  • Dark Shadows cast members Jonathan Frid, Lara Parker, and Kathryn Leigh Scott are interviewed together in a daytime TV appearance broadcast 6-27-91. The BetaGems channel also has "Come Die With Me 1974 TV movie Dan Curtis, George Maharis," "Nightmare At 43 Hillcrest 1974 TV Movie Dan Curtis John Karlen," "Invasion of Carol Enders 1973 Dan Curtis, Meredith Baxter, John Karlen," "Dan Curtis TV and movie commercials 1970s-1980s," "Dark Shadows 1970s TV ads products & syndication," "Jonathan Frid Arsenic & Old Lace TV ad May 1987 San Diego" and clips of Leigh Scott in "June Lockhart hosts Pilot Playhouse 1992."
    BetaGems are culled from an archive of over 1000 beta video tapes recorded from 1983 into the 1990s. Most feature live music performances broadcast on television in San Diego CA, though there are also rarely seen commercials, comedy clips, and other material that doesn't seem to be anywhere else on UA-cam or online. Most of the tapes were recorded on a Sony SL-HFT7 Super Beta Theater Hi-Fi Stereo - the same model was refurbished and is being used for these digital transfers and uploads.
    In rare occasions where a BetaGems clip does appear elsewhere, we're only uploading if our own beta master is better quality or contains material not seen previously. Much footage comes from public television and public access broadcasts that the taper, who worked for a local cable TV production company in the 1980s, monitored nightly for several years. Some of the programming is strictly regional, mostly from the San Diego area.

    Jonathan Frid was very close friends with actress / author Lara Parker. She was one of his favorites along with Grayson Hall. I remember that awesome DS Festival convention in Los Angeles. The convention had guest actors from the 1991 series. The audience in the Ballrooms at the LA Marriott was huge. There were a ton of new fans there, they were the second generation of DS fans. They were introduced to the show by watching the reruns on the old SyFy Channel which had a lot of old classic shows on their station. Fird said he hated those big bite scenes on the show and in the DS movie. Frid hated House of Dark Shadows .

      Yes Frid too hated the House of Dark Shadows movie because Curtis directed him to play the blood thirsty killer. Frid hated that and what they did with his character in the movie. Because of that, Frid turned down the offer from Curtis to do the DS movie sequel. That pissed off Curtis and ended their friendship. also by that time late 1970 Frid no longer wanted to play the vampire anymore and feared negative type casting , which was to late by then. In 1971 on the show they had Frid play a different role, the Human son of Barnabas named Bramwell. The movie House of DS is how Dan Curtis would have wanted the vampire to have been on the show and then killed off because the Barnabas character was only meant to have been temporary in the beginning, on the show.

    I can see why I had such a major crush on these two most beautiful women. Lara Parker with those gorgeous eyes and Kathryn Leigh Scott had some of the meanest legs in TV history.

    I wasnt allowed to watch this as a child ( too scarey)...but I remember my cousins running home from school to watch. I was only in elementary school. However, during this at home time we are living, I re-discovered this. I for, the first time, am watching this series. I am on the episode 359 of the traditional season (they have separated the seasons: the first 300 or so episodes were the early story). Julia is starting to go crazy. How funny binge watching Dark Shadows in 2020, Love the early plot lines and the various mysteries in the early seasons!

      I get it when you say that you weren't allowed to watch the show because it was too scary for your young mind back in the day--which I interpret to mean that your parents didn't let you watch it.
      When you say that you were "only in elementary school" during the show's original run,
      you wouldn't believe how many other kids who were avid fans were also just in elementary school.
      I certainly was (I was born in 1961), and trust me, I wasn't the only kid who by the age of 5 was watching the show during its first year on-air (by virtue of the fact that my 15-year-old babysitter was addicted to it), by the age of 6 was hooked on it, and by the age of 7 was running home from school to watch it--which I did for several years, until the end of the series in 1971.
      I think Dark Shadows will live on long after all of us are gone, and will likely be reincarnated again--perhaps successfully as a series (or movies) that honor the spirit of the original series in the future (unlike the Johnny Depp movie, which didn't, IMHO).
      I too, am rewatching the entire series, which I have purchased on DVD. The series comes as 26 "seasons" on DVD in a box set, which is a "casket" that opens to show an image of Barnabas, and all of the DVD's are contained therein.
      I'm on episode 463 (on 10-14-2020).
      Victoria has just arrived back to 1968 after being hanged as a witch in 1795.
      I'm taking it kind of slow, watching multiple episodes sometimes, and then sometimes I'm taking breaks and going days or even weeks in between watching episodes. I started in 2018, and I imagine it'll be a few years into the future before I'm done with the entire series.
      It's iconic.
      It's nostalgic.
      And vampires who don't make it back to their coffins before sunrise don't make it.
      What more do you want in a $300 box set of a show from the 1960's?.......

      Yes, I rushed home after school to watch DARK SHADOWS, in 1967 age 14, I also loved the the eerie intro with waves crashing on the rocky Maine coast, and fantasized about living there one day. Now at age 70, I do!!!

    As a kid, run or no run, I always missed the first scene of every episode. Fortunately, since the first scene generally tended to be a reenactment of the last scene of the previous episode, it really wasn't that much of a loss.
    If you have the series on home video, you can compare the closers to the openers. Sometimes one or the other was the better take.

    Does anyone remember a "Dark Shadows" interview, where I know it was Jonathan Frid, and maybe Kathryn Leigh Scott and Lara Parker again, where the interviewer made a very dismissive remark about the "Dark Shadows" franchise that it really upset Jonathan Frid to the point he would not answer the interviewer for the remainder of the segment. Some people will never understand the time and effort that goes into creating a Legacy.

      @@peterdavino4408 I can't seem to remember but it was something along the lines that the show was stupid, and you could tell it upset Jonathan Frid, because he felt the interviewer was taking the show and it's creators, and even its fans for granted.

    This broadcast on 6/27/91 WAS the 25th anniversary to the day! The only problem here is their hedging regarding the 1991 version. It (unfortunately) only aired January-March '91 and was cancelled, so this was more than 3 months after that and they definitely would have been aware of it. I did go to that convention near LAX, and several others over the years there, and in Burbank, Ca.
