Episode 611: The Love Object
In which I wonder if David Henesy found a way to take revenge on Roger Davis, or if the writers did.
Episode 639: Vampire Excites Wives, Young Set
Praise for child actors Denise Nickerson, David Henesy, and Sharon Smyth.
Episode 642: Mind Over Manners
I make the case that the growing friendship between Vicki and David was not only the best thing about the first 42 weeks of the show, but that Alexandra Moltke Isles’ and David Henesy’s performances in that story were the purest example in the whole series of good acting overcoming weak writing.
Episode 644: Phoning It In
In which I appreciate David and Amy’s transformation into an old married couple.
Episode 679: The Not Happening
Two comments- in the one linked above, I say that Danny Horn doesn’t give David Henesy the credit he deserves, since he did his best work in the episodes “Dark Shadows Every Day” didn’t cover; in the second, I argue that the themes of Dark Shadows make it logical that child abuse should be a major focus of the show.
Episode 680: The Room
In which I realize what Joel Crothers was talking about when he explained why he left Dark Shadows.
Episode 694: The Surrender
In which I claim that the theme of child abuse running through this part of the show is especially powerful if you watch starting with episode 1.
Episode 726: The Comeback
In which I argue that the show deliberately leaves open the possibility that Gregory Trask sexually assaulted Jamison.
Episode 730: How I Met Your Mother
Why I liked the original Phoenix story.
