Episode 543: The Trouble with Harry

In which Adam learns something Barnabas and Julia would never have taught him.

A discussion about which of the Three Stooges Julia, Barnabas, and Willie are most like.

The first time I discuss my idea that the relationship between Bossy Big Sister and Bratty Little Brother is central to Dark Shadows.

I refer to my thing about the “bossy big sister/ bratty little brother” relationships on the show.

In which I note that Magda, having inherited Julia’s habit of addressing herself to “Barnabas Barnabas,” has started speaking to “Quentin Quentin.”

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

In which I object to Roger Davis.

The episode features a heart-to-heart conversation between Julia and Angelique, an astounding moment in the series.
