Leviathans at all, but have read lots about
it on the news group so wanted to see that too.
The only specific thing I remember from parallel time is the doors to
the room. I remember as a kid being so excited about that....about
Barnabas going to the doors and wondering every episode if he would see
the "other" room or not.
Re watching it again I've been struck with various thoughts. Stupid
ones, like there is a lot of really good hair on DS. (I want beautiful
thick hair like Nancy Barrett or KLS). Changes of opinion....when I was
a kid I didn't like Julia Hoffman. But I'm really enjoying her
character now. There is a lot of very good acting on the show which I
also didn't really notice back in the day. Took it for granted at the
time I suppose. As for the flubs, I didn't notice them then either. I
must of been a very naive TV watcher or the flubs just didn't interest
me. I remember Barnabas giving "that look" and then getting his own way
and I enjoy that just as much now as I did then. Also how Lara Parkers
eyes would flash when she decided something evil must be done. Also the
music that accompanies that. You know Angelique is up to something no
good and worth watching.
It has been interesting to watch these episodes again, the first time in
40 years. I have been really enjoying them and after #20 is over I'm
going to watch #11. (OH yes, I'm doing everything backwards.)
