5.0 out of 5 stars DARK SHADOWS - Still going strong 45 years later!, April 30, 2011

DARK SHADOWS, ABC's Gothic (supernatural) daytime drama, debuted in 1966 and ended in 1971. It started rather unspectacularly, with the typical soap opera plots common to that genre. The ratings were tanking when Mr. Curtis decided to go for broke and introduce a supernatural element, with Laura, the Phoenix and the ghost of Josette Collins. The show really hit the big time with the introduction of Barnabas Collins, a tortured soul, cursed with immortality by Angelique, a jealous witch from Martinique!

The show explored many plot lines (many taken from literary classics) and delved into Parallel Time, time travel and other mysteries.

Viewers couldn't wait to tune in and see what happened. Cliffhangers on Friday were common and a lot of people (me included) either kept notes or taped the show. We adored the wonderful cast..and we still do..45 years later. Every year a marvelous DARK SHADOWS FESTIVAL is held and this year it will be at the Brooklyn Bridge Marriott Hotel - August 19 thru 21. Many stars of the show will be on hand to sign autographs (Mr. Frid is scheduled to be there), answer questions, and there will be plenty of episodes to enjoy, plus a dealer's memorabilia room, a silent auction and a banquet dinner on the final night. Not to be missed!

I purchased this particular edition of the DARK SHADOWS collection because I adore DONNA WANDREY, who portrayed ROXANNE DREW. Alas, she did not appear in many episodes, but was a luminous presence in the ones where she did appear.

Once you've experienced the magic and mystery of DARK SHADOWS, there is no going back! We are beholding to MPI for having the perspicacity to release the entire series to fans who can't get enough of this never to be forgotten series! DARK SHADOWS LIVES!

5.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining!, December 10, 2011

Just as entertaining as the 23 collections leading up to this one. However, I keep hoping that the first episodes of "Dark Shadows" will eventually show up in a DVD collection as well. The show had aired for over 6 months before "Jonathan Frid" was hired as Barnabas Collins. Jonathan Fried's character, Barnabas, made the show rating hit the ceiling. The show was popular from that point on, and that's probably why first DVD collection starts when Jonathan Frid is among the cast. Apparently the show was barely hanging on before Jonathan Fried but, as a devoted Dark Shadows's fan, I would love to see the first months of the show made it to the collection.
