Dark Shadows Discussion Thread
The Adam material was one of my least favorite elements of Dark Shadows (and I still hate that the ending Carolyn got in the tie-up TV Guide article was reuniting with Adam - I won't even go into my feelings on THAT relationship), so I can't agree with the article, but Rodan was a strong presence and I'm sorry to hear he has passed away. Lots of DS actors passing this year.

The most dangerous part of the legislation is the legislature can now overturn results in various areas, overruling local officials.

Thanks for finding those, @watson71 . Seeing all the shots of the Shea family reminds me of why so many viewers may have left the show in these years. What was the point of watching when so many characters who were introduced would just end up being killed off? Harry Shea's wife was killed, then some months later he was killed. Similar to Jerry Grove's mother, to Russ' wife Tracy, her manager, Bob Morgan, on and on. It adds such a gloomy vibe to this period.

The Beltway laps this [!@#$%^&*] up every time.

That Ashley Parker piece is beyond sad. This is such a hivemind, determined to foist their view onto the public no matter what. Speaking of agendas, I saw someone, maybe "Hotline Josh," claiming that Democrats should be happy about the voter suppression bills because they will spike turnout. I hate this type of "clever" Beltway thinking. So manipulative.

German soaps: GZSZ, UU & AWZ
Fascinating update. I hope that show has less awful judges than the American versions. I wonder if he will pop up on the VL revival.

I would ask if Joe Manchin, Sinema and the rest are fine with this image, but I don't want to know the answer.

I never had a lot of use for his story on Designing Women but I always liked him. He was a great guest star for many shows. I never knew he and Jean Smart were married.

Guest-starring Adam Nagourney, who I hadn't thought of in years (he was a big hack in the W era).

https://deadline.com/2021/03/craig-mums-grant-dead-oz-hightown-slam-poetry-1234721763/ Poet was one of the more consistent and compelling characters on Oz for me - his arc was so incredibly depressing in a way that felt much more real than a lot of the melodrama on the show did.

I'm glad she passed away in her sleep. She's one of those people I thought would always be around - it's shaken me up. What a body of work she left behind.

Knots Landing
So sad to hear this. Really upset me today. I know KL wasn't a big role for her (it wasn't even her biggest soap role - that was Bare Essence), but her episode was one of the first I saw, and I just loved her work. She and Michele Lee played off each other so believably.

@Vee I also saw this. There seems to be far more effort from the Beltway to try to frame and cheerlead her consistently poor and self-absorbed efforts (she was also the one who got giddy over rushing up to Lisa Murkwoski to show her tweets from Neera Tanden) than to actually cover today's America. I also saw various idiots on the right trying to make Biden saying he had joined the Senate 120 years ago into a big thing. Pathetic. And this, referencing W's grimy, slimy ex-mouthpiece.

This is going to become a drinking game.- Loving/The City Discussion Thread
I think one of the problems is that the found families for most of The City's lifespan were unknown or barely known to viewers. There weren't that many longstanding friendships to carry over.- Another World Discussion Thread

The Washington Post tends to get an unearned pass, but they consistently have the most cutesy, desperate-to-be-liked "reporters" around. Somehow this makes me cringe even more than when Dave Weigel was reposting Salo images to try to get anyone to believe the trust fund kids at Chapo wouldn't walk over his corpse.- Oh no, ANOTHER Mass Shooting in the U.S. SMH

I always enjoy these episodes more with commercials. The Canadian ads added a different flavor. I know this is not seen as a great period for the show, but aside from those boring, overlong Colton scenes, I thought it was a decent episode. The Jerome family crime drama was gripping - loved seeing Linda Cristal too. - The Politics Thread
