i remember watching dark shadows when i was a kid,and thinking even then how different and original this show was from any other show on tv.i still feel that way i still watch the episodes on DVD.the storylines were and are unlike any show in history.dark shadows is easily the greatest day time show ever,and one of the greatest shows in tv history.Jonathon frid is one of my favorite actors of all time.i also like 3 dark shadows films,especially house of dark shadows.i also liked the short lived 1991 dark shadows prime time show.Ben cross a excellent barnabas collins,2d only to mr.frid.Great show once you watch dark shadows.it stays with you 4 ever.long live dark shadows.
