I don't know what made me come here this evening. Nostalgia, I suppose.

I hope everyone is doing well.

I still check it a bit, but I'm pretty easy to get in touch with for DS chat. (Peeps too a'skeered to email, though.)

Wow, I saw that other January 2019 post toward a 1999 entry. That was a trip! Major anger at someone who would never see it, and I believe some inaccurate facts about someone's non-death involved, too...

Hi, WR! I don't know if you remember me, but I used to post here all the time, back in the day. I miss this place too.

Hi Johnny. I was just reading some posts from the early 2000s. Kind of fun.

Same here. It's not as fun as when the show was running and we were all watching and commenting on the same episodes. On the other hand, we can now post images and gifs. Do you remember Graeme? He was a regular on the old Usenet board. He's now a member of the Dark Shadows Appreciation Society on Facebook.

I assume you know that DS is still running on Tubi (a free service, with
ads - but actually, not very obnoxious ads, unlike some other online TV
services that I use - so, good for them!).

But, yeah, I do get that, being "on demand", you don't get the "everybody
watching the same eps together" effect, like we used to get when it was on
SciFi.

Anyway, I just watched S1E1 on Tubi; so, yes, they have the Pre-Barn eps.

Good to know. I have Amazon Prime, so I've been using that when I want to watch DS.

Right, but I think Prime Video only has the Barn+ eps. That's why I
recommended Tubi.

(I'm guessing you already know all this, but I am clarifying for the
benefit of others.)

Prime has the pre-Barnabas episodes as well. They are categorized under the title "Dark Shadows: The Beginning". But Tubi is free, so it's good that you are informing fans about it.

Thanks. I'll have to look again. I could only find the Barn+ eps.
(Presumably, it won't have commercials, so a better option if available)

Always good to have multiple options.

Watching ConservaLoons playing with statistics and facts is like watching a

Again, I'm trying to see the real question behind the question. I'm not
implying anything negative or nefarious, just curious.

Anyway, FWIW, I have an on-again, off-again interest in the show. I used
to watch it on SciFi (many years ago). A while back, I watched the first
68 eps and then just totally lost interest. There was some story line
about them checking out a wall in some grotto or something (a car ride away
from Collinwood) that had some significance to something, but I found it
utterly dull and stopped watching.

The very early eps are pretty dull - basically, nothing happens - but you
have to admire the style and the technique.

I'll give him credit for one thing: He is (& will be) the most quotable President
ever. Books have been written about (GW) Bushisms, but Dubya's got nothing on Trump.

The artist formerly known as V.o.S.R. I still look at this group from time to time when missing the wackiness of the early years, and the relative anonymity.

Nice to see some stalwarts still around.
