Plot functions of Roxanne Drew.

Episode 1047: The Invention of Feelings
I speak up in defense of the 1970 Parallel Time segment.
Episode 1048: Claw North
The plot function Claude North served.
Episode 1049: All the Secrets
In which I wonder of Burke Devlin was the natural son of Quentin Collins.
Episode 1050: The Fault in Our Stars
A tour of a town in which each resident is hiding in one or another secret chamber.
Episode 1056: The Parallel Sky
I praise another commenter’s suggestion that 1970 Parallel Time (the segment I call “Meet Another Angelique”) would have been better with Alexandra Isles as an evil version of Vicki and Lara Parker as her innocent victim, the second Mrs Quentin Collins. That would make it an inversion of the 1795 storyline (which I call “Meet Angelique.”)
Episode 1057: Infinite Jest
I muse about some of my favorite imaginary recasts and draw responses.
Episode 1058: When I Am Not With You
I recommend Daughters of Darkness.
Episode 1061: I’ll Be There For You
I mention a moment that made me laugh.
Episode 1063: Wonderwall
I point out that this episode answers a question many of the commenters had raised on the blog when Barnabas says that Elizabeth put The Old House in the name of Barnabas Collins in the late 1960s.
