@@MormonMustang_ Yes. If we have video of it, it aired. But no one really cared because the idea that anyone would ever see it again after it aired didn't really occur to anyone. Home video? didn't exist. Plus back then, the tape was so expensive that they always got written over but for some reason all the Dark Shadows tapes ended up on a shelf somewhere and discovered years later which is why we can watch it today. Not sure if that was intentional or just a great accident.
@@MormonMustang_ yeah, they had very little rehearsal time so they just had to go with it no matter what happened. Basically, if it got filmed, it ended up on TV's. They had no budget for edits so there are a lot of these fun blooper videos.
i heard louis edmonds once say they kept the cameras rolling so as not to waste money reshooting the entire scene. a fly landed on barnabas twice in one scene..he was a trooper for sure
3:45 the way Angelique stares at the teleprompter is almost as if she is looking at us the viewers, thinking 'can you believe what Barnabas is telling me' !
Even with all the fuckups, still a billion times better than that Goddamned abomination of Tim Burton’s. We were cheated out of having a serious Dark Shadows movie and were given a farce.
Our beautiful Jonathan had lifelong dyslexia, poor guy! It must have been crazy difficult to continuously learn those massive batches of lines, and a different batch every day. Plus, trying to read the teleprompter must have been hell. 🙏🏼🌹
What's up with all those damn flies!? A LOT of these Dark Shadows bloopers have flies buzzing around and/or landing on the actors faces. Flies are attracted to either something dead or rotting food....what else was going on nearby!??
+pJletsplays I know that one! When they were shooting in black and white they blue looked more like white than white did. So everything like candles and lab coats that were supposed to be white were actually a light blue. Then they went to color and had lots of blue candles left. Money was tight, so they just kept using them.
percysowner: When the 1795 Flashback was aired, the show was already being broadcast in full color. The reason for the Baby Blue candles was to show color in the set--it had nothing to do with money being tight, even as the show did have budget concerns, those sets used did come across well for daytime television.
And they just went on with their scenes, without breaking up from laughter...what troopers!
The "innocent until proven innocent" is an all time classic.
Did this flub air?

@@kpmac1 What a phenomenal show and Cast. Just seeing how they pushed through these flubs shows how amazing they were at their craft.

Yeah! They were a low budget show & it cost $500.00 to stop the camera back then, which is around 4K in today’s money.
Somehow…they still look and sound great…even with the bloopers! What pros to carry that off so well 😲😄😊👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍
The shot with barnabas, caroline and the camera is priceless 🤣
I love the way Joan stamps her foot in pique when she blows a line.
"She'd be better off lying downstairs.... upstairs in her room." HAHAHAHAHA!!! XD
That bat! What a truly cheesy special effect🦇🦇🦇
Her right to be judged innocence... until she is proven innocence!
that makes sense to me.
Yes it would be "a little complicated for his mind to absorb."
Love all The Dark Shadows Bloopers !
The show was full of them.
Such a classic...I love it...would watch it every day if it was on...
Hulu has several seasons of Dark Shadows
Tubi
Has entire series !!! My Son and I watched all six years over lockdown shutdown here in 2020
Pluto tv!
@@novastariha8043 Yes I've watched the entire series twice on tubi during lockdown!
3:45 the way Angelique stares at the teleprompter is almost as if she is looking at us the viewers, thinking 'can you believe what Barnabas is telling me' !
The special effects on the bat.... bravo.
Even with all the fuckups, still a billion times better than that Goddamned abomination of Tim Burton’s. We were cheated out of having a serious Dark Shadows movie and were given a farce.
Yeah...it was more comedy than a serious remake..but you can never remake a classic anyway...
The movie was 💩💩💩
I want the complete series. I want that coffin!!
Me toooooo! 😄😉🧛🏻
LOL!!!! Julia's SCREAM😸
I think Grayson Hall was a diva and a jerk
Some of the line flubs make the dialog seem natural.
Yes it sounds natural
Makes it seem less scripted and more natural.....
Yes thats the same thing I said. The bloopers makes this show seem more realistic! Without all the editing!
Love "live" tv!!!

ROTF at 1:13 When the camera backs out of the shot like "Oops...my bad!"
Unless the actors cursed, the cameras kept rolling!
I saw a You Tube video where Quentin was opening a letter and seemed to say S##T.
Bloopers on this show were inevitable! The series was videotaped for future airing, but it was taped as if it were a live show.
still better than the movie. and i'm a johnny depp fan.
The remake in1991 was good, the movie with JD and TB was garbage
Depp had no respect for the Original DS at all
cracked!!!!
1:39-1:43, the unofficial debut of Dr. Hoffman's short haircut.
Why unofficial?
Hilarious bloopers!!!
😆
Barnabas wants Carolyn's hair. lol
Keep the camera rolling regardless!
And the candles
Great show
A good example of how Grayson Hall would try to steal scenes, constantly moving and changing expressions, blinking her enormous eyelashes...
Splish splash your opinion is trash.
Caterpillars. Made my eyes itch.
the cast were told, not to greatly concern themselves over the screw ups, because the episodes would only be aired once.
Wow..they don't laugh at their bloopers. Serious bunch.
Eva Green is no Lara Parker
Great bloopers !
They left out shots of over head microphones and stage hands accidentally being caught on camera. 😁
What's up with all those damn flies!? A LOT of these Dark Shadows bloopers have flies buzzing around and/or landing on the actors faces. Flies are attracted to either something dead or rotting food....what else was going on nearby!??
Not many flies make it in television. Sadly, they have probably passed on.
Yes what was going on nearby, I noticed the flies crawling on some of the cast faces also..
True pros. Most of us would double over in stitches.
@2:02....two shootin irons.....Barnabas is loaded for bear !!!
One seems to be slippery......
Bloopers are part of real life. We all stumble over our own lines.
what's up with the baby blue candles everywhere? That's my real question.
+pJletsplays I know that one! When they were shooting in black and white they blue looked more like white than white did.

I always loved the vibrant colors of the sets
@0:55. That TON of flipped up shellac hair is amazing. Is that her real hair?
Innocent until proved innocent 🤔
Ha!
I did wish Julia did go back to windcliff.
Where's the one of Kate Jackson hitting someone on the head?
1:12....wow, that's really bad even for DS.
2:07 is 😬
Cringe. Cringe cringe cringe.
