DARK SHADOWS 636

 DARK SHADOWS 636 “I know a clinic. Yes…yes. If you don’t like the old Adam, we’ll make a new one. I need a project.”     “You know I’m convinced this place is haunted but in all my reading I’ve never encountered a ghost who used the telephone.” “I’m using the body of someone named Jeff Clark but I’m really Peter Bradford. And I know it now. But IDK everything. If I knew everything, I’d…I’d know how I came to this century…” “You hate me.”   “Do you really believe that?”   Thayer. Different reprise. Rainless wind.   The moderately to very different reprise has Adam directly talking to Vicki about what Barnabas and “they” did to Eve and “NO!” to her asking him to leave her alone and “You will die the way she died! And Barnabas will suffer!”   ALL of this was said directly to Vicki in THIS episode but in the cliffhanger, he is NOT addressing Vicki at all, just ranting like a lunatic to himself and out loud and possibly to Eve’s skeleton.     It’...

CARRIE s1e1: FIRST PERIOD

  CARRIE s1e1: FIRST PERIOD It’s hard to pinpoint this show so far. They see to be heading toward this being Carrie THE SUPER HEROINE’s back story and origin story. No, no, and no. Carrie is and was a monster created by her mother.   BUT since this is 2026 and female empowerment is the thing and bashing white (and sometimes other) males is the thing, Carrie’s father becomes the villain of the piece. Carrie’s mom is denoted as abusive, unbalanced, cold hearted and villainous but it’s NOT her fault: she is as much a victim of the man as Carrie is. No female can be evil in the 2026 version of things.   Thus, the principal is sort of nice to Carrie but fights the mom on “if Carrie had been prepared at home.” He can be seen as overbearing toward Carrie’s mom and villainous, too.   Thus, the girl bully, the evil Chris, has a reason she’s a mean girl, too and guess who’s the dick behind her meanness: her dad, another white male.

DARK SHADOWS 635

Image
DARK SHADOWS  635 Nancy Barrett. It is 11-29-68 . No reprise but partly reprised as Adam sneaks up the steps LATER. After a scene…   The narration mentions a remote corner of the great estate that we later find out is Widow’s Hill. Sure didn’t look like Widow’s Hill but it seems as if it changes each time it is shown. Julia asks Barnabas what happened. He says he is all right, Julia says, “Thank God.”   Blair is gone forever, Julia rejoices.    “Nicholas is gone. Nicholas is gone.”  We  heard ya the first time! Julia continues, “The danger is over.”  Around here?    The drama queen says, “Barnabas, Barnabas!” She seems to hug him and he hugs her! Are these two  a couple now?   12am. It is now, after all that, that we see the reprise. Adam sneaks into Collinwood. This time before he enters the landing doorway into the bedroom halls, he says, “They will all die.”  That was not in the cliffhanger.   Julia has given Magg...
