  BIG FINISH’s DARK SHADOWS-BLOODLUST episode 6   Opening narration: The sheriff? Kate?   Maggie talks to Quentin about him leaving and how he is not normal. Quentin didn’t think Maggie would be so closed minded. Michael Devereux told him about Maggie’s group. Maggie knows Quentin did not personally cause Susan’s death.   Amy comes looking for Harry and Tommy (Tom). Quentin tells Amy it is good to see her again.   “So gloriously loud,” Quentin describes Amy as a child. She is his great granddaughter and she does not know. Maggie feels she does not need to know.   Rhonda comes to speak to Amy Cunningham to tell her and Maggie and Quentin that Andrew is dead. Rhonda also tells them Jessica Griffin was attacked too last night but she is clinging to life in a coma. Maggie wonders about the wounds: a werewolf? She demands Quentin leaves today or she will tell the town what he is.   Ghost Susan just appears as Ed explains to Benjamin Franklin what happened. Susan experien

DARK SHADOWS 529

  DARK SHADOWS  529 “It’s Barnabas Collins who arouses these violent emotions in you. Why?”   KLS. Same still of Collinwood is getting really boring and every ep seems to use it now.   Maggie believes what she saw was a ghost. Her screams are, if possible, more overdone and she does not scream, “Vicki! Vicki!”       We do not see Lara Parker at all in the so called reprise, which is not really a real reprise.     Maggie does walk in so I guess that counts.     Maggie describes Angelique and Vicki realizes that the witch wants her to have the dream and if she does, “Barnabas will die.”    Vicki asks Maggie what it was Angelique said, and Maggie answers, “I don’t know.”       Then Maggie says that she didn’t have time to say anything but she’s already said that the figure spoke over Vicki!? Maggie says she didn’t have time to tell Vicki the entire dream but she did say something. Huh? The couch has the Afghan on it.     Joe comes in and Maggie tell

  DARK SHADOWS 528 “All this time and energy you’ve wasted on this Barnabas Collins.”   “I’m allergic to the cold myself unfortunately.”   Lara. The narration mentions the dream and that the final person to have it will be alone and return to a former state. Why not go the whole spoiler hog and tell us that instead of dying Barnabas will become a vampire again!? No reprise. Vicki and Jeff talk about leaving. Jeff, the jerk, tells her it is only a dream!     WHAT? Jeff vs Vicki over Stokes. Something falls as they argue. She gets an, “IDK what’s going on in your head.”     Vicki tells Jeff he cuts her out of what he is feeling. He’s annoying when he feels it’s a bad thing that she cares more for him than he cares for himself. What a dope he is.     She thinks he’s depressed and he is jealous of Barnabas. Jeff tells her that Barnabas loves her. She insists “No, he does not!”       WHAT? She says something like, “Since I’ve been living here I’ve seen so man

DARK SHADOWS 527

  DARK SHADOWS  527 “How astonishing life is.”   Thayer David. No reprise but a full detailed narration.   It is an hour later. WE KEEP SEEING THE SAME STILL FOR THE NARRATION and it’s starting to get on my nerves. And it looks bad, a far cry from the earlier years. There is talk of Vicki’s “missing hours”.     The painting is back to its full image. Blair tells Jeff and Vicki, “How astonishing life is.”   He feels the most interesting things in life are the unexplained.     He feels he and Jeff will meet again. Jeff feels the same way. WHAT? If Vicki is still in the house and Jeff comes to see her often and Blair is now living there thanks to Roger’s invitation last episode, they are sure to “meet” again.   Also: WHY does Jeff keep referring to Vicki’s sleepwalking as “that night” when it IS the same night as this scene?   AND: Jeff now seems to remember Angelique/Cassandra and refers to her powers. So, now he knows she is the witch?     Tomorrow Je
