Episode 836: Murder, She Wrought

In which I am surprised that Grayson Hall seems to be using her own native accent throughout the episode.

Dr Julia Hoffman and her habit of pronouncing people dead, sometimes the same person twice in one day.

In which it appears that Dan Curtis has delegated to one of the characters the task of firing an actress from the show.

I note that Count Petofi does not fully understand the powers of his Hand.

In which I opine that the show would be more interesting if Barnabas were smarter.

In which I object to Roger Davis.

I appreciate a beautiful moment between Quentin and Pansy.

A fine moment by Kathryn Leigh Scott.

Don Briscoe’s W. C. Fields imitation, and its story potential.

I go on about the relationship between Barnabas and Josette, finding value in its insipidity.
