I mention a part I wish Virginia Vestoff had played in the 1897 segment.

Episode 1137: It’s Alive, Sort Of
Does Gerard matter? Could Buzz have mattered? Isn’t it for the best that Buzz didn’t matter?
Episode 1167: The English Way of Death
I get carried away and write five substantial paragraphs defending the proposition that you can’t watch Dark Shadows without creating fanfic of it. Nobody notices all the bloopers boom mic shadows, etc; we all mentally edit those things out as we watch.
Episode 1172: The Deck Chairs
Black characters I wish they’d had in Dark Shadows.
Episode 1176: The Week Between
I go on at length about some of the imaginary recasting I would do in my head to keep myself awake during dull parts of the show.
Episode 1187: I Presume You’ve Never Heard About Something Called Parallel Time
I describe episodes 1061-1198 as “Meet Gerard,” and try to think of ways that 1199-1245 could have been made more interesting.
Episode 1187: I Presume You’ve Never Heard About Something Called Parallel Time
Episode 1199: The Wuthering
A couple of ways they might have improved the 1841 Parallel Time story if Jerry Lacy had still been on the show.
Episode 1201: Willie Loomis Must Die: The Movie
I mention one of the episodes of Columbo where Jonathan Frid would have been good as the murderer.
Episode 1203: Frocks and Violence
I notice a portrait of Thomas Jefferson on display in the Collinwood of 1841 Parallel Time. That starts me on a tangent about the overlap of the cast of Dark Shadows with that of 1776 which ends with me imagining what the 1841 PT segment might have been like with Ken Howard instead of Keith Prentice as Morgan Collins.
