Who's watching Dark Shadows

[Deleted]

I kind of want to see it. Dh and I were watching the preview and I was thinking "At least he's not a pirate again". Heh heh. It'd be nice to see Johnny Depp do a different kind of weird.

I really want to see it, but I won't have time for a few weeks. I always say I'm going to go see movies, but then in the end I always end up waiting for the DVD anyway.

As a sideline, I once tried to find the complete original series, and apparently you can buy the entire thing - FOR FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS.

Seriously: who would spend $500 on a TV show?

I'll go see it eventually. I have too much going on this weekend. Oh, maybe I should tell DH I want to go to that...alone for Mother's Day. ;D

$500.00?!?! Is it on netflix? LOL

It is, yes. And apparently the original series is 26 seasons, which I never realized. I remember watching it on the sci-fi channel as a kid, but it was always all out of order, so I'm not sure I've ever seen the complete series. I've seen the complete revival though.

Okay, so tell me if I'm crazy or not. I went to watch it on Netflix (because this thread inspired me, LOL!) but I don't think it starts from the beginning. It stays it's Season 1, but the first episode starts from Willy Loomis and the grave-robbing. Wasn't there a whole other storyline before all of that, when Victoria first comes to Collinsport? Before all the supernatural stuff started? Am I crazy?
