Dark Shadows--completely unique and memorable!! It's a classic filled with twists and turns, shaking sets, muffed lines, and great characters! Daily at 4 PM, life would go on hold, and it seemed like everybody was watching Barnabas, Angelique, Josette, Willy, Rev. Trask, Dr. Hoffman, Quentin, and many other eccentrics. This collection revisits all that was Dark Shadows; it's a great overview of plots and characters, including full episodes, movie features, and interviews with David Selby (Quentin) and--of course--Jonathan Frid (Barnabas). The collection is a great find, and has something for everyone!!

I grew up watching this series. We would ride our bikes home as fast as possible to catch it afterschool. I love all the people in this show. However, this is not a show about the excellent acting or wonderful scripts. It's almost like those horrible B movies that came on every weekend, that we loved without reason. Those old movies were awful, with horrible cheesy effects, and yet we were so entertained. The first year of the show didn't have a vampire, but once he came onto the show we had to see it, terrible make-up and all. So just sit back and enjoy this show without a critical eye, but instead with this thought, "How fun were the 60's/70's, that they made a show with a vampire named Barnabas?!". It just doesn't get any better...With a smile I bid you happy viewing.

I used to look forward to watching Dark Shadows as a pre-schooler, and was pleased with the opportunity to see it again, 50+ years later. This collection does not disappoint. Six disks! I still can't believe this was daytime TV fare all those years ago

Fond memories of my childhood as I remember the running home from school so I could watch this television drama! The musical scored scenes helped with the conveyance of mood & emotion. A great cast of characters both young and seasoned performers. A vampire tale that is romantic in its own way as we learn the tale of Collingswood and who Barnabas is!

If you are a fan of Dark Shadows, you're in for a REAL treat! This set includes some the best episodes that the series has to offer. I only wish that it had included more of the Parallel Time episodes from 1970 but, all in all, this set is a MUST HAVE for any Dark Shadows enthusiasts!

This brought back a bunch of memories from when I was a kid. Had to run home every day to catch Dark Shadows and then flip channels to catch the syndicated showing of Star Trek. Great days to be a kid!
