Forty-five years ago today, Jonathan Frid made his first appearance as Barnabas Collins at the end of Dark Shadows episode 211:



I keep meaning to post about the upcoming Tim Burton/Johnny Depp Dark Shadows film. The trailers look beautiful but are way too jokey for my liking (akin to a trailer for a remake of Wuthering Heights in which Cathy runs through the moors calling "Heathcliff!"...and then the cartoon cat shows up and they start dancing to Barry White).

Maybe the movie will be great. Maybe it won't. Hopefully it will at least interest some new people in watching the original show, which I continue to adore.

Yes, I thought the trailer looked all too jokey, too.

Happy Frid-day, and happy Thursday too. [hugs]
